I am trying to install Team Explorer on Windows 7 64 bit. Everytime I run the installer, it errors out, and i find the following in the log:

 Microsoft Visual Studio 2008 Shell (integrated mode): ***ERRORLOG EVENT*** : Component Microsoft Visual Studio 2008 Shell (integrated mode) returned an unexpected value.

Not sure how its returning an error when that is what is suppose to be being installed (and no, its not already there)

I tried patching VS, but no good. Could it be because I don’t do a default install? (I like to remove the non c# langauges and other options I know I won’t use)

Thanks

    Found the issue, apparently even though I have admin access to my machine, Team Explorer for 2008 didn’t think so (VS 2005, 2008, SQL 2008, and VS TE 2005 all installed without complaint). I just ended up right clicking and choosing ‘Run as administrator’
