After installing VS2005.net 's SP1 Beta, I get this error when trying
to edit dataset XSDs

Cannot find custom tool 'MSDataSetGenerator' on this system

I also lost all my Custom Tools in the Tools / Custom Tools menu.

Any idea how to get them back?
 
Hi,

Did you try reporting the issue or searching for it in feedback center?
 
To fix it I did this:
1) Regedit to:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\VisualStudio\8.0\Generators\{164b10b9-b200-11d0-8c61-00a0c91e29d5}\MSDataSetGenerator

2) rename the CLSID to CLSID.OLD then CLSID.backup to CLSID.

3) Restart VS.NET
 
Back
