What OS are you trying to install on?

If you run devenv.exe /setup from a command line do you get the same error?

One other thing you could try.

We've had a reports that deleting the windows user and re-adding it (or creating a new user with admin rights) fixed some install problems for other users who have/had the 3.5 Framework installed.

XP Pro.
I did that a couple of days ago and didn't get any errors.

I compared the failed log and a successful log from another machine.

The successful one:
Running Devenv /setup
Checking for Windows Vista...
Registering components actxprxy.dll /s
Checking for Windows Vista...
Registering components "C:\Program Files\Common Files\Microsoft Shared\MSEnv\msenvp.dll" /s
Checking for Windows Vista...
Registering components "C:\Program Files\Common Files\Microsoft Shared\MSEnv\TextMgrP.dll" /s
Checking for Windows Vista...

The failed one:
Running Devenv /setup
Checking for Windows Vista...
Devenv setup failed: Access is denied

Do you think it could have something to do with registering actxprxy.dll?

Thanks

Jason

It is failing when trying to run Devenv /setup. The only place in the code where it would log the error "Devenv setup failed: Access is denied" is the case where Devenv setup throws an exception.

I am not sure which suggestion you are referring to...did you run devenv setup without errors or did you try recreating yourself as a user and you didn't get any errors?

Just to verify...you *do* have both VS2005 and VS2008 on your machine correct? From the log file it looks like you have both.

VS2005 path is: F:\Program Files\Microsoft Visual Studio 8\Common7\IDE\
VS2008 path is: F:\Program Files\Microsoft Visual Studio 9.0\Common7\IDE\

And devenv.exe is located in your "F:\Program Files\Microsoft Visual Studio 8\Common7\IDE\" directory?

I did F:\Program Files\Microsoft Visual Studio 9.0\Common7\IDE\devenv /setup and didn't get any errors.
