I have visual studio 2005 team edition for software developers and i have
installed WSE 3.0, but the WSE Settings Tool does not appear on the solution
explorer content menu.

it also does not appear at the add-in manager, and of course i chosed the
visual studio developer option at the installation process of WSE.

wath else can i do?
thanks

Hi Recardo,
Perhaps the add-in is disabled. You can check that in the "add-in manager"
option under the "Tools" menu.

I recall reading somewhere that when you install WSE 3.0 you need to have
VS2005 running, in order for the add-in to register properly. Otherwise the
error you have described occurs. May be worth trying, anyway. Uninstall and
then install again, with VS running. Let me know if this works.

According to this blog post
(http://www.pheedo.com/click.phdo?i=8cf44517444a5909fc8d4fed7b914423), if
you installed wse using the CUSTOM option, rather than the DEVELOPER option,
the add-in does not get added in unless you explictly choose that option
during hte setup.

I'll take a stab that this is what happened to you.

Try the install again and either use the developer option or be sure to
check for that "ADD-IN" setting if you use the custom install.

You can re-register the WSE Addin Tool with this command

devenv.exe /resetaddin WseSettings.Connect /command File.Exit

Thanks, Mark Fussell

I had the same problem (on a machine running a non-english version of
windows).

I fixed it according to the instructions in this blog post:
