I installed Visual Studio 2005 Beta 1. When I try to create a new project, I
am getting following error,
"File or assembly name
'file:///C:\WINDOWS\Microsoft.NET\Framework\v2.0.40426\MSBuildEngine.dll', or
one of its dependencies, was not found."
There is no MSBuildEngine.dll installed by setup in
C:\WINDOWS\Microsoft.NET\Framework\v2.0.40426\ folder. However there is one
Microsoft.Build.Engine.dll in that folder. I was wondering if this is the
same. (Though renaming Microsoft.Build.Engine.dll to MSBuildEngine.dll
doesn't help).
Thanks!

If I had an answer for you, I'd put it here, but if nobody else responds
here, consider trying the VS2005 (Beta) newsgroups here:

I followed following steps to resolve this issue,
1. Uninstalled Visual Studio .NET 2005
2. Uninstalled .NET Framework 2.0
3. Deleted %windir%\Microsoft.NET\Framework\v2.0.xxxxx folder
4. Deleted Drive:/Program Files\Microsoft Visual Studio 8 folder
5. Deleted HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE/Software/Microsoft/Visual Studio/8.0 registry
key
6. Reinstalled Visual Studio .NET 2005
Thanks!
