I installed VS2005 beta 2 today and I'm getting a message that says:

Package "Visual Studio Explorers and Designers Package" has failed to load
properly.

There should be more information when you get these error messages. So
could you post the full messages you get please?

For a simple and quick test, could you try following steps and let me know
if the problem can be resolved.
tools->import export options and check reset all settings.

Thanks,

I am getting what appears to be the same error. My full error text is:
Package 'Visual Studio Explorers and Designers Package' has failed to load
properly (guid={....}). Please contact your vendor for assistance.
Application restart is recommended, due to possible environment corruption.
Would you like to disable loading this package in the future? You may use
'devenv /resetskippkgs' to re-enable package loading.
Yes / No

Any help you could offer would be appreciated.

Hi,

I just installed Visual Studio 2005 for the second time. Previously I
had VS 2003 installed and installed 2005 next to it. I got the same
error message as mentioned earlier in this thread. Then I uninstalled
all VS versions and frameworks before installing VS 2005 again.
Unfortunately I keep getting the same error. Full error text is:

Package 'Visual Studio Explorers and Designers Package' has failed to
load
properly (guid={....}). Please contact your vendor for assistance.
Application restart is recommended, due to possible environment
corruption.
Would you like to disable loading this package in the future? You may
use
'devenv /resetskippkgs' to re-enable package loading.
Yes / No

Did anyone already find out how to fix this bugger.
Regards,
Joost
