Are you having issues creating native projects?

  • Artikel

If you've tried to create a smart device Win32 project on Windows Vista or after installing IE7, you might have seen a failure with a message in the status bar saying "project creation failed". It's a known issue, and has been fixed in SP1, but if you can't install that, there's a workaround:

1. Close VS

2. Start RegEdit.exe

3. Find the following registry entry:

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Ext\PreApproved

4. Add a new entry and name it

{D245F352-3F45-4516-B1E6-04608DA126CC}

5. Close RegEdit

6. Start VS

7. Try to create a Smart Device C++ project

Thanks to Gangadhar on the VC++ for Devices team for the writeup, and Chris for posing the question on the Device MVPs discussion list.

    Thanks, this tip saved the day! Can you explain how this hocus-pocus works?

    IIRC (this is all a little fuzzy now, not having worked on it for a long time) the change adds the control required for the wizard to run to the pre-approved controls list for IE, allowing it to be loaded for sites on the local host. Because the wizards are based on HTML, they actually host IE. Without this change, the control that enumerates available device platforms, etc. will fail to load, and the wizard will terminate. Cheers!
