    Hi Avkash, Can't install 64bit update since i have a "missing msi" error while running the SDK Upgrade. Currently installed versions are SDK: 1.3.11122.038 Tools: 1.3.31122.1601 Thanks

    Links don't seem to be for the correct files. I've upgraded, uninstalled & reinstalled the SDK several times, with both the 'full refresh' and '64bit upgrade link', nothing results in the version number in 'Programs and Features' changing.
