This project is not supported by this type of installation.

Hi,

Have you ever got this error

"This project is not supported by this type of installation"

while try to create a new project in VS 2008.

If you have got this then here is simple solution (to try ) which would solve the issue.

From the Start - > Run type devenv /ResetSkipPkgs and press enter.

So what was the issue?

While you open the VS 2008, it might have failed to load the necessary packages which are required to open some project templates. When you use the above mentioned switch it actually finds a package which was new / not loaded previously and load that packages and the error doesn't appear now. :)

Also, you can use both  onTouch  and  onClick  together if necess
