If you run “Unregister Guidance Package” recipe or uninstalled Guidance Package and still can see Package in “Add New Project” dialogue you may have to follow these steps.
Go to directory ‘C:\Documents and Settings\All Users\Application Data\Microsoft\Recipe Framework’
You will find file ‘RecipeFramework.xml’ here.
This file contains entries for all Guidance Package which are installed on machine.
Ensure if entry is removed from here after uninstalling guidance package.
If problem still persists go to registry and browse to key ‘HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\VisualStudio\8.0\Packages’
Here you will find folder which starts from ‘77’. For example:
This key will have folder named ‘Templates’ which has entries for all Guidance Packages installed on machine. Check each key to find your Guidance package. Attribute PackageName will help to find this.
Once you found you package entry copy key and search in whole registry and delete wherever found.
Close registry and open “Add New Project” Dialogue from Visual Studio. Entry for uninstalled package would have removed now.
