Does your Visual Studio 2008 hang after installing Office 2010?


Late night I installed Office 2010 Professional Plus. Here I am, the next morning, and Visual Studio 2008 is freezing, like there "was some invisible dialog window", because it doesn't allow me to click on any IDE element.

In brief, after I open an ASP.NET MVC form, suddenly I'm not allowed to click on anything, icon, dock panel, toolbox, nothing. Weird....

How do I fix this problem?

    You need to run a repair on the “Microsoft Visual Studio Web Authoring Component” that is part of Office 2007.
