How can I fix missing IronPython project templates in Visual Studio 2010?

Question

I installed IronPython yesterday. After running Visual Studio the IronPython project template showed up but later it was gone. I've tried repairing, uninstalling, and reinstalling without fixing the issue. How can I make the templates show up?

Answer 1

I uninstalled the version of IronPython I had.

I renamed C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Visual Studio 10.0\Common7\IDE\Extensions\Microsoft\IronStudio to IronStudio-old

I downloaded IronPython 2.7 Beta 1

I installed IronPython 2.7 Beta 1 and the template worked.
