I have a problem with the menu item 'File -> New -> Project'.
I have, as I believe it to be, a standard solution with the 2 c++ projects and a c# package project. Everything builds and works correctly and as expected in regards to the /ranu and /setup switch and the whole HKLM and HKCU story. Even, when I update the pkgdef and pkgundef files with the needed registrations, everything works as expected. Also, both vsct files (stubb/package) are, as far as I know, is straight out of the box. Finaly, I've checked the registry settings for the package, its project factory etc. All seems to be in order and still, for the life of me, I can't figure out why I'm not seeing the 'File -> New -> Project' menu anymore once i run the compiled shell application.
When I add the following to eather the pkgdef or the pkgundef files, I can see clearly that the menu option 'File -> New -> Website' is eather available or not available based on which file the registration data was placed.
Is there a package that needs to be registered in order to get the menu option back? I checked the list on James Lau's blog and they all seem to be registered in the correct hive (HKCU\Software\Microsoft\AppEnv\9.0\Apps\<packagename>_GUID\Configuration\Packages)
So, after a full week of Googling my *ss off and looking for the solution, is there any1 that can help me on this one?
Using Visual Studio 2008 Pro SP1
Visual Studio 2008 SDK 1.1
