I have Visual Studio 2010 and I have installed the 1.0.1 Silver light viewer for ArcGIS.  I wanted to try and create some add-ins but I am having issues.  I've installed both of these:

ArcGISExtensibility2_4__en
ArcGISSilverlightViewer1_0_1_x64_en

However, when I go to VS2010 and click on File/New/Project/Other Languages/Visual C#/Silverlight/ I only have these options:

Silverlight Application
Silverlight Class Library
Silverlight Navigation Application

I do not see anything ESRI.  What am I doing wrong?

Here is a screenshot so you can see where the template can be found. If you expand silverlight and do not see the ESRI Viewer option than I am not sure what is going on. I have the ESRI Silverlight API installed. The Silverlight Viewer Installation guide doesn't say it is needed but i never tried without.

Hi Michael,

To start, can you uninstall and reinstall the Extensibility SDK? Also, the ArcGIS API for Silverlight is included when you install the Extensibility SDK, so you don't need to install that separately.

Katy:  Which one of these do you want me to uninstall?  Do you want me to use the add/remove to do this?

This is all I see in Visual Studio 2010.  BTW I have the professional and am using Windows 7 with 64 bit.

Hi Michael,

Go ahead and uninstall both the ArcGIS Extensibility 2.2 and ArcGIS Extensibility SDK for Silverlight 2.4. Use Add/Remove programs for this. Then reinstall the ArcGIS Extensibility SDK for Silverlight 2.4.

Let me know how that goes.

It went bad as I have the same results.  Any other thoughts?

Hi Michael,
Do you happen to have your Visual Studio in a non-default location, instead of C:\Program Files\?
If so, then take a look at http://forums.arcgis.com/threads/48114-Issues-with-2.4-Extensibility-Kit-Installation .
Hope this helps.

Hi Michael,

As mentioned by Gerardo, is there any chance your Visual Studio installation is not in the default location? This is a known issue, and if it is the case we can help you with the workaround.

Yes I think it is.  How can I fix this in as few as steps as needed?

E:\Visual Studio 2010 VB Web\Silverlight

Also I am heading to the ESRI conference and was hoping they might have just a training session for the Silverlight viewer.  I see they have one for Silverlight.  Will that be useful to me.  I'm deciding between Silverlight and Flex right now.  They both have their good and bad qualities.  I like the ease of use of Silverlight to do little things to the layers like the popups/symbology etc. . .  I just wish I could do a bookmark like I can in Flex to have the user be able to zoom to an area quickly.  I guess another post.
