My Visual Studio 2008 Installation got broken : Fixed

Wednesday, January 15, 2014

Visual Studio 2008 is not working properly in my PC. Its show the message '{Project Name} could not be opened because the Microsoft Visual C# 2008 compiler not be created, Please re-install Visual Studio'.

I have tried as it is in http://connect.microsoft.com/VisualStudio/feedback/details/417251/cannot-create-new-projects-or-open-existing-projects, issue not solved. Yes, the command "devenv /resetskippkgs" works but not improvement on the VS2008.

So my next options is reinstall, but I have tried to reinstall / repair / Un-install  VS2008 ended up as following

Visual-Studio-2008-Repair-error
Visual-Studio-2008-Repair-error

Visual-Studio-2008-Uninstall-error
Visual-Studio-2008-Uninstall-error

Then, I was searching Microsoft tools and found the following which can un-install Visual Studio 2008 even when its failing with the standard uninstall option.
