I got a message today, when I got into VS 2010, that there was an upgrade to the Telerik WPF toolkit to 2011.3.1116.0. However, I'm now having problems getting it installed. I think it may be because I hadn't launched VS 2010 as an administrator; I ran it as a regular user. When I did, it complained that it couldn't uninstall something (the preivous version, I believe). Now, every time I get into VS 2010 I get a message saying that VS Extension Manager sees an update from version 2011.2.915.0 to 2011.3.1116.0. When I tell it to run the upgrade, it now fails with the error message:
"Microsoft Visual Studio
The extension could not be installed because the folllwing error occurred:
Telerik WPF VSExtensions is already installed"
I'm running this on a Windows 7 Ultimate machine, 32-bit.

Seeing the same thing... Errors out with "already installed" when the update actually didn't even get past clicking install button.

I hate to say it, but it's nice to know that I'm not alone.

Hi,
I tried to reproduce the issue, but everything works fine at our side. WPF VSExtensions were sucessfully upgraded from version 2011.2.915.0 to 2011.3.1116.0.
I would suggest the following steps that could workaround the problem though:

I would suggest the following steps that could workaround the problem though:
- Open Visual Studio 2010 and go to Tools -> Extension Manager...
- Uninstall Telerik WPF VSExtensions available in the Installed Extensions section of the Extension Manager.
- After that restart VS2010 if it prompts to.
- Go to the Online Gallery section in the Extension Manager and search for Telerik WPF VSExtensions. Download and install them and restart VS2010.
I hope this will help.

I guess that worked. I uninstalled the WPF VSExtensions, which got me out of VS 2010, and then got back into it, went back into Extension Manager and searched for Telerik WPF VSExtensions. I found it, but it said that it was already installed. I re-enabled it, got back out of VS 2010 and got back in, and VS 2010 seems OK with that.
