Already installed

Hello,

Every time when I debug my solution there appears a very annoying message on my Windows CE device:

Already Installed
-----------------
Microsoft .NET CF 1.0 ENU-String Resource is already installed. Reinstall

How can I switch that off If it's already installed I don't want to reinstall it every time...

Thanks for your help!

    Thanks for your answer. Now I know that I'm not allone! :-)

    Some additional information: I also have updated my VS2003... and I think this update has overwritten something in my configuration.

    Hi Ahmed

    Thank you for your answer. Under the Device Property I only have 2 entries: Deployment Device and the Output File Folder. There is no entry with "Deploy the latest version of .NET CF". I couldn’t find an entry like this neither in the solution properties nor in the project properties.

    Hi, sorry for late again,
    i didn't get the reply alert tell today!!


    anyway, the directions i told before was for VS2005, in VS 2003 they don't exist in the same location.
    i Belive you will find it in:
    Tools -> Options -> Debugging folder
    with different name.


    if this post was helpful please select Yes.

    Hi Rick,

    Do you have a System_SR_enu.cab with a lenght of 0 bytes I have created this with notepad by creating an empty text file and rename it. If the file doesn't exists, I have the same message.

    Hi, sorry for late, i haven't been here for a while...

    anyway, as i understand, when you debug your application to your device, it displays this message every time, right

    if so, then we can prevent the VS from installing .NET CF runtimes every time you debug your appliaction by doing so:
    - in VS Solution explorer, right click your project and select "Properties"
    - select the "Devices" tab, and uncheck the "Deploy the latest version of .NET Comapct framework" box
    - Save the changes and test your project again....

    if it worked for you tell me :D

    Hi, Peter

    When I try that, I get the message Could not find the file "System_SR_enu.cab" on the emulator.

    OK, no answer I think. Unfortunately this post will not appear at the top of the list... so it will be lost.

  • Axel Mamode

    Today I've updated my VS2003. Now I have also this annoying message!
    Any ideas

  • No.1 Of Mew

    Hi,

    I also could not find the entry...

  • Nuno_Salvado

    Now I have found a trick to solve this annoying problem:

    1. Search the file System_SR_enu.cab in the directory ....\Program Files\Microsoft Visual Studio .NET 2003\CompactFrameworkSDK\v1.0.5000\Windows CE\Diagnostics
    2. - Rename the file to System_SR_enu.save (as a backup)
    3. Create a new file with the name System_SR_enu.cab with 0 bytes length (create an empty text file and rename it)
    That works fine now without this anoying message.
