Even though this is my third go-around at installing the .NET 3.0 stuff on various PC’s, I encountered an issue this evening that confused me royally. I downloaded and installed the Vista Win SDK, the .NET 3.0 framework, and the extensions for WCF/WPF on vs 2005. I then went to install the extensions for WF and it kept bringing up the Change/Repair/Remove screen of the Windows SDK (and ofcourse wouldn’t give the option of installing WF extensions, ran a repair for the heck of it and nothing 🙁 ) … Spent some time searching the net and found this blog post that solved the issue for me… The extensions for WF download as a self-extracting exe file… I simply had to change the extension to .zip and run the setup within the zip. It then installed flawlessly.
