   Could you offer some insight on what
   benefits Autodesk's wizard offers, that
   Visual Studio project and item templates
   are lacking?

   I'm probably not best-placed to comment, as I don't use the tool myself. Here is some commentary from me on the initial (pre-)release of the tool, in case that helps.

   Wouldn't install for me on Win 7 x64 with AutoCAD 2010 & 2011. The VBA enabler is also installed for both of those, as are the ARX toolkits Also, curiously wouldn't repair or uninstall. It gave the same errors from the listing in add/remove programs, which would seem to indicate the installer didn't crash very gracefully. That entry shouldn't be there.

   This probably isn't the place to look for answers but the Internet is a very big place and Autodesk often hides its answers very well.

   Solved. After much frustration I found it was "blocked" in much the same way that CHM files are blocked when you copy them from another computer. To unblock it, right click - Properties - down at the bottom there is an "unblock" button. After I unblocked it the installation went fine. I hope this helps someone out there.

   Just to let you know the response...

   This is "as designed". The installer makes use of a VBScript file, and so needs to run in this way. This is documented in the Wizard's ReadMe.
