Dear Microsoft, please remove Linq warning message box (when you open a solution with Linq preview installed) saying:
This is an unsupported version of Microsoft Visual C# 3.0. As such many features may not work as expected.
I can understand the need for it but once per installation should be more than enough. Looking at the same warning everytime I open Visual Studio 2005 is highly annoying. Thanks.
Hm… doesn’t happen for me. Actually I don’t think I ever saw that message.
Interesting. I wonder what triggers it. Now that I think of it – I saw the message before when I was on beta 2. However at certain point in time it dissapeared (I didn’t pay much attention to this phenomenon at that time)
Oliver, did you install support for Visual Studio at all? There is a cmd file in Linq’s bin folder…
I get this regardless if it’s a Linq project or not….
Then I see this:
Symptom: You see the message “This is an unsupported version of Microsoft Visual C# 3.0 / Microsoft Visual Basic 9.0. Therefore, many features may not work as expected” several times when using Visual Studio.
Cause and Workaround:
Oftentimes installed Addins will cause this message to appear multiple times.
You can turn off the message by setting the following
DWORD registry key to 0: HKCU\Software\Microsoft\VisualStudio\8.0\CSharp\Options\Editor\DisplayAlphaWarning.
If you’re using one of the Express editions then change “VisualStudio” to “VBExpress” or “VCSExpress” as appropriate.
But I don’t have a ‘DisplayAlphaWarning’ key, etc…
