Everytime I start visual studio 2010 I keep getting this error but it still opens and runs normally. I have reinstalled it many times but still the problem persists. Any help with this would be greatly appreciated.
Error Message: The product is not installed properly. Please reinstall.
It is a little hard to help without more information.
Visual Studio has so many components, it is possible that you have not done a "full" reinstall, e.g. removed all components before installing again.
I would recommend you look in the event log or try to diagnose this a little bit further to see what the component actually is that is failing so you can address the exact issue.
Alternatively, this could actually be a problem with a third party component/VS addin which is failing to start with VS - and, by clicking OK, you progress without it - but, reinstalling VS won't fix it.
Again, without more information, it is really hard to help.
Try something like the VS Uninstall utility. Microsoft has gotten better about releasing these tools to scrub their product out of your system (much more effectively than a regular uninstall).
