Uninstall a VSI File

If you want to uninstall a VSI file for Visual Studio .NET 2005, its kinda hard to figure out what is going on.  I didn't find anyway any way in the Control Panel applet.  I couldn't find it in the Visual Studio Directory.  It was driving me up the wall.  Well, it appears the files are stored in the "My Documents\Visual Studio 2005\Templates\Project Templates" directory.  Delete the file and its uninstalled.  Life is better.

wally -- there are also a bunch of VSI power toys at: http://workspaces.gotdotnet.com/CCIPowerToys including one that helps you uninstall content that was installed using the content community installer formats.

Thanks for that tip. Also, if you want to make a vsi you need to "Export Template" which creates a .vscontent file without which you are sunk. Then play around with your xml files and zips. It does work eventually!
