Hi Martin, I could not repeat the problem using your steps with Windows7x64 and Visual Studio 2010. Please see the screenshot below (vs2010_about.jpg): all components are visible and no error message shown. Perhaps you should try reinstalling Connector/NET 6.3.6 or Visual Studio 2010. It is recommended that Visual Studio was closed while installing Connector/NET driver.

Description: An attempt to show Visual Studio 2010 RTM About box results in an error message that the MySQL Connector plug-in could not be loaded. The error message states: "The MySQL Connector Net 6.3.6 package did not load correctly." In the ActivityLog.xml generated after launching Visaul Studio with the /log parameter on the command line, states: Description | Guid | Hr Begin package load [MySQL Connector Net 6.3.6] | {79A115C9-B133-4891-9E7B-242509DAD272} | ERROR SetSite failed for package [MySQL Connector Net 6.3.6] | {79A115C9-B133-4891-9E7B-242509DAD272} | 80004003 - E_POINTER ERROR End package load [MySQL Connector Net 6.3.6] | {79A115C9-B133-4891-9E7B-242509DAD272} | 80004003 - E_POINTER However, it seems that the either IntelliSense, compiling and debugging is working as expected and it is not affected by this issue. How to repeat: 1. Install Visual Studio 2010 RTM on Windows 7 x64 RTM. 2. Install MySQL Connector/NET 6.3.6. 3. Launch Visual Studio 2010 (to also create the ActivityLog.xml, run "devenv.exe /log" instead). 4. Choose Help - About in the menu. An error message should appear now. After clicking Yes on the message box (to continue showing the error message in the future), the MySQL Connector add-in is not shown in the Installed products list on the About box.
