Visual Studio 2010 Express iso- missing vs_setup.msi

[Rohan]

I recently downloaded 'All - Offline Install ISO image file' from
http://www.microsoft.com/express/Downloads/ but when I try to install
Visual C++ 2010 Express, an error was thrown that setup was enable to
find 'vcexpress/vs_setup.msi' on the mounted iso. Any pointers?

I am currently installing from web but want to install it on another
pc with no internet connection. Please help.

Thanks

I just downloaded and burned (using ImgBurn) the ISO you cite. It installed
with no issues on a test machine (no previous VS 2010 installs).

Mounted using what? Try burning the ISO to optical media, then install.

Maybe you have a bad download?

Unfortunately I did not find a good way to verify the ISO. No
"AutoCRC" feature built into the image, and no MD5/ SHA1 sums
anywhere.

All I could do is to use Sysinternals sigcheck
<http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/sysinternals/bb897441.aspx> to at
least verify digital signatures of the files within. There are some
binary files that are not signed, and of course this method does not
detect alterations that lead to an apparently coherent ISO but with
missing files. Anyway, at least it detects altered files; most files,
and the most important ones, *are* signed.

I don't think you can do that.

I have the same problem with an off-line computer. Even if installing
from the ISO, it requires an internet connection to *register*; no
idea if it requires *activation* as well. Unless registered, it will
stop working after 30 days and what is installed is presented as an
*evaluation-only* version. This differs from the 2008 Express
Editions, which did not ask for any key or activation if installed
from the ISO.

I faced the same error. I have copied entire vcexpress/ folder tree to a local drive (first failed attempt was to use a mounted iso image, downloaded directly from M$ ) then I copied vcexpress/vs_setup.ms_ (with underscore sign) to vcexpress/vs_setup.msi (without underscore, type msi instead of ms_ ). Setup went all ok.

I guess this is some intentional trick to force anyone to use MS Install Cleanup wizard which is not available anymore from M$ because of XP support end. So you're gently forced to upgrade your OS he-he to use VC 2010.

Again it seems you are trolling and trying all the old posts here.  Rohan also died when he was working on a very important C++ project.
