Every now and again I unexplainably lose a number of .NET templates, specifically the web templates, but often some other random templates as well. Usually devenv/install or installvstemplates brings them back. But THIS time it didn't. no matter what I tried, I could not get them back. So, after googling the web for I while I found what seems like a foolproof solution:
Install "VS80-KB915364-X86-ENU.exe" and then install "WebApplicationProjectSetup.msi" http://download.microsoft.com/download/8/0/8/8086c312-16b1-4e54-a4cc-80a6c171112e/VS80-KB915364-X86-ENU.exe http://download.microsoft.com/download/9/0/6/906064ce-0bd1-4328-af40-49dca1aef87c/WebApplicationProjectSetup.msi

I think that the Web Application Projects and that KB update were included in the VS2005 SP1, but some people are leary of installing SP1 so this knowledge is perfect for them. Thanks
