OK I'm completely stumped here:

I have installed (and reinstalled) ASP.NET MVC2 installed several times and I still can't see the ASP.NET MVC2 project templates shown in Visual Web Developer 2008 Express.

I had checked the default project directory templates and had verified that those templates are installed, for example these templates files are found C:\Program Files\Microsoft Visual Studio 9.0\Common7\IDE\VWDExpress\ProjectTemplates\CSharp\Web\1033:

EmptyMvcWebApplicationProjectTemplatev2.0.cs.zip
MvcWebApplicationProjectTemplatev2.0.cs.zip

Any idea of tracking what's the problem and fix it?
