WP 7.1 SDK on a computer with different language version of VS2010 and Blend4

When I read about release of Windows Phone 7.1 SDK I was so much excited that I wanted to try it immediately.
I could easily install SDK on my personal notebook, where I have both Italian version of Visual Studio 2010 and Expression Blend 4 installed, but I found more troubles on install it on my job computer, where I have English Visual Studio 2010 and Italian Expression Blend.

Using Web Installer I faced the problem of Language Incompatibility with an error message:

Incompatible language version of products
Setup has detected that the following incompatible language version of products or components are installed on youc computer. Please uninstall the following product of components in the specified order: 
*Microsoft Expression Blend 4 and all Expression Blend SDKs

This is not an easy problem, because as we know, Expression Blend licence cannot be deactivated!

I figured to avoid this error message downloading ISO version of WP7.1 SDK and installing each single package it own.

You can find links to ISO images in my previous post (here)


Be sure you already installed Visual Studio 2010 SP1 before continue!

1- Mount iso image on a virtual drive (or burn it!)
2- Go to the WCU folder and then to Windows Phone
3- Install each package you will find in this folder.
4- Reboot your PC manually


Now your Visual Studio 2010 is ready to compile WP7.1 binaries.
Do same for Expression Blend with right language version of ISO and everything will be
