Installation of Shader Effects BuildTask and Templates.zip contained msi fixed my following VS2008 compilation issue: Error 1 The "ShaderBuildTask.PixelShaderCompile" task could not be loaded from the assembly ShaderBuildTask, Version=1.0.3072.18169, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=44e467d1687af125.

The Client Profile Configuration Designer is useless, certainly not "beta" quality. The default exit code I set for some package is not even saved to the project file, the license agreement I set I not used, when deleting a package then adding it again the program adds a [1] to the file name, then [2] etc, plus numerous other UI bugs.
