CustomTemplateInstaller

CustomTemplateInstaller, developed by Michael McKechney, is an essential tool for developers who frequently work with Visual Studio .NET. It simplifies the otherwise cumbersome and error-prone process of adding a project template entry into the "Add New Item" window. The multi-step, multi-file requirements for this task can be daunting, but with CustomTemplateInstaller, the process is streamlined and efficient.

The latest version, 1.0, is currently available and supports Windows XP Professional, 7, and 8. Listed under the Development Tools category and the IDE subcategory, the utility is invaluable for those looking to enhance their development environment.
