no "open file/project" dialog in VS2010 RTM ?

hi there

 

when i select

 

• "File->Open->Project/Solution..." or
  
• "File->Open->File..." or
  
• "theme -> customize -> import"
  

 

does not display a file open dialog box. The toolbar button for the equivalent action also does not do anything. The IDE window will flash breifly as if it is opening the dialog, but then goes back to normal (under windows Aero, with dual monitor)

 

however, if i change it to windows 7 basic theme, the same thing will happens, but there are different error dialog pop up at each of above:

 

• "the operation could not be completed. ClassFactory cannot supply requested class"
  
• "Creating an instance of the COM component with CLSID {DC1C5A9C-E88A-4dde-A5A1-60F82A20AEF7} from the IClassFactory failed due to the following error: 8004011"
  

 

however the open file dialog seems to work fine in any other applications (including VS2008)... any idea ?

 

thanks in advance
