In the past few issues I’ve covered basic considerations you should plan for before installing Windows Home Server 2011 and the actual installation of WHS 2011.I plan to continue the series but before I get started I wanted to share the fact that Microsoft has greatly lowered the price of this great software!
If you ask Visual WebGui 6.4’s installer to include documentation in the install, it looks for Microsoft Document Explorer. But Document Explorer is no longer included in Visual Studio 2010 (complaints, Microsoft’s story). So where can I get Document Explorer?
A comment in this thread recommends installing Document Explorer from the Visual Studio 2008 media. But what if you are using Visual Web Developer Express? I couldn’t find Document Explorer on the VWD 2008 media.
Download google com search. After some hunting around, I found that Commerce Server offers a “prerequisite cabinet (CAB) file” that includes Document Explorer 2005 (DExplore.exe). I downloaded one 34MB cab file, extracted DExplore.exe and installed it. After that, Visual WebGui no longer complained about the missing Document Explorer.
To find the CAB files:
Direct links to the English CAB files:
Server 2008 32-bit: http://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?linkid=63706
Server 2008 64-bit: http://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?linkid=63730 Best imac for recording music.
The 32-bit installer worked fine under Windows 7. Visual WebGui documentation is available in the Document Explorer:
Alternatives
If all you need is Visual WebGui documentation, these alternatives may be easier:

If you need Document Explorer 2008, you can find the 32-bit English version in the MSDN Library for Visual Studio 2008 SP1. After you complete that 2.2GB download, open the .iso file and extract the 10MB installer (wcuDExploreDExplore.exe). (If you find a smaller package that includes Document Explorer 2008, please post a comment below.)
