Visio 2005 Enterprise Architect installation issue - visio

My laptop is Windows 7 Professional 64-bit.
At my job I was given Visio 2005 Enterprise Architect to install. It is a file named en_visio_enterprise_architects_2005.iso. I unpacked it and then run the SETUP.EXE as an administrator. It was successfully installed in C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Office\Visio11 folder.
But when I open it and click on Help --> About Microsoft Office Visio to open About Microsoft Office Visio window, it is showing
Microsoft Office Visio for Enterprise Architects (11.4301.8405)
Copyright 1991-2003 Microsoft Corporation. All rights reserved.
So it is Visio 2003 and not Visio 2005. How come Visio 2005 is being installed as Visio 2003? What am I missing here?
Thanks

There is no Visio 2005. V2003 got followed by V2007.
What you've got is a special distribution with V2003 inside.

Does anyone know if the TFS Office Add In will work in a Citrix environment?

We're rolling out the VSTS Azure solution enterprise wide and have some users that will need to use a Citrix environment. Does anyone know if the TFS Office Addin (Office 2016) for work item updates, etc will work in a Citrix environment?
I know it installs to
C:\Program Files\Common Files\microsoft shared\Team Foundation Server\15.0\x86\TFSOfficeAdd-in.dll
Well, you can try below things to use the TFS Office Add-in on your Citrix VMs (Windows only):
Install Microsoft Office (Office 2016 in your scenario), then install
Visual Studio or at least install the Team Explorer, the TFS
Office Add-in will automatically integrate to office.
If you don't want to install Visual Studio/Team Explorer, then you can use the TFS
Office Integration Installer (Download from here). This new
installer just includes the Office integration component (Excel,
Project, etc) and is therefore lighter weight. See this blog : TFS
Office Integration Installer
You can reference this blog for details : Work with VSTS (or TFS) Work Items from Excel without installing Team Explorer
If you cannot see the Team ribbon in excel, you can refer to below article for troubleshooting: TFS-Office integration issues

TFS Build: `Microsoft.TeamFoundation.PowerShell' is not installed on this computer

When I'm logged in to tfs build server using local account and execute following powershell command:
Add-PSSnapin Microsoft.TeamFoundation.PowerShell
it loads the tfs cmdlets correctly. However, when I trigger a build on tfs server that invokes the script, it fails with message:
'Microsoft.TeamFoundation.PowerShell' is not installed on this computer.
The build agent runs under service account. What should I do?
EDIT:
I had to edit the reqistry entry from the first link in #Alexis Coles' answer to make it work with version 2015 of TFS PowerTools:
Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\PowerShell\1\PowerShellSnapIns\Microsoft.TeamFoundation.PowerShell]
"PowerShellVersion"="4.0"
"Vendor"="Microsoft Corporation"
"Description"="This is a PowerShell snap-in that includes the Team Foundation Server cmdlets."
"VendorIndirect"="Microsoft.TeamFoundation.PowerShell,Microsoft"
"DescriptionIndirect"="Microsoft.TeamFoundation.PowerShell,This is a PowerShell snap-in that includes the Team Foundation Server cmdlets."
"Version"="14.0.0.0"
"ApplicationBase"="C:\\Program Files (x86)\\Microsoft Team Foundation Server 2015 Power Tools"
"AssemblyName"="Microsoft.TeamFoundation.PowerTools.PowerShell, Version=14.0.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=b03f5f7f11d50a3a"
"ModuleName"="C:\\Program Files (x86)\\Microsoft Team Foundation Server 2015 Power Tools\\Microsoft.TeamFoundation.PowerTools.PowerShell.dll"
"CustomPSSnapInType"="Microsoft.TeamFoundation.PowerTools.PowerShell.TFPSSnapIn"
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Wow6432Node\Microsoft\PowerShell\1\PowerShellSnapIns\Microsoft.TeamFoundation.PowerShell]
"PowerShellVersion"="4.0"
"Vendor"="Microsoft Corporation"
"Description"="This is a PowerShell snap-in that includes the Team Foundation Server cmdlets."
"VendorIndirect"="Microsoft.TeamFoundation.PowerShell,Microsoft"
"DescriptionIndirect"="Microsoft.TeamFoundation.PowerShell,This is a PowerShell snap-in that includes the Team Foundation Server cmdlets."
"Version"="14.0.0.0"
"ApplicationBase"="C:\\Program Files (x86)\\Microsoft Team Foundation Server 2015 Power Tools"
"AssemblyName"="Microsoft.TeamFoundation.PowerTools.PowerShell, Version=14.0.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=b03f5f7f11d50a3a"
"ModuleName"="C:\\Program Files (x86)\\Microsoft Team Foundation Server 2015 Power Tools\\Microsoft.TeamFoundation.PowerTools.PowerShell.dll"
"CustomPSSnapInType"="Microsoft.TeamFoundation.PowerTools.PowerShell.TFPSSnapIn"
Double check AssemblyName, ApplicationBase, ModuleName and Version entries. Script above works with Microsoft Team Foundation Server 2015 Power Tools
I had this issue and to solve I notice that by default the cmdlets are not added during the PowerTools installation. You need to run a full install to make it work.
I posted here some pictures:

I am going to have a quick punt here and say it is probably something to do with 32-bit vs 64-bit powershell. If I run Add-PSSnapinicrosoft.TeamFoundation.PowerShell from normal 64-bit powershell fine. But if I run it from C:\Windows\SysWOW64\WindowsPowerShell\v1.0\powershell_ise.exe I get the above exception. I am going to go ahead and say that the build server is a 32-bit application and there for starting a 32-bit runtime.
Not really sure what the fix is exactly but maybe the following will point you in the right direction.
PowerShell (2.0, 32-bit) can't load TFS 2010 snap-in... except when it can

For me it was another issue because I was trying to use Power Tools with only Visual Studio 2017 Pro installed.
For Visual Studio 2017 they didn't released Microsoft Team Foundation Server 2017 Power Tools. They are saying that the previous version it should work with any higher version of Visual Studio that has TFS.
The problem is that if you have only Visual Studio 2017 installed you will not be able to install Microsoft Team Foundation Server 2015 Power Tools for example, because having Visual Studio 2015 (any version) installed is a requirement for installing Microsoft Team Foundation Server 2015 Power Tools.
In other words I had to install Visual Sudio 2015 then install Microsoft Team Foundation Server 2015 Power Tools and then Add-PSSnapin Microsoft.TeamFoundation.PowerShell worked.

Hopefully this would help somebody.

How to install SSRS 2008 plugin for VS 2008sp1

I want to design a report with new SSRS feature called tablix, but it seems I've previous version of SSRS installed because instead of tablices there are matrices, tables and lists.
Where can I get a newer version of SSRS? (I've already googled all over the web but have found nothing)

Visual Studio 2010 RC with Office 2010 and Office 2007 installed

I have Visual Studio 2010 installed on my Windows XP development machine along with Office 2007 Professional and Office 2010 Professional. I am trying to develop several add-ins for Office 2007; however, I prefer to use Office 2010 on a day-to-day basis.
How do I set Visual Studio 2010 to install the add-in and open Word 2007 when I press debug? Currently, Word 2010 opens, but does not recognize the add-in. Unless I have to, I would like to keep Office 2010 installed.
I don't know the specific answer to your question, but I am running Office 2010 and still working on Office 2007 add-in development.
My solution to this problem has been virtual machines. I don't do any development work on my laptop's primary OS. I don't even have Visual Studio installed there, but I am running Office 2010 and really like it so far.
For development I've got dozens of different VMs with various configurations of OS and Office version and other 3rd party software that I need to integrate with. I'm currently using Windows 7 and the new version of Windows Virtual PC, but I started this practice when I was using Windows XP and Virtual PC 2007.
One benefit of this is that if something goes wrong on one of my VMs, it doesn't bring down my whole machine.
I also don't start from scratch each time I need a new VM. I've got base images with only the OS installed, as well as OS + Office and OS + Office + Visual Studio, but nothing else. That way, whenever I need a new VM, I just make a copy of the base image that's closest to what I need and go from there. The only limitation is that the base images can't be joined to a domain, but that's not a big deal for me.
I would encourage you to try this yourself. It works great.
