AJAX Control Toolkit Controls Grayed Out - HOW TO FIX

Spent the weekend so far using the new release of Visual Studio 2008 and ASP.NET AJAX. More specifically, I have been using the ASP.NET AJAX Control Toolkit. Adding the new controls to your VS2008 toolbox is a straight-forward process, but when I added them - at first everything was fine - but after a few hours they seemed to magically disappear.

Trying to add them again didn't seem to do anything at all as nothing changed. Right-clicking on the VS2008 toolbox and selecting Show All actually did give me the AJAX controls back in the toolbox (they really never left) BUT - they were all grayed out and I was unable to use them in any of my ASP.NET projects.

AJAX controls error

I tried deleting this group and even reset my entire toolbox - but nothing seemed to change it back. After a bit of wrangling, these are the steps I used to get around the problem (using Windows Vista).

1) Shut down Visual Studio 2008

2) Go to your Task Manager and make sure that the dev.exe process is NOT running. If it is, end the process.

3) Go to C:\Users\[user]\AppData\Local\Microsoft\VisualStudio\9.0 and delete all the .tbd files. There will be four of these files. If you can't seem to navigate to this folder, you will have to go to your Folder options and enable it to see all hidden files and folders.

4) From there, open up Visual Studio 2008 and re-add the group and the controls to your toolbox.

To tell you the truth - I had to run through these steps twice before it actually worked. Not sure of the reason for that - but it worked in the end.

If you also have several visual studio applications open, you will need to close all instances before attempting to install any controls. Otherwise, it won't work at all.

I have run through this process multiple times with no luck. It worked one time and then went back to being grayed out.

The only thing I can figure is the project I am working with is an upgrade from the old AJAX stuff.

Any ideas?

Same here...I'm desperate to get this working for a project I have to have done by Monday, but all resources online point to this article which does not solve the problem for me. I've tried everything and wasted hours and hours on it. Can ANYONE help?????

I have seen two solutions to this problem other than what is mentioned in this article. The first is that many people using a Microsoft wireless mouse and/or keyboard have to issue. Crazy, eh? This makes me think it would be a good idea to unplug/disable any unneeded hardware in your computer (especially Microsoft wireless) and retry your previous steps to see if it corrects the issue. The other solution I stumbled on is to look at the properties of your project and see what FRAMEWORK you are targeting. I opened an asp .net 2.0 site, and was not able to get the AJAX controls to appear until I targeted .NET 3.5. There are other controls that were added to .NET 3.5 that won't be available unless you are working with that framework. Hope this helps!

You must change the target to 3.5 in the property pages and the problem will be solved.

Having the same problem even though everything is setup for 3.5. It works on the laptop, but will not work with my wireless mouse through a KVM switch. I can start VS2008 on the laptop, throw the KVM switch to the wireless and it continues to work. This is a very weird problem. I emailed MS and will post any results.

I had the same problem with VS2008 and the toolkit controls graying out. After doing extensive searching and uninstalling and installing I discovered that it was my MS wireless mouse that I use on the laptop. If you unplug the USB mouse device and then start VS2008 you can see and use the controls.

My problem ended when I unplugged my Microsoft wireless mouse and keyboard and followed these steps:
(1) I quit Visual Studio
(2) I deleted the .tbd files in the (hidden) directory <USER_NAME>\AppData\Local\Microsoft\VisualStudio\9.0
(3) Plugged in a wired mouse and keyboard (USB)
(4) Restarted VisualStudio 2008
(5) Opened a new Web Site project
(6) Added a Tab for the controls
(7) Browsed for and added the AJAXControllToolkit.dll

I guess you don't need to close VS, if you installed everything correctly but still can see the AJAX Extensions tab in the Toolbox for certain project.

You could try to fix it by changing the project property -> Target Framework -> change from .NET Framework 2.0 to 3.5. It works for me.

I thought the whole thing about a problem when using a MS wireless mouse was crazy and ignored the solution. After all else failed I gave in and unplugged the mouse receiver. Guess what? It worked! That's just crazy! Thank you so much for posting this solution!

Any idea on IF Microsoft will every provide any patch for this? With a USB wireless mouse/kb attached to the back of a large case (tucked away) it isn't practical for me to disconnect my input devices (you can't just disconnect one). The idea of having wireless devices was to eliminate clutter, so I don't like the idea of needing to keep a wired setup attached JUST for VS2008.

I was using a Microsoft wireless mouse and my AJAX Control ToolKit controls were disabled, but when I switched to a Dell wireless mouse, the controls worked fine. I will continue to use the Dell wireless mouse until there is a fix for the Microsoft wireless mouse. Hope this helps...

Another user with the MS wireless mouse issue. I think I found a workaround: start VWD 2008 Express (or VS, I would assume), then plug in the mouse. Or unplug/re-plug the mouse after you start the IDE. It's been working for me for the last several minutes. Not an ideal solution, but better than using my laptop's touchpad.

This is unbelievable!! I have been trying to fix my toolbars for days now! I couldn't believe it was my MS wireless mouse/keyboard causing this. That is until I read the posts here today and tried it myself. THANK YOU!!!

Yep, I have the same issue with the Ajax toolkit not showing. I just closed vs2008 and unplugged the usb wireless receiver and started VS2008 and it showed the Toolkit (i think I had to do show all also). I plugged in the wireless USB receiver and the Ajax Toolkit still shows. However if I start another instance of vs2008 with the usb receiver plugged in the new instance will not show the Ajax toolbar, while the instance of vs2008 that was started without the usb receiver plugged in kept showing the Ajax toolkit.

I have a Microsoft wireless mouse and keyboard as well. I just start VS 2008 and press the reset button on the wireless base that resets the keyboard and mouse and the Ajax toolkit shows up. If I close VS 2008 down I have to press the reset button again.

Very weird!

Does anyone else have this 'greyed out toolbox' issue with a wired mouse? My controls comeback if i change the projects property to .net 3.5 - do I still have the same mouse driver problem (I cant seem to fix it by using a different mouse).

I don't believe it. Been banging my head on this for a day. Removed keyboard and it works.

My issue was not with the Ajax control toolkit but rather Infragistics and Telerik Asp.net 3.5 controls. Problem seems to be related to 3.5 version of the framework.

Wow, I've spent a week troubleshooting this problem that I'm having. It's like you are sitting at my computer. I have a Microsoft keyboard but it is not wireless. I will try the trick with the .tbd files. Right now the toolkit is visible in NEW projects, but a current project I'm running doesnt seem to have the toolkit there (when i showall it's grayed). I'm gonna feel great if this works finally!!!

I did as suggested. Altho I'm on an XP box so the path to the tbd files was different.

C:\Documents and Settings\[user]\Local Settings\Application Data\Microsoft\VisualStudio\9.0

Then I went to the property pages and changed the target to 3.5, and the toolbox came up immediately. I did not have to disconnect my (wired) Microsoft keyboard. Ive bookmarked this fix to my favorites, its the ONLY one that I've found to work

In my setup (Vista UE SP1/VS2008 SE) M$ wireless keyboard/mouse is the source(?) of that problem too. So it works like freaking magic now: no "AJAX control toolkit" group present after I start VS2008; then I push "Reset" button on wireless receiver and vuala - the group appears from nowhere with all controls enabled. I've been dealing with M$ products for many years, so I am not complaining, my only polite request to M$ is - could I upgrade my wireless receiver with a treadle, so I don't have to reach for the Reset button with my hand and could conveniently pedal it every time I start VisualStudio?

Internet search is a blessed thing. I could have never imagined that the cause for this problem is using a wrong mouse (MS wireless). After chaging the mouse the AJAX controls were not dimmed out anymore.

It would be fair for MS to come forward and tell what they will do to fix the problem. At least there could be a warning on CodePlex pages to avoid waste of peoples' time and talent.

Unbelievable! Everything was working fine when I had my wireless mouse and wireless keyboard. A few days ago the batteries went flat in the mouse and I swapped to a wired mouse but kept the wireless keyboard. It would seem that was enough to make my AJAX controls to vanish. Two days wasted. But thankyou for this blog. In a thousand years I wouldn't have guessed it was relaetd to my keyboard. Anyway, all I did to fix it was to swap to a wired mouse and keyboard then restart Visual Web Developer. Bingo!

This problem also exists with Wacom Graphire 4 tablet pens. If you run into this problem, just unplug it with VS2008 running, and plug it back in. My condolences to anyone with a computer lodged under the desk... O_o

Disconnecting microsoft usb mouse didn't work. So I went to Website, start options, build and changed target framework to 3.5. After that I was able to view Ajax control toolkit. But if I change to other version, it disappears again.

I don't know how hardware can have an affect on the Control Toolkit not showing up but as Rabi pointed out you need to change the target framework within the site properties to 3.5 if you are using the 3.5 Toolkit. Once you do that, everything shows up like it should.

Yes i had the same problem with the greying out of the AJAX toolkit. I did not think it was installed and I tried it several times. Finally, I tried googling for solutions.

I found this post and viola as someone previously said, it worked!!

I unplugged the MS wireless mouse and the toolkit was enabled when the project was loaded.

Thanks so much. I wish I had found it earlier.

Hi,
I got in stuck in this problem too. I downloaded the Ajax Control Toolkit 3.5 and followed the intructions. I installed the AjaxControlExtender.vsi and added the AjaxControlToolkit.dll into Toolbox. But when creating a new website, i see no where to create an AJAX control toolkit website in "My Templates" corner as in instructions. And when trying to create a "ASP.NET AJAX-Enabled website", i found that the AJAX Control Toolkit i've just added has grayed out. I dont khow how to solve...

Hitting the reset button on the Microsoft Wireless keyboard is what did the trick for me. I'm using VS2008 SP1, 3.5 Frameworks, Windows Vista Ultimate.

I was having a hard time believing the other posts but sure enough ...

The problems seems to recur so when I close VS, open the project, hit the reset button on the wireless receiver then hit the pairing button on the back of the keyboard.

Hard to believe but true.

This worked for me,

in Solution Explorer, right click on your project/website. Select "Property Pages" (should be the very bottom option). A dialog box opens, on the menu to the left select "Build". Change the Target Framework to ".NET Framework 3.5". Select Apply and close the dialog box.

AJAX Toolkit will now show up and options won't be grayed out.

WIRELESS MOUSE/KEYBOARDS HAVE NOTHING TO DO WITH IT ;)

This can easily be fixed:
Create a new folder and copy your project files. Open your project/website from the new folder.

Now it works. This occurs when visual studio/visual web developer saves info about your project. Something is corrupt/missing/not correctly referenced. When you create a new folder, it rebuilds the project info, thus fixing the problem.

I have tried all the options

2. I have created new folder & copy-pasted all the files - NO CHANGE

3. I am not using any wireless devices


What could be the reason, expecting you valuable soultion.
