Summary: Can't open project with WixUIExtension dependency

Initial Comment:

I’ve just installed the latest wix3.msi (3.0.3097.0) on XP SP2 with VS2008 rtm 
and am getting the following error on attempting to open a solution containing 
a WiX project which includes a dependency on WixUIExtension.  

Error HRESULT E_FAIL has been returned from a call to a COM component.

The project is then marked as unavailable in the IDE.

Command line builds still work with this WiX version.

I also had this problem, and also found it to be a result of having
subdirectories. You can have subdirectories, but you can't include them in
the VS2008 project. I'm referencing WixUIExtension in the project and this
isn't causing any problems.

Hello,

I had the same problems, but it was not a problem of WixUIExtension! I had
some subdirectories within my project:
After removing from the wixproj...

  <ItemGroup>
    <Folder Include="NewFolder1\" />
  </ItemGroup>

... and after CLOSING COMPLETELY DevStudio (yes, just reload doesn't
work!!) and reopening the solution, I could open it normally without
E_FAIL! 

I then just inserted my previously removed resources to the projects'
root, and it works for me.
