Visual Studio Custom start page for project - visual-studio

I'm trying to create a custom start page for a custom template using Visual Studio.
What am I trying to achieve?
When a user creates a new project using my custom template from VS menu I would like to show a page after the creation of that project in Visual Studio similar to the below-mentioned page.
Any help regarding this is highly appreciated. Thanks in advance.

You just need to click on "show all files" and then you'll be able to see it and include in in your project.

Creating a wizard in C#

I would like to create a wizard to guide a user through some steps in order to create a document based on a template. I found this solution in msdn:
http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/7k3w6w59(v=vs.80).aspx
The problem is that this tutorial creates a wizard as a New Item or New Project in Visual Studio. But I would like a standalone application, one in which my user can run the wizard without having Visual Studio.

Extending VisualStudio

I want to extend Visual Studio such that, when someone right clicks on Solution Explorer, context menu should have a new menu item, say "Open custom form", clicking which should open a form (this form would actually accept some settings and modify config file accordingly)
Q1. Please provide on where should I start for such extension. Couldn't find any reference/tutorial link :(
Q2. What technology can be used to make such a form - Winforms/WPF?
Either Windows Forms or WPF should be fine.

Google Code: explorer-popup-add-in
There's a lot of docs on Visual Studio integration here

As far as I know, there is no wizard for creating reports under Visual Studio 2005.

How to extend project properties page?

Is it possible to add a custom tab to a project properties page in the Visual Studio 2008?
What I want to do is to be able to add a custom tab to properties page for the projects created from default project templates (WPF Application, WPF custom controls library, etc).
Keith,
I'm working on VS add-in for WPF applications localization. I want to be able to manage project specific settings via "project properties" page. I did some research and it seems that it is not possible to extend existing projects in this way.
It seems that during the time this question was asked, this feature was not implemented in Visual Studio SDK.
There's answer for similar question https://stackoverflow.com/a/5325158/2617201 which refers to Microsoft Documentation at Adding and Removing Property Pages. The article refers to Visual Studio 2015 (later versions should have the same feature).
