Cannot install VS2010 SP1 - visual-studio-2010

I believe this falls under the "software tools" requirement. :)
I have tried to install VS2010 SP1 twice. Both times, it installed successfully, but when I open up VS2010, it still says RTMLDR.
I'm just trying to do this so I can install the WP 7.1 SDK, but when I try to do this after "installing" SP1, the SDK installer says that I need SP1.
I did some searching online, but have only found information regarding actually errors during the installation.
Here's the info in the dialog:

I looked at Add/Remove programs and didn't actually see SP1 there.
I have disabled Indent Guides, PowerCommands, Productivity Power Tools, an VSCommands 2010, since I know I've updated to SP1 on another system that had .NETMF 4.1 and WiX. Then I reinstalled SP1 and it's still coming up as RTM. I looked for the KB numbers in "uninstall an update", and sure enough, they are not there.
I then uninstalled .NETMF 4.1 and WiX 3.5 and that didn't help either. I then did a repair on my VS2010 installation -- no luck. And now I've just uninstalled and reinstalled VS2010, and I still cannot get SP1 installed. Once again, no errors are reported after installation.
Has anyone else had this problem, and if so, how did you fix it?

How to allow Visual Studio to upgrade the project automatically?

I have some compatibility problems with vs 2010 file opened in vs 2013, i have read that maybe i can solve it activating the option "upgrade project automaticcaly" but i can't find it. Where i can find this option in Visual Studio 2013 Express?
EDIT
I can't launch the project ,i have tried in VS2010 Express , VS2012 Express , VS2013 Express... It seems so strange, it's an official demo of kinect sdk.
EDIT
Suddenly it starts work on visual studio 2010
It's not a project upgrade issue but the sounds of that error message - VS2013 Express doesn't support the project type you are trying to open.
The following page describes the s/w requirements for use that project
Kinect or Windows SDK
Specifically the s/w dev requirements are:
Visual Studio 2010, or Visual Studio 2012. The free Express editions can be downloaded from Microsoft Visual Studio 2010 Express or Microsoft Visual Studio 2012 Express.
.NET Framework 4 (installed with Visual Studio 2010), or .NET Framework 4.5 (installed with Visual Studio 2012).
There are a lot of other requirements also listed on that page.
I would suggest you download VS2012 Express (its free) and work from there.

Visual Basic 2010 - Creating a Silverlight project?

Hello,
My operating system is Windows 7 - SP1 (64bit). I tried to create a Silverlight project in Visual Basic 2010 (Visual Studio 2010 Ultimate - SP1). Complete Install expect SQL Server 2008 Express SP1 (x64). But I got this message,
So I went to that link shown above (here it is) and downloaded the Microsoft Silverlight 4 Tools for Visual Studio 2010 and tried to install it and this is the message I get,
The link in the above message leads here. What needs to be done here to create a Silverlight project in Visual Basic 2010?
Thanks for Vinicius for the help in above comments.
This is what I did. I went to Programs and Features in Control Panel and uninstalled everything with the term "Visual Studio 2010". Then installed Visual Studio 2010 again. That's it. It worked. It created the Silverlight project with Silverlight 3. I also installed Microsoft Silverlight 4 Tools for Visual Studio 2010 after that and it created the project.

edit: I really should have mentioned that I was talking about the 2010 editions of VS. My mistake.

Why is Visual Studio 2010 reading project files continously?

I turned process monitoring on and I noticed that vs 2010 doesn't stand still, it continuously reads the project files in the solution. Wtf?
I have this solution that progressively becomes slower and slower to the point where when I type in the C# editor the letters appear a few seconds later.
Below there is some info about the environment:
Is there anything I can do? And I am using TFS.

After more usage, I noticed that it has to do with Resharper and running multiple instances of Visual Studio. As soon as I start having 3 or more instances vs2010 slows down. I also reported this issue to the Resharper folks.
Without resharper the ide was fast - I haven't tried though running multiple instances without resharper.
Since I love resharper I now use only one instance of vs 2010 and open others only when I need them and close them as soon as I don't need them.
