MMC 3.0 and .NET 4.0

I was doing a code spike to see if I could get .NET 4 to work with MMC 3.0. All my attempts failed. I googled a bit, and it looks like I'm not the only one.

In a nutshell, you might get lucky, but for the most part it doesn't work.

Here's a post on StackOverflow:

MMC .Net Runtime Version

Here's the official response from Microsoft:

Can not use .Net 4.0 to create MMC SnapIn

Stuff like this is what makes it very hard to trust Microsoft as a developer.

Hi,
did you get further with this? The solution with setting of COMPLUS_Version works but it is not really acceptable. Do you know what implications this has?
Thanks,
Ram

Hi Ram,

I couldn't get any of the workarounds to work with my code. I've basically given up on MMC working with .NET 4.0. I will return to MMC, if Microsoft updates it. Otherwise, I'm staying away from it. I spent about 2 months trying to make it work. That was a total waste of my time.
