VSTO 2010 deployment
I'm hoping there's a solution for this issue. We need to install OPM on around 70 clients and whilst I can deploy the msi files, I cannot seem to get VSTO 2010 installed. I followed the Enterprise Deployment Using Group Policy guide, but the VSTO link no longer works. In fact, Microsoft have replaced the software with a redist.exe file which does not allow for msi extraction.
Without the ability to install VSTO, we cannot deploy OPM and it means quite a bit of manual installation.
Any advice would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks Elissa,
I had found this version. This is what MS replaced the original VSTO executable with. Unfortunately the administrative install (which extracts the msi file) process in the Enterprise GP deployment guide doesn't work with this file. I have found a work-around though, in case others are in the same predicament.
1) Download the vstor_redist.exe from the link above
2) use 7-zip to extract vstor_redist.exe
3) You will see a vstor40 folder. In this folder you will see a number of executables, but the two that you want to further extract with 7-zip are vstor40_x86.exe and vstor40_x64.exe. Both contain their respective msi file.
