XNA Game Studio 4.0 does not show in installed templates

Question

I've been using XNA Game Studio 4.0 with Visual Studio 2013 Express Desktop Edition for a few weeks now.

Recently, Visual Studio stopped working, saying that it:

could not find all components

I worked around this problem by choosing "repair" from it's setup.

However, it stopped showing XNA as an installed template.

Things I have already tried:

• Uninstalling and re-installing Visual Studio
• XNA Game Studio

I tried uninstalling XNA Game Studio, but there is no uninstall.exe anywhere, it does not show in "Programs and Features" in Control Panel, and in the Start Menu also it does not have any uninstall features.

As of now, XNA is not part of my installed templates, but it is installed. When I try to install it again it says

"This extension is already installed to all applicable products".

Answer 1

I finally figured it out!

The problem lied in the Visual Studio software, which stopped working and had to be re-installed (as I mentioned earlier).

After that, XNA was still installed but not showing as an installed template. So, in Visual Studio, I went in Tools->Extensions and Updates. In installed templates, it was empty. But after typing "XNA Game Studio" in the search bar, it showed XNA.

The problem was, that it was disabled. Just enable it and it'll start working like perfect and show up in your installed templates.

I really appreciate the help given to me by @Salah Akbari. Seriously, all suggestions and help is really appreciated.
