Nice work. I will try it soon. But how much time does it cost to switch between environments?

Well, that all depends on how fast your system is. It will take a couple of minutes. But, this skips the installation of the patch and the SDK which are the most time consuming parts of the install so it cuts down considerably the install time. The SDKs can both be installed at the same time so you don't need to reinstall those. And the patch that ships with the SL3 tools works with the SL2 tools, so no need to reinstall that either.

Will there be any reason to support Silverlight 2 targets within Visual Studio 2010? Why not only the latest SL is to be supported?

Thank you for nice tool!!

But, Isn't not "silverlight_UninstallSLTools3B1Vwdx.exe" but "VWDX_SilverlightTools_Setup.exe -u" better?

Because Translate Wizard is opened when I open Silverlight 2 Project.

@Denis

The motivation in having VS 2010 support multiple versions of Silverlight is to support future versions. So, when Silverlight 4 is released, you will install the Silverlight 4 SDK and VS 2010 will recognize it and let you target that version.

Regarding Silverlight 2 development after SL3 has released, some enterprise developers need to support older versions of the platform if their administrator is slow to do the runtime updates.

This script will work with the Japanese version of the tools if you download the Japanese installers for Silverlight Tools

But when you switch SDKs, can you make it switch the runtime installed in the browser as well? I need to test my SL2 apps in SL2 to see any bugs that may be present in SL2 but fixed in SL3.
