I am using vs 2013 update 4 I uninstalled Entity Framework Power tools and now when I open my edmx it only opens as xml I have looked at projects that use Entity Framework 6.1 and 6.2 beta, and both have the problem.

In addition if I right click the edmx and select Run Custom Tool, I get an error Canot find custom tool 'EntityModelCodeGenerator' on this system.

I have since reinstalled Power Tools but the problem remains

I have run Visual Studio Repair

I have removed and then re-added Entity Framework

When I try to create a new edmx in a new project, and click New Item, I can not see an option to add ADO.NET Entity Data Model
