After a fresh installation, I used the Update center to get the Mercurial, Collaboration, REST and Module Manager plugins. After the update, the only projects available were: C++ & Standard. See attached screen shot.

Workaround: clean user dir
Just to be sure I followed your steps : - fresh installation - run the IDE against existing userdir Am I missing anything ? Could you please attach the log file ? I tried fresh installation and ran the IDE against the new userdir and it works for me in NB Dev (200711040000). BTW: Octavian you are using old build. Anyway reassign to autoupdate for evaluation.
I spoke with Jirka Rechtacek and we found the key step to reproduce this bug. If you run such old build , the autoupdate will warn you about the existing updates of your installed modules, so you had to do update of these modules (not just installing above mentioned ones). This case is reproducible in Dev builds, just because we are connecting to the same update center during the whole release cycle (that is built daily from the fresh sources). Anyway this is working right now, just because Jirka implemented "check for dependent modules" last week, I can't find the appropriate issue. Jirka ?
