When I copy over an SSIS package I have been developing from my laptop to my desktop with Windows File Sharing (shared folders) across a home network, the moved package fails to load properly. I can see the Control Flow tasks but not the Data Flow tasks - they simply disappear! I have update the Connection Managers to point to the new machine, and tested them (OK).
Its the same as this issue posted here
Creating an empty package and clicking to create a new data flow cause this error:

Failed to create the task.

Seems the only way is to uninstall and reinstall Client Components.
How do I uninstall and reinstall Client Components when I try to do that, SQL Server Setup tells me "None of the selected features can be installed or upgraded. Setup cannot procees since there is no effective change being made to the machine...."
I had selected "Workstation components, Books online and Development tools". This is already installed - so how I can reinstall it if I get this message above which does not let me proceed.
