Unable to Install Nuget Manager extension on Visual Studio 2010 Phone Express

Question

I am using Visual Studio 2010 for Phone Express to develop Windows Phone 7 apps. Unfortunately, it does not come installed with Nuget Manager. So based on the content at this site, I downloaded the VSIX installer for Visual Studio 2010 for Phone Express from this link

Unfortunately, the installer fails with error

Install Error

I am posting the relevant section of the install Log.

As can be seen from logs, it does discover the Visual Studio Phone Developer 2010 Express, but still aborts the installation of the extension.

Can anyone please help me out with the installation of Nuget Manager on Visual Studio 2010 Express for Phone

Make sure you have the latest Update for Visual Studio 2010 Express for Phone! But I think that the express editions do not support extensions so VsVim cannot be installed.

Though they recently enabled extensions/plugins for VS Express. But I think that is just available for Version 13
