I installed the latest version 10.1.1 of the Runtime for WPF SDK with the IDE Integration component. When I create a Visual Studio 2010 project, I don't see any of the WPF project templates. I've tried looking for them manually but haven't been able to locate them. Is there a known issue with this or a place I can download them explicitly?
sorry to hear you're having trouble, the VS2010 templates should have installed ok. I've uploaded them and attached to this post. The Zip files should be copied as outlined below then you can run the command devenv.exe /InstallVSTemplates to register the templates with Visual Studio.
#. ArcGISMapAppCSharp.zip => C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Visual Studio 10.0\Common7\IDE\ProjectTemplates\CSharp\Windows\ArcGIS\Runtime SDK 10.1.1 for WPF
#. ArcGISMapAppVBNET.zip => C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Visual Studio 10.0\Common7\IDE\ProjectTemplates\VisualBasic\Windows\ArcGIS\Runtime SDK 10.1.1 for WPF

The two template zip are attached to the previous post on this thread.
To install them to VS Express you may just need to copy them to the VS project template location (for all users):
C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Visual Studio 12.0\Common7\IDE\ProjectTemplates\CSharp\Windows\
Or alternatively if it is just for a single user then try:
C:\Users\<UserName>\Documents\Visual Studio 2013\Templates\ProjectTemplates\Visual C#
Visual Studio automatically picks up the templates from the default locations.
Alternatively, you can create your own:- create a new WPF app project in the language of your choice, add the reference to Esri.ArcGIS.Client.dll (and any other dlls), add some initial XAML/code as required then save the project as a new template.
