Unable to install MVC 3

I am attempting to install asp.net MVC 3 to use with Visual Web Developer 2010 Express. I try to install from AspNetMVC3ToolsUpdateSetup.exe. The install log shows this:

MSI (s) (08:E4) [00:22:35:745]: Product: Microsoft ASP.NET MVC 3 -- A later version of Microsoft ASP.NET MVC 3 is already installed. Setup will now exit.

A later version of Microsoft ASP.NET MVC 3 is already installed. Setup will now exit.

I have MVC 2 installed (it came with VWD 2010). I do not see MVC3 or MVC4 in installed programs list. I don't have NuGet installed. How could I manage to install it?

I apparently had a corrupted installation. I was unable to see MVC3 installed in control panel and I was unable to see it in visual studio, but the installer detected it anyway.

I managed to install it by unzipping the installer exe and then running aspnetmvc3vwd2010tools.msi from within it directly. I found that it was the correct msi by accident. Running setup from with in it failed consistently.
