I have a really weird issue that will make me crazy soon I think.
I've installed Visual Studio Express 2013 for Windows to test Windows Store Apps development. I want to use XAML and C#. So, I created a new project from the blank app template and just try to start it. Unfortunatelly it has never worked, the screen stay blocked on the splash screen of my app. No errors in Visual Studio, it just try to launch a Visual Studio Just in Time debbuger for an unhandled exception in .Net framework, but when I select the debugger nohthing happen. There's no trace of an exception in the EventViewer either...I tried local machine and simulator debug...no change !
Sometime i have this message in Visual Studio too but it's not all the time :
I tried everything I found on the internet :
Reset VS settings
Renew developper license
(...)
When I make a new Windows Store App with Javascript it works perfectly..it seems to be only a XAML/C# issue.
Any help would be much appreciated ! Thank you in advance !
My configuration :
Windows 8.1
Visual Studio Express 2013 for Windows Update 1
SSD drive, Intel i7, Lenovo IdeaPad
Ok I fixed it by re-installating all the system. I suppose there was something wrong with the .net Framework. Now it worked well !
EDIT :
I found that was messing the whole system. If I install SQL Server 2012 Express Edition it stop working. So...I switch to another DBMS !

I have VS 2015 RTM on Windows 10 RTM, suddenly (maybe an update) is causing today that any project 8.1 Universal can't be deployed anymore, not emulator, not device. I have confirmed it happens with any new project or existing one.
This does not happen with 8.1 Silverlight projects! which is even more strange. I have reinstalled VS 2015 and the latest cumulative Windows Update for IE and the problem persists.
EDIT: It also happens when trying to create app packages for the project but this time crashes VS!
Have any one came into this lately? Any ideas?
UPDATE: I get - An unhandled exception of type 'System.Reflection.ReflectionTypeLoadException' occurred in WindowsBase.dll
when debugging the crash when creating packages, but can't find more information
I've found that VS2015 hides some errors (not sure why or how). When it happens, try open VS2013 (if that is an option for you) and build there. It'll correctly tell you what the error is, and once you fix it you can return to 2015.
Got it! I uninstalled the Apache Cordova tools and the problem is gone magically, don't know what conflict may these tools cause with the 8.1 SDK but sure has to be investigated.
I have an web application that was developed in Visual Studio 13 using Visual Basic. When I switched it over to a virtual server to run, it was ran fine until I installed IBM System i Access. It was needed to connect to a db2 database. After its installation, removing it causes the application to stop working. It tries to load, but never does. After uninstalling it, the program worked fine, but I need it for the application. Do you have any idea of what may fix it?
Things to note:
MySQL is installed on the same virtual server as well, but uninstalling MySQL components didn't cause it to work.
Its ran using .NET 4.0
I figured out that the problem was due to the .NET Framework I was running. My application uses .NET 4.0. This was an issue because the version(6.1) of IBM System i Access for Windows only works with .NET 2.0. Hopes this helps someone eventually.
I've have a strange error with Windows Phone Emulator.
Last time I used Visual Studio 2013 and everything worked fine.
Recently I try Visual Studio 2014 CTP parallel with VS2013 but now I cannot debug Windows Phone app with Emulator from VS2013.
The app deploy successful and I can run it from Emulator but when I hit F5 VS always show:
"The application could not be launched for debugging. Ensure that the target device screen is unlocked and that the application is installed."
I've removed all Visual Studio 2014 CTP and Emulator 14 but it's not effect.
Could anyone here have similar error?
Please show me what problems is?
Thanks in advance.
The only time I have seen this error was when the app is already installed on device\Emulator, I had to remove the app , then hit F5 to work.
I started working on windows-8 this morning and I am surprised that installed app not displayed in the emulator which I installed in the morning. To be clear.
1. I created the new project called Test1 using visual studio Express 2012.
2. I installed on the emulator.
3. I close the emulator completely.
4. After an hour I created Test2 using visual studio Express 2012.
But i am not able to find the Test1 project in windows-8 phone emulator.
But when i work on iPhone and android the apps will be available if i recreate the emulator.
What could be wrong?. Do I need to change any settings?
the emulator does not persist app installs to the base image. (this was true with WP7x emulators). I don't remember seeing anything that tells me it has changed.
Emulator shutdown + start == fresh new emulator. Only time it persists your app etc is when you change settings like display language etc and emulator initiates a restart.
The design Page for Windows Phone 8 Application devlopment in Visual Studio 2012 in Windows 8 doesn't load i.e. the file MainPage.xaml just shows the following error:
An Unhandled Exception Has Occured
System.TypeInitializationException .......
It won't reload either
by clicking on
Reload The Designer
download vs2012 update 2 ..
it will solve the problem..
I'm was facing this same issue last week, and fortunately in my case (i hope yours too) the problem was solved when renew my free windows 8 developer license. To do so, run power shell as administrator and execute Show-WindowsDeveloperLicenseRegistration, this will start the license renovation process. When completed, click the Reload Again button on the VS2012 designer surface, and the designer should successfully load.
