I asked a question earlier that was closed because it was too vague: Composite C1 pages cannot be saved
I have more info about the problem now:
I am having problems saving pages in Composite C1. It worked fine for a long while. Now when I click save and publish on a page on which I've made changes often it will pop up with a message saying "Save Resource? - 'pagename' has been modified. Save changes?" I click yes but the save and publish button keeps being active. It doesn't save my changes.
I cannot reproduce the error locally running i Visual Studio, but when I log in to the admin panel on my hosted site I experience the problem a lot. The log in C1 doesn't show any errors and there's no fields in the page that are giving validation errors.
Can I change a setting in the web.config or somewhere else in order to turn on more extensive loggint or in order to turn up a timeout when saving?
For anyone else coming across this issue, here's a blog post (Aug 31) from the authors (with a patch!):
Composite Saving Issue - Patch
This might be related to .net 4.5. I recently installed 4.5 and I had multiple websites stop saving. If you have recently installed .net 4.5 you might try uninstalling it, or hope they release a fix for it soon.
edit: I can confirm that .net 4.5 was my issue, after uninstalling it, all my Composite C1 sites are saving again!

I have a major problem with a Winforms application with a large number of projects. VS 2019 threw an exception and closed a few days ago, and on reopening restored two files since then I have been unable to:
Add a new form to the vast majority of projects, whether the most basic MS template or not
Open the designer for any form that is already in the vast majority of projects
Access the navigation bars (the three combo boxes at the top of the VS work area that normally contain the project, namespace and content information) on any class referencing to WinForms in the vast majority of projects
When trying to do either of the first two things an 'Opening File' message is shown endlessly. If you try to do anything, a notification is shown that Visual Studio is busy, and that Microsoft will be notified but nothing else happens and you can only get out by using the Task Manager to kill all VS tasks.
In the case of the third one, a message is shown saying 'Refreshing Navigation Bars' but again it goes on forever. However, in this case you can click the Cancel button to cancel the loading attempt.
The navigation bars issue I believe is Resharper related. In addition CodeLens is not working at all, so the space for the number of references is generated but there is no content. This is true for ALL files in the solution, not just the form related ones.
Here is what I have tried so far:
Cleaned and Rebuilt the solution - works fine but no difference
Built and deployed the solution - works fine
Deleted the SUO file and reset
Cleared the Resharper caches
Disabled Resharper
Performed a repair install of Visual Studio
Created a new Solution and added forms etc. which was unaffected and worked fine
Opened a different solution which was also working fine
Tried the same processes with a Project in the same solution that is not part of the application (TestBed) and that works fine too, but is the only project that does
Can anyone suggest where to look now? Since new and existing solutions work OK except for this one I am assuming that it is something Solution related rather than something related to VS itself, but I have no idea what that might be. For example, what is it trying to do when it says 'Opening File' (apart from the obvious - opening a file :-)) and what could cause that to fail? Am I looking for something in the Solution file, or could it be something else?
All suggestions and assistance towards resolving this issue would be gratefully received.
Thanks to Jasimov for the only response, I appreciate your attempt to help.
I have now resolved the issue using the following steps:
Uninstall Visual Studio 2019 Community Edition
Perform a fresh install of Visual Studio 2019 Professional
Reload the main solution
Clean the solution
Rebuild the solution
Deal with some issues that were highlighted in the Output and Errors, none of which were directly forms related
Rebuild the solution
Run the application and ensure it runs as expected
Go back and select forms at random and try opening them. All now work as expected.
In addition CodeLens is now working not only properly but actually better than before giving more information more quickly. On the other hand, I have not yet reinstalled Resharper which will be the next step.
I have included all the steps I took just in case anyone else has a similar problem. I have not been able to find this exact issue anywhere else in my searches so I hope it helps someone.
UPDATE: I have since re-installed Resharper with no problems and the designers are all working fine so now back into full flow!
I had a similar issue with the web forms designer in VS2019 hanging as soon as I clicked on anything on the design surface. The same projects were OK in VS2017. Uninstalled VS2019, rebooted, reinstalled VS2019, found that the designer was now working OK. Progressively added back 3rd party toolbox components, one VSIX, and the .Net 4.8 targeting pack. Still working. Thanks for your hint about the reinstall.
I'm trying to convert a WPF oneclick installed application and so everything should be pretty straight forward. However, whenever I run the debug project, I get
'The parameter is incorrect'
in a message box popup and I can never run the app.
This happens for my app while trying to debug, all the samples from github, and even the DAC application from the Windows Store. The error pops up even once the app is installed and showing in my application list.
I'm on the latest build of the Creators Update.
There are various errors in the event viewers, but they seem to be a common occurence for WinRT apps.
Any ideas at all?
If you have the WPF project in VS2017, I'd recommend to package directly from VS without using the DAC. see the article for more information https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/uwp/porting/desktop-to-uwp-packaging-dot-net
The problem appears to be related to the May Security Update. I restored Windows to the factory defaults and everything works fine.
However, once I install the the May Security Update to address this bug with Sql Server and Filestreams, the Desktop Bridge Debugging project stops working.
I'm going to throw out a random guess that it's related to the Microsoft Malicious Software Removal Tool, as the event viewer logs mentioned an issue with the 'parameter is incorrect' referring to the Microsoft.MRT.
Of course it could be anything, and as only 7500 people have even downloaded the Desktop Bridge Debugging project in the first place, I doubt it's high on the list of Microsoft Developer Priorities.
And to be completely honest, it's really probably my fault for not rewriting the app as a UWP app, after rewriting it as a Windows Forms app, and as a Silverlight app, and as a WPF app and on and on and on. Although, I'm not sure how many glasses of Kool Aid are left in the punch bowl for me.
I got a commercial app that is working fine on most machines OOB.
I got just 1 user who gets following error when he launches OOB version (note that in his browsers it works fine).
Sorry for russian language, but his machine is in Russian.
Generally it says that there is an error and that silverlight is not installed.
I did install latest (5) Silverlight version and it didn't fix the problem.
What could this be?
This is a complete stab-in-the-dark, it might not work for you at all.
On a previous project we had an issue with a Silverlight application not working for a few users. We found a post on the Silverlight forums which mentioned that the problem was ultimately due to a corrupt user profile. However, as Microsoft have now closed the Silverlight forums, I can no longer find this article.
It turns out that the fix was to open a Command Prompt and run the following:
reg export "HKCU\Control Panel\International" international.reg
reg import international.reg
Obviously, as this involves modifying the registry, suitable care should be taken.
I've been ruining Christmas with this problem. We have this website which was BUILT using Silverlight 4 and clients have asked us to upgrade it to Silverlight 5. I had first encountered a problem during deployment in azure due to RIA related DLLs not being published to web folder because CopyLocal values were set to false causing azure deployment to be aborted. So we had solve this by simply setting CopyLocal values to true. But luckily we had encountered a much more rare problem finding out that all entities in our project which uses DBML files turns our screen to pure white whenever updating records.
After two days of hard time which included a painful christmas.. We had fix this problem(THANK YOU LORD). Thanks to these link http://forums.silverlight.net/t/234553.aspx/1
My VS2010 doesn't stop at breakpoints inside of silverlight application. It appears that no symbols for it have been loaded during debugging. When I hover over the break point it says "The braekpoint will not currently be hit, no symbols have been loaded".
I have tried all of possible solutions offered by google and have no success. The problem occurs even when I create brand new silverlight app hosted by an ASP .NET web project. All of my project configuration looks fine - silverlight debugging is enabled in the Web project.
I am using silverlight 4.
here a link to the sample project created out from the tepmlate.
Any thoughts ?
P.S I just tried to reinstall VS2010 and the problem still exists.
EDIT: I just tested the same project on another machine and it stops at the break point it seams that the problem is somewhere in the configuration of VS or silverlight.
with Matt Dotson's help I managed to attach the debugger manually. However this solution is not good enough for daily use.
Depending on my experience in Silverlight following these steps keep your project debug-gable.
Condition 1>
Firstly we need to be ensure that in Web Project's properties there is a Web section, as you see below Silverlight checkbox must be checked.
Condition 2>
Follow In Menu Debug => Attach Debugger>
Visual Studio sometimes can't attach debugging platform you need to lead the way :) . By this way you may debug other platforms,(also you may debug your product platform but pdb files must be sync and don't forget you may suspend your product platform using this).
Condition 3> Your default web browser may be Firefox,Chrome or other than IE.By Visual Studio default try to attach to IE. But when you run VS calls default browser,so you need to have a manual attachment in Condition 2 or set your default browser by right clicking on default page > Browse with .
Condition 4> There is xap file generally located in web project\ClientBin directory. Sometimes after build operations this file can't be replaced and your ProjectDll and your Project PDB files not be sync. This cause wrong line match while debugging or can't find a debugging file attached caution. I strongly suggest delete all generated files in Bus project and delete Clientbin\ProjectName.xap file. After rebuild all it must be ok!
Hope helps.
What broswer are you using? You need to be using Internet Explorer to debug silverlight projects.
I have had a similar frustrating experience with this but in my case the solution was very simple. It seems that somehow, and I really have no idea how, the debugger option for Silverlight had become unchecked in the properties on the hosting ASP.NET project.
I just assumed that as I had been previously debugging, this option was set and I didn't bother to make sure that this was this case. Just goes to show that one should always check the basics first; if I had done that it would have saved me some time.
To check this in VS2010, right-click on the project and select properties, change to the Web tab and check the Silverlight option at the bottom of the page, in the debuggers section.
Also see the debugger to a silverlight process
http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/cc838267(VS.95).aspx
If that doesn't work, then
reset iis (if you are debugging in that)
delete temporary asp.net files (%SystemRoot%\Microsoft.NET\Framework\versionNumber\Temporary ASP.NET Files)
clean and rebuild your solution
The resolution came after 2 days of headbanging. It appears that the link which Malcolm gave covers exactly my problem but my I was narrow-minded enough not to pay it enough attention because when I run the debugger as long with the app my default browser was FF. So I thought that after the FF starts I can load the page from IE or Chrome.
Actually the problem is that the debugger cannot be attached to the silverlight project because of the FF. And when I load the app from IE or Chrome the debugger dis still not attached.
Thanks to everyone that tried to help.
if you have multiple project, Rebuild the project separately that you want break point. Its work for me
Try also picking internet explorer from browser list menu as your browser
