I made the mistake of downloading the latest Silverlight runtime so that I could watch a video on Channel 9. Well now Visual Studio 2010 says it cannot debug Silverlight. The message it gives me is this:
Unable to start debugging. The Silverlight Developer Runtime is not installed. Please install a matching version.
What is it talking about and where to I get this so called "matching version".
I fixed this by uninstalling Silverlight 5 in the control panel and installing the Silverlight 5 Tools.

I would like to use Snoop WPF to help in developing and troubleshooting my applications' UI. The problem is, when I check the file on Virus Total, it says that it is infected, so I am not allowed to install it at work. Has else had problems with this download? Please see the report from Virus Total:

Does anyone have any suggestions?
Removed the SnoopInstaller project and after that it passed my company's antivirus scan. So now just build and run from source.
UPDATE:
Needed to install Visual Studio 2008 and sp1 because when you install this also installs all the required C++ redistributables.
Then I actually opened the Snoop.sln file in Visual Studio 2015, changed all of the ManagedInjectorLauncher project to .NET Framework 4.5.2, and started debugging Snoop.
I am using visual studio 2012 professional version. I am trying to use Light Switch. I am getting the error : "Unable to find a version of Silverlight Developer runtime installed. Please install the silverlight developer run time."
I am trying to open the project
File -> New Project -> Templates -> Light Switch -> Light Switch Application(visual c#)
Then I am flashing with this error.
I downloaded silver light from the link http://www.microsoft.com/silverlight/
How to fix it.
I've had this issue before as well and I got around the problem by performing Windows Updates as soon as I installed VS 2012 Pro, its missing a Service Pack I'm assuming like mine was and after the update I was able to install and run Light Switch with no problem. I hope this helps you my friend. Good luck
In the following environment:
-VS2012
-Windows 7 64bit
-Microsoft Silverlight 5 SDK
I have created a few lightswitch applications in VS2012 but I am running into an error when attempting to create a new one or open an existing lightswitch project. I receive a pop-up that says "unable to find a version of silverlight developer runtime installed".
There is a link on the pop-up which starts a download but after downloading it, I still receive the same error.
I was able to fix the issue by doing the following :
I went into "Uninstall a program" and noticed that I had 4 different Silverlight related items installed.
Microsoft Silverlight
Microsoft Silverlight SDK3
Microsoft Silverlight SDK4
Microsoft Silverlight SDK5
I just uninstalled the first item, "Microsoft Silverlight" then reinstalled the appropriate (32 or 64 bit) Microsoft Silverlight SDK5 from the following link: http://www.silverlight.net/downloads .
Don't use the link that is given in VS 2012. Doesn't work.
I have a slight different solution for Visual Studio 2010. After uninstall the current Silverlight Runtime, I got it to work if I download it from Visual Studio suggested url.
The best way I have found to find the most current Silverlight 5 Developer Runtime or End-User Runtime, is to search the downloads for the latest Silverlight bits. All other suggestions seem to take you on a wild goose chase depending on what version of Visual Studio or OS you are using.
Search Microsoft Downloads
Just look for the latest "Security Update for Microsoft Silverlight" entry.
The Silverlight Security Update KB2890788 is what fixed it for me, after trying uninstall and re-install without success.
I'm trying to run a sivlerlight website in Windows 7 64-bit. I have VS 2008 SP1 and downloaded silverlight 3 SDK. It installed succesfully and everything, but I'm getting this error when I try to compile:
"unable to start debugging the silverlight managed debugging package isn't installed"
Any help?
Thanks!
You need more than the SDK to debug silverlight, the Silverlight Tools for Silverlight 3 which also includes the version of the runtime that is debuggable.
You may also need to install the Silverlight 4 developer runtime, since its quite likely you will run into a site the requires silverlight 4 but installing the standard 4 runtime will put you at square one.
This is the link to the silverlight 4 dev runtime:-

I am trying to get started doing some Silverlight development. I am interested in learning about the out-of-browser support. I can create and run Silverlight 3 applications just fine. I have confirmed that I have Silverlight 3 instead of Silverlight 3 Beta. I have been able to confirm this because my API list includes Application.InstallStateChanged instead of Application.ExecutionStateChanged.
However, I do not have the option to enable my application to run offline in Visual Studio. I can see this option in this blog post (http://johnpapa.net/silverlight/updated-silvertwit-code-for-msdn-magazine/). Unfortunately, I do not have the option shown or the Reduce XAP size option. I have downloaded the Visual Studio tools from here (http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?familyid=9442b0f2-7465-417a-88f3-5e7b5409e9dd&displaylang=en).
What am I doing wrong?
Thank you!
It looks like John Papa is using a new version of visual studio possibly the VS2010 beta.
Try this tutorial instead

Corrupted Install
It looks like a corrupted install. Try uninstalling and then see Allen Chen's advice here:
http://silverlight.net/forums/t/83226.aspx including:
Silverlight3_Tools.exe /x:c:\temp /u to manually extract the SL 3 files and c:\temp\SPInstaller.exe to verify the tools install.
Use Blend
Also, If you have Blend 3 installed (preview here) you can enable Out of the Browser inside of Blend. See Project->Silverlight Project Options.
One thing might be that your Silverlight developer runtime got corrupted/overwritten. Try installing it once and see if it solves...
