I recently installed Visual Studio 2010 Professional on my Windows 7 machine. When I did so, I had some problems with SQL Server Express 2008R2, so I uninstalled the version installed with VS2010 and installed it separately. However, after doing this (which took awhile - I didn't realize how hard it is to remove SQL Server completely from a machine), I fired up my solution (which opens up on other computers - all of which are running Windows XP and never had a problem with SQL Server Express) and, as the solution opens up, Visual Studio just crashes out.

I checked the event logs, but I don't understand what I can do to fix the problem. I did try to reinstall/repair Visual Studio, but that didn't seem to do anything. Any help in resolving this would be appreciated.

Here is an image of one of the warning/dialog boxes I get when loading Visual Studio (don't know if this pertains):

Here are the errors I get from my event logs after the crash (under Applications):

VSTTExecution

The description for Event ID 0 from source VSTTExecution cannot be found. Either the component that raises this event is not installed on your local computer or the installation is corrupted. You can install or repair the component on the local computer.

If the event originated on another computer, the display information had to be saved with the event.

The following information was included with the event:

(devenv.exe, PID 6404, Thread 1) TuipPackage.InitializeTestProjectPlugins: System.IO.FileNotFoundException: Could not load file or assembly 'Microsoft.VisualStudio.QualityTools.CodedUITestPackage, PublicKeyToken=b03f5f7f11d50a3a' or one of its dependencies. The system cannot find the file specified.

WRN: Assembly binding logging is turned OFF. To enable assembly bind failure logging, set the registry value [HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Fusion!EnableLog] (DWORD) to 1. Note: There is some performance penalty associated with assembly bind failure logging. To turn this feature off, remove the registry value [HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Fusion!EnableLog].

the message resource is present but the message is not found in the string/message table

  • I experienced a similar problem after I added a 10MB HTML file to my solution. Upon reload the solution it would crash like above. Feb 20, 2014 at 3:07

It looks like the solution file was corrupted. I rolled back my solution file, made the changes I had previously made, and everything has been fine since that point.
