Hi,

I am using Visual Studio 2012 Ultimate Edition on Windows 8 Enterprise. Everything has been working smoothly, and all of a sudden I am facing a strange problem

None of my projects through Visual studio seem to build anymore. When I select Build solution, the build process starts but just locks up and stays in the "Build in progress" stage. Even if I create a new Visual Studio project (Metro App), Visual studio gets stuck on "Creating Project 'App1'" screen, and the output window just shows "Build started..."

I also have Visual Studio 2010 installed, but that works just fine and I am able to build my project.

I tried invoking the C# compiler in the command line, but that just locks up as well and doesn't show the help screen when invoked:

C:\Windows\Microsoft.NET\Framework\v4.0.30319\csc.exe

(just hangs)

Also, if it helps, I am logging into my company domain and my user has full admin rights.

I am completely stuck on this, and any help would be appreciated.

Thanks

Kunal

How can I locate and change the $(VCTargetsPath) variable?

≪ Previous: Visual studio 2012 build process is stuck

I am learning everything about visual studioo now, including the project file structure, msbuild settings, etc.

And I am now getting into trouble.

There are macros(variables) in vs project files, such as $(Configuration), $(Platform), $(TargetName), $(UserRootDir).

So my question are:

1. In VS 2019, I can't find an official document describle $(VCTargetsPath). Via google, I found some pages said that this value are defined in regestry, whrer I still can't fine the key. So, where exactly is this variable defined in VS2019? And how to change its value?

My visual studio works well, I am only wondering how it works.

2.Is there somewhere defines all these macros/variables as a center, or they are defined respectively?

Thank you so much for you help!

MSB3283: The wrapper assembly for type library "MSHTML" was not found

I've made the Windows 10 Anniversary Update today and run into the issue that my Visual Studio 2015 (Update 3) cant find the "MSHTML".

Did anyone run into the same issue and has a fix for that?

In Detail:

I've got this warning:

C:\Program Files (x86)\MSBuild\14.0\bin\Microsoft.Common.CurrentVersion.targets(2399,5): warning MSB3283:Thewrapper assemblyfortype library"MSHTML" was not found.

But before the update Visual Studio was still able to build..

Any Ideas?
