I'm Trying to get the Tao Framework going in my system. I have Windows 7 64bit With Visual Studio 2010.
I have downloaded the file "taoframework-2.1.0-setup.exe" and installed it, leaving everything as it was.
As far as I understand now i should be able to add either a "Tool" in the toolbox that will be called simpleOpen GL or to add a "Reference" in a specific project.
The problem is that nothing related to Tao Framework is showing in my visual studio.
I've been reading around and haven't found any solid answers, a tutorial would be nice, any info will help!
Thanks!
What about OpenTK? Apparently Tao has been superseded by OpenTK. The last release of Tao was in 2008.

You have to search for it. Right click in the toolbox and click "choose items". in VS2010 the option will not appear on the dialog box so you click browse and go to installation folder(C:\Program Files\TaoFramework\bin) of Tao framework and look for Tao.Platform.Windows.dll.
Then click ok and will see the simpleOpenGLControl and the click ok. It will be loaded as part of the toolbox

When I create WinForms project or Control Library project for .NET 6.0, the designer toolbox is empty with information "There are no usable controls in this group".
Reseting toolbox does not fix the problem.
Repairing VS installation from VS Installer level does not fix the problem.
Visual Studio Cummunity 2022 v 17.3.1
Has anyone encountered such a problem?
I found a solution for this:
Close Visual Studio
Go to this folder on your computer:
%USERPROFILE%\Local Settings\Application Data\Microsoft\VisualStudio\
Open the sub-folder for your version of Visual Studio, something like 17.0_65d436a7
Delete these 4 files:
toolbox.tbd
toolbox_reset.tbd
toolboxIndex.tbd
toolboxIndex_reset.tbd
After you open Visual Studio the toolbox items should be there.
A similar issue occurred on my machine, with an empty Toolbox and all the latest updates. I hadn't noticed the Reset Toolbox option, but I landed here after searching and the comments above helped resolve my issue. For future reference, here's a quick visual guide of things to try if the Toolbox is empty.

Resetting...
Try right click on Toolbox empty space and click "Show All".
I have Visual Studio 2008 on my Vista 64 machine, along with .Net 3.5
I have been learning about zip files and the doco keeps referring me to this library which isits states has been available since .Net 3.0.
Why is this library missing? I bout the professional version of VS 2008 (in 2008) and am at a loss to understand why it is missing.
Thanks for any help.
You must add a reference to WindowsBase.dll in order to use System.IO.Packaging:
Right-click your project in the Solution Explorer and press Add Reference....
Go to the .NET tab and scroll down to WindowsBase.
Select it and press OK.
When I create a Xamarin.Forms application using Visual Studio Community 2015 Community on Windows 8.1 it shows me this error on load:
A problem was encountered creating the sub project 'App1.WinPhone'. This project requires a Visual Studio update to load. Right-click on the project and choose 'Download Update'
I've installed all updates available and trying on a newly installed Windows.
Note: I had this error in Forms.
How can I fix this error?
Note: There isn't a Download Update option in Solution Explorer.
Navigate to where you saved the project files that you created in Visual Studio. Default location is C:\Users\PSDan\Documents\Visual Studio 2015\Projects.
Open the project folder that you are experiencing problems with and navigate to C:\Users\PSDan\Documents\Visual Studio 2015\Projects\test\test\test.Windows folder. Inside this folder is a file called test.Windows.csproj.
Right click on that file and open with... using Visual Studio, by doing this it should detect the missing package and in my case automatically prompted to install the missing package.
I've been seeing similar errors for .Window or .WindowPhone and what I've observed is that it is due to missing SDK. Same might be the case with you.
Do you see App1.Droid appearing in the solution? (I guess NO)
Go to file explorer and locate App1.Droid.csproj (..\App1\App1.Droid\App1.Droid.csproj) and open this in a new instance. There it will pop up "Install Missing Feature" dialog and you can follow the steps to install missing components.
If your issue is the same as here:
Project required a Visual Studio update
then you may try and see if this solution works:
[Cause is] a mismatch of the target framework version and profile in the .csproj file. Despite the target framework being correct in the project Properties, they were not being correctly saved for whatever reason. Thus, when trying to install a utility library from nuGet, it left my project in the state you described.
The solution was to go by this site:
Framework Profiles in .NET
and find the correct combination, then manually edit the .csproj file to adjust <TargetFrameworkProfile> and <TargetFrameworkVersion>.
Installing Visual Studio Update 3 with selected features "Windows 8.1 and Windows Phone 8.0/8.1" and "Cross Platform Mobile Development" solved the problem for me.
Uninstall Xamarin completely, and reinstall it. That happened to me as well. I would uninstall Visual studio too. Install that first, then install Xamarin.
Edit: I know this sucks to do, but it was what the Xamarin team had me do to resolve it. As far as I know this is the official fix as of last week.
I'm struggling with something very fundamental - so I'm probably being dumb.
I'm following the MSDN Tutorials for learning Visual C# and one of the very first things you do (following changing the theme color, of course) is create a new project. The project template(s) listed, specifically "WPF Application", are not existing, however.
Here's what the tutorial says I should see:
The same process is used by this tutorial.
What I see lacks "WPF Application"
Uhh.... what? When I use the search box for "WPF", I find "WPF App for MVVMbasics Core project" which I have to download from online, but get this error message when using it:
Can anyone help?
The give away is in the title of the dialog box displayed when you try to open a WPF project (my emphasis):
Microsoft Visual Studio 2013 Express for Web
The Express products each only support a subset of the project types. Choose "Express 2013 for Windows Desktop" from the Visual Studio Express page. Alternatively, if you meet the "Who can use Visual Studio Community" requirements at the bottom of the page, you could download Visual Studio 2013 Community.
Try Changing from .Net Framework 4.5 to 4.0 or 3.5 from the comboBox above.
If that solves, then you may need to install .Net Framework 4.5 on your system.
And if not, run the Visual Studio Installer again. Will be better to remove and install again than just using 'Repair' option in the installer.
Select 'Full' option on components selection if it asks for while installing..
Reinstallation would defenitely help. But if you don't like to spend that much time.. Take a look at

I have recently installed Microsoft Visual Studio 2013 Express for Windows Desktop with Update 4.
The build number is: "12.0.31101.00 Update 4" with .NET Framework build number: "4.5.51641"
I have reboot my computer after the installation and I am using Windows 8.1 x64 with the latest updates also.
When i create a Visual C# => WPF Application project, and i try to hit "View Designer" on the item "MainWindows.xaml" or press "Shift+F7" on the code view the designer does not show up.
I have tried everything, but no designer seems to be in this edition or Visual Studio... No menu even tells the name "Designer" anywhere.
I have used 2010/2012 Express and i always used to have the designer.
Did Microsoft remove the designer from express versions now ? :O
Thanks for your help.
Ok... I just solved my issue.
The ISO i have downloaded was about 2,00 GB, and I noticed it's a little too light to be VS 2013 (even Express).
The ISO I have just downloaded is about 6 GB. Works nicely now!

Click "Download" then check the ISO file.
