Strange problem installing a setup that I have just created - c#

I have both VS 2005 and 2008 installed.
Just today I created a setup project in 2005 and I got this error when I tried to installed it.
"The folder path 'http://sharingcentre.info' contains an invalid character."
So I decided to create a simple project and added a new setup in 2005 and got the same problem.
I then converted the project to 2008 and added another new setup. The same problem happened again.
However, a previous setup project I created before work ok. I can install my application. Its only from today I cannot install any of my new setup projects. Using either 2005 and 2008.
Has anyone else had this same problem.
Searching google doesn't give me any real responses, I give the error message is too vague.
many thanks for any suggestions,

I removed the link that was in the setup property. That solved the problem.

Visual Studio 2017 Issues

So, I feel like I don't have all of the Visual Studio components that I need on my personal computer. For example, when I create a new ASP.NET application on the school computer, it generates files with it (program.cs, startup.cs, and appsettings.json), but those don't exist when I try to create a project on my laptop.
I just had a huge issue trying to get Scaffold-DbContext to work (and after about an hour of digging, finally found the commands to run in Package Manager Console that would allow that much to work). I'm sure there are other things I'm completely missing and don't realize it yet.
What do I need to do to get these files to be generated when I create a new project? Are there other things that I haven't installed for Visual Studio yet that I probably should? I'm really at a complete loss here.
Bring up Visual Studio. Click on Tools. Click Get Tools and Features...
Compare whats installed with what you have at school.
These three will do most of what your looking for:
.Net desktop development
ASP.NET and web development
Data storage and processing
Also look at the versions Help About Microsoft Visual Studio

Creating new project (.net Core Web) Visual Studio 2017 Error: Unterminated string. Path TemplateInfo[40].Tags.auth

Since yesterday I am getting a weird error when I try to create a new .Net Core Web project. The error I am getting:
It seems this is only the case for .Net Core projects (Console application .Net core also doesn't work but a regular .Net web project does work...
I looked online but it seems there is no documentation about this error whatsoever.
Some things I tried already:
Repairing Visual Studio 2017
Checked the log by running Devenv /log (Warning :
Performance warning: String load failed. Pkg:{D15F5C78-D04F-45FD-AEA2-D7982D8FA429} (VisualBasicProjectSystemPackage) LANG:0409 ID:2
)
UPDATE
I think I know what caused the problem. Prior to the problem I deleted my old user account (migrated the account so everything copied to a new user account), my guess is that Visual Studio also installs templates on my user account and with the removal of my old user account I also deleted some templates. The question however is, why is the .Net Core template the only one not working then?
Anyone know what causes this problem and how to fix it?
Removing Visual Studio and reinstalling it seems to fix the issue. Before reinstalling, make screenshots of all your settings and (manually) downloaded components.
Same problem here, I tried to repair (multiple times) the installation but the problem wasn't solved.
In my case I didn't change user accounts.. I just uninstalled VS 2013 Ultimate, Unistalled VS 2015 (with some difficulty) and then installed VS2017..

The operation could not completed

I have created new MVC web application in visual studio with Individual account. Every functionality is working fine including Identity and sql localDB.
But when I add entity framework into my project. It giving me error in dialog box. "The operation could not completed". In output window i saw
TF10121: The path '\\D:\c#\2016\testdelete\testdelete\Data\Model1.edmx.diagram' is not found or not supported. Type or select a different path.
I googled it but everybody giving different solution and those are not working.
I re-install my visual studio, but same error.
Do I need to change any path to solve this issue ?
I have created new solution from scratch, and there is only one project.
Tried with below solutions,
VS2010 The operation could not be completed
Installed mentioned package. (ASPNET WEB FRAMEWORK TOOL)
Visual studio was suggested me to install "AspNet5.ENU.RC1_Update1_KB3137909", and I installed this too.
I am using latest EF.
I tried to remove project and created new project as mentioned here,

Visual Studio 2013 Ultimate project load failed

For some reason when I try to open a solution the project says "load failed." When I try reload the project I get the following error:
Creation of the virtual directory //localhost:xxxx/ failed with the error: Unable to access the IIS metabase. You do not have sufficient privilege to access IIS web sites on your machine.
I've run into this error on at least three different occasions and each time I fixed the problem by reinstalling Visual Studio and .NET Framework 4.5.1. However, reinstalling is not working this time. Here are the things I've already tried:
Reinstalled Visual Studio and .NET Framework 4.5.1
Ran Visual Studio as Administrator
Turn IIS features off and on
Unfortunately, none of these things have worked and I really need to resolve this problem
Any suggestions are welcome!
Thank you.
Right click on the project and select 'Reload Project'
Try this trick, Maybe it will work for you.
Go to My document Folder. It's like C:/Users/Username/My Documents
Here is a folder called IISExpress Delete this folder after uninstall IIS express. When it's goes deleted then install the IIS express again and it will surely work.
I had that problem after installing Visual Studio 2013 update 4. I occurs that I have to uninstall IIS express for sure, but also it was needed to change in csproj file one of the line:
<UseIISExpress>true</UseIISExpress>
into
<UseIISExpress>false</UseIISExpress>
and that helped a lot in my case.
After this I've just installed IIS express once again.
I have the same problem. Try to run Visual Studio like administrator. This fix problem in my case.
In my case, I have to reopen the project as an administrator and then configure it to use IISExpress instead of IIS. Then close and reopen as normal user.
I also have to reset my VS environment.
Hope this help.
Go to Tools->extensions and updates in VS
and check installed plugins and uninstall all
That works
thanks for the suggestions everyone.
It turns out this problem was easily solved; all I had to do was go back to work. The computer I'm working on is a work computer, and the IISExpress folder (usually located in C:/Users/Username/My Documents) was stored on a network drive. All I had to do was connect to the network drive and everything now works.

Problem using Firebird with VS2008 (C#)

Good morning, i'm trying to import the DLL of the Firebird.Client to use with the VS2008 but everytime i add the reference to the dll i get the message:
Warning 1 The referenced component 'FirebirdSql.Data.FirebirdClient' could not be found.
I've tryied to add the reference path to the project, but it doesn't solve the problem.
Is there anything else i can do?
Thanks in advance
Link to where i've download cliente:
http://sourceforge.net/projects/firebird/files/firebird-net-provider/2.6.5/NETProvider-2.6.5.zip/download
I ran into this same problem when I received a new Windows 7 workstation -- it seems to affect Visual Studio 2008 on Windows 7. Everything worked fine in VS2008 on my old Windows XP machine. Unfortunately the ultimate solution for me was to migrate everything to Visual Studio 2010.
Found the problem, to use Firebird with VS2008 i had to use a older version of the Firebird client, that worked just fine. Awsome? Not that much, but if you have no choice like me you can try it too, just use:
Version 2.5.2 for .NET 3.5/2.0 with Entity Framework support
