Hi,
if I want to open my vs2008 project, I get the error "Could not load file or assembly Microsoft Build Engine, Version=3.5.0.0, Culture=neutral, .... or one of its dependencies. The system cant find the specified file."
Yesterday it has no problem and today I get this message.
I have uninstalled nothing, I have net framework 3.5 and in the meantime 4.0 too, I use win 7 x64.
I tried to repair the install of vs2008 with the dvd, no succes.
Has someone an idea, what I should do to get this to work again?
I dont want to reinstall win 7 (inkl. format the system drive).
EDIT: I checked the system with the net verify tool, and it comes out, that some dll-s in the assembly directory are missing. Now, I clean up all net framework on the system, then I will install the net framework 3.5 sp1 and lets see, whether it works or
not.
EDIT 2: I even cant install the net framework 3.5 sp1. I downloaded the full pack from microsoft and if I click on it, nothing happens. Why?
EDIT 3: after reinstalling all vs2008 components and after running the net removal tool again, I wanted to install vs2008 back. And the install says: the net framework 3.5 (x64) is installed. I know, win 7 contains it. Then how the hell can I uninstall and
reinstall the net framework 3.5??
