We now have a patch you can install to work around the following issue: “The XAML designer in VS and Blend will crash when opened.”
This is only intended to be used with the Windows version 10049, and Windows SDK version 10030.
- Download the following
patch to a temp folder
- Unzip the files into a TEMP folder.
- Exit Visual Studio if you have it opened.
- From an administrative command prompt, run the batch file: XAMLUpdate10049.cmd.
That should do it. If you have any issues, please post questions to the
Tools for Windows Store apps forum.
