Question

Error 1 Cannot resolve Assembly or Windows Metadata file 'System.Configuration.dll' ,

Error 2 Type universe cannot resolve assembly: System.Configuration, Version=2.0.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=b03f5f7f11d50a3a. Application2

Answer 1

Hi Xavier,

System.Configuration is not available to Metro style apps.

Enterprise Library 5.0 is not designed for Metro style apps and would need to be updated for use in Metro style apps.

Hi Rob,

Am not using Enterprise library, but still I get this error.

My project uses .Net for Metro Style Apps and Windows reference. And a facebook reference too. That's it, any ideas what might be causing it?
