    I don't know what has happened but I've suddenly started to get this error when I debug in Visual Studio.

    When I use "Start debugging" I get this error:

    "Error while trying to run project: Could not load file or assembly 'WinFormApp1' or one of its dependencies. The module expected to contain an assembly manifest."

    And when I use "Start without debugging" I get this error:

    "the application failed to initialize properly (0xc000007b)."

    I really don't know what has happened. The error "0xc000007b" is shown when I use "Start without debugging" and also for application that were debugged before this error.

    I get this error for all projects. Even if I start a new project without making a single change to the code or the designer.

    Anyone knows how to fix this?

    Thanks

    Hi,

     

    If you get this error for any new project, the it means something in the settings or setup got messed up.

    I would suggest 2 things: first, try to reset your settings from Tools->import and export settings -> Reset all settings-> reset all settings, overwriting current settings.

    If after that it still does not work, I would repair/re-install VS.

     

    Hope that this helps,

    Alina
