Visual studio targets the wrong location for dll files - visual-studio

i'm trying to create my first project with visual studio in c++.
When i'm trying to run the project i'm getting this message:
visual studio tries to locate these files in a directory that they don't exist in, how can i change it?
(i.e. instead of C:\Windows\SysWOW64\ntdll.dll to C:\Windows\Sys32\ntdll.dll)

Xamarin shared code project created in Visual Studio for Mac fails to load in Windows

I created a Xamarin Forms project in Visual Studio for Mac as a shared project. When I cloned my repository in Windows and tried to open it in Visual Studio 2017, I was greeted by this error:
I searched all of C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Visual Studio for the Microsoft.CodeSharing.FSharp.targets file and didn't find it anywhere there.
I have Xamarin installed:
as well as Visual F#:
Is there some other thing I need to have installed? Should I write a Choose/When item in my msbuild file?

Visual Studio 2010 Ultimate how to create executable file

I have visual studio 2010 ultimate. There is no option to make executable file.
So how can I make executable files using this version of visual studio.
Actually you've already created an .exe file by "building" your code that you tested in debugger mode. However your .exe file may require other files in order to deploy it onto another P/C. I recommend you read this information at the following link;

Other than that you can actually find a copy of your current executeable in your application folders debug folder. May take a little searching. I'm using Visual Studio 2012 RC and I don't know if the file structure is the same for Visual Studio 2010 but for the application "counter" I look in "C:\Users\John\Documents\Visual Studio 2012\Counter\Counter\obj\Debug\Counter.exe.

The specified directory to the Visual Studio extension either does not exist

I just created CordovaApp (Multi-Device Hybrid App) in VS 2013. The application was working fine. Then I tried to open app with VS 2015 Community edition in another machine (and on same machine) and I am receiving following error:
Severity Code Description Project File Line Suppression State
Error The specified directory to the Visual Studio extension
D:\PROGRAM FILES (X86)\MICROSOFT VISUAL STUDIO
14.0\COMMON7\IDE\EXTENSIONS\APACHECORDOVATOOLS\node.exe either does not exist, or does not contain a packages\vs-mda sub-directory. Please
check that the extension directory exists and set the MDAVsixDir
variable to the correct
directory. MyAppCordovaApp C:\Users\foouser\AppData\Roaming\npm\node_modules\vs-mda-targets\Microsoft.MDA.targets 105
I also installed Cordova Tools for VS update 6.
Is there any known work-around for this issue?
I am facing the same issue. Cordova project created in VS2013 is not going to run/debug at VS2015.
NodeJS module used for building the project is no longer called vs-mda (i.e. Visual Studio Multi-Device Application) but vs-tac (i.e. Visual Studio Tools for Apache Cordova).
After perform manual migration, it is working now.

Deploy vsix referenced dlls

I have a visual studio extension project which uses some external library. More over that library uses another library which must be placed in the same folder with the exe file. (in our case it is Visual Studio folder. Folder where Visual Studio was installed.) So how I can deploy my vsix file? Exists there any ability to copy some external libriries in the Visual Studio folder or not?
First idea is to copy library dll in the first of the extension. But it is not very nice...

Visual Studio 2010 and .bsc file

I'm using an open source Mozilla project in Visual C++ 2010. The project requires UNIX based build tools and therefore I cannot create a Visual Studio project for it directly. I must use the command line build files (makefile, configure script, etc) bundled with the project to build the project using cl.exe. (This is due to the fact that some .h files are generated by the make utilities.)
The problem is, without creating a Visual Studio project, how do I browse through the project source files using say the "F12 Go To Definition" feature available in Visual Studio? I know I can generate a .bsc file using the /FR compiler option. But, I also found that the Object Browser in Visual Studio 2010 doesn't seem to support a .bsc file. When I open a .bsc file directly using Visual Studio 2010, it says "Class not registered, Looking for object with CLSID: {D9B3211D-E57F-4426-AAEF-30A806ADD397}.
How do we use a .bsc file under Visual Studio 2010?
Unfortunately BSC is not supported anymore for Visual Studio 2010+
