Most probably you are dealing with a connection problem. You may try to repair your VS installation at a later point of time.
You may consider downloading a local installation package, select the Download all, then install option in the dropdown at the bottom of the Workloads tab of the Visual Studio Installer. The purpose of this feature is to frontload the downloading of the Visual Studio packages onto the same computer that you plan on eventually installing Visual Studio on. By downloading the packages locally first, you can then safely disconnect from the internet before you install Visual Studio.
Also you can download the installer locally by using a command line. And only then you can launch the installer for the Visual Studio, so you will not face with such problems. Read more about that in the Create an offline installation package of Visual Studio for local installation article.
I'm trying to get Visual Studio 2013 running as an administrator, but I'm constantly getting errors. I've searched and tried solutions for other versions of VS, but those fixes didn't apply, so hopefully someone here can help.
When I try to run VS2013 as an admin, I an error saying that the application cannot start.
I saw a few articles talking about copying and registering dte*.olb files, but they were for previous versions of VS. I copied one of the files over and registered it and I can now get past the original error, but I can't compile any application - including any default template workspaces. Before I went too crazy and potentially made things worse, I wanted to ask here.
If I don't get the "application cannot start" message, I get this message when I try to compile anything:
---------------------------
Microsoft Visual Studio
---------------------------
Error loading type library/DLL. (Exception from HRESULT: 0x80029C4A (TYPE_E_CANTLOADLIBRARY))
---------------------------
OK
---------------------------
The problem is that that error code doesn't tell me what library wont load.
The output window says:
Error occurred while restoring NuGet packages: Error loading type library/DLL. (Exception from HRESULT: 0x80029C4A (TYPE_E_CANTLOADLIBRARY))
1>------ Build started: Project: WcfService1, Configuration: Debug Any CPU ------

========== Build: 1 succeeded, 0 failed, 0 up-to-date, 0 skipped ==========
I tried uninstalling and reinstalling NuGet with no change in the behavior.
And if I go to the project properties, I can't see the Web, Package/Publish Web, or Code Analysis Tabs.
Does anyone have any idea how to fix this?
This is on Windows 8.1 Pro. My exact VS configuration is below.

And I'll go with the saddest answer of all time: Have you tried a full uninstall, reboot and re-install of Visual Studio?
This will also help if the issue is as a result of an add-in or similar.
I had a lot of issues with a clean install of VS2013 on win7 (projects not loading, crashes etc). A re-install sadly was the only thing that helped. This is poor advice I know but still sometimes one of the best fixes to some VS ills.
[EDIT]
I am no fan of fixing up failed installs unless it breaks the same every time.
Refer Connect Article (For VS2012 but same issue).
This Stack Overflow question may help with the crashes. The question is for VS2008 but it looks identical. Try and reset your fonts as suggested. (I think running Devenv /ResetSettings at a minimum is not a bad idea)
I do recommend to disable Resharper. From time to time I meet a VS solution which I can't open in VS2013 with enabled ReSharper.
Tools->Options->Resharper->Suspend Now
It will be difficult to help without some information such as
- Event log for the error
- Further details of the error message ("Application cannot start" is a bit vague)
Have you rebooted since installing ?
Have you updated via windows update yet ?
Did you install it to its usual path or somewhere else ?
Did you install it as admin or under a user account ?
If its work pc is it installed locally or under a roaming profile ?
No problems on my surface pro or desktop running it as admin or standard user
but it is installed locally and was installed under my developer account but works under all accounts (test ,dev,admin, user etc)
Based on the information provided, I believe there is an issue with Microsoft Office Developer Tools specifically Outlook related.
Fix 1:
Checking your Office directory for msoutl.olb. If it is there, try running 'regtlib msoutl.olb'. You should have regtlib on your machine is part of your Visual Studio install, I believe. Anyway, reregistering the typelib will rewrite all of the necessary keys to the registry. You will need administrative privileges for this operation.
Fix 2:
Try running a program that came with Outlook - C:\Program Files\Common Files\System\MSMAPI\1033\Scanpst.exe
For more information please see this site - Click Here
Fix 3:
Try uninstalling Office Developer Tools and see if the problem persists.
Fix 4:
The other possibility is that msoutl.olb itself is corrupt, in which case reinstalling Outlook should fix the problem.
This could be windows 8 acting up. Saying that, insure that your OS is updated, new patches to fix broken stuff should be regular, i suspect a lot of broken things.
Insure that you have the correct .net framework installed and re-install it if necessary. I am not too familiar with Windows 8, i had 3 months of an unpleasant experience with it, but try to see if you can change the compatibility mode by right clicking on the .exe file.
i doubt my response would be any better than others but i felt like contributing and since no one mentioned either checking the .net framework or the compatability..
best of luck!
also i did a small bit of research into TYPE_E_cantloadlibrary and found this link, maybe you should check it out

Try this:
right click devenv.exe
troubleshoot compatibility

This program requires addition permission
Next
Test the program

Yes, save these settings for this program.
This will make VS run as administrator from now on.
I ran into the exact same problem. My issue was that the 'Start Page' was fowled up.
I've edited the following:
> Tools > Options > Startup
Choose 'Show empty environment' in the 'At startup' pulldown
This fixed all my problems and can run as Administrator again.
I currently have office 2010 installed, and am trying to assist a coworker who's still using 2007 with VSTO solution. This is turning into a mess since my copy of visual studio thrashes the project files updating them to point to the O2010 dlls. If I were to install office 2007 beside 2010 would I be able to open the solution without the upgrade wizard mangling everything, or are my only options making significant architectural changes to the solution or reverting to O2007 until my employer makes O2010 the new standard.
You cannot run Outlook versions side-by-side (and here).
You can still target both 2007 and 2010, but you need to research embedded interop types.
You shouldn't need to install Office 2007 to create Office 2007 add-ins. I think the problem here is that you're missing the proper VSTO components.
Make sure you've installed the following:
All .NET and developer tools from Office (from the Office 2010 installer -- no need for the Office 2007 installer)
Microsoft Office Developer Tools from Visual Studio (from the VS installer)
Microsoft Office 2007 Primary Interop Assemblies
Microsoft Visual Studio 2010 Tools for Office Runtime
Microsoft Visual Studio Tools for the Microsoft Office system (version 3.0 Runtime)
If any of these are already installed then I recommend repairing their installations.
Try disabling this option:
Options > Office Tools > Project Upgrade > Always upgrade to installed version of Office (more info here)
I don't think this solves the root problem which is that you shouldn't even be prompted to upgrade your project. I still suspect that there is something wrong with the installation of your VSTO-related components (see my other answer for that info). However this may be an easy workaround.
To be clear, you can develop Office 2007 add-ins without having Office 2007 installed. I'm doing so right now without having to follow this workaround.
I am trying to create a webproject which can be deployed on azure. I have VS 2010 trial version (pro) installed on windows 7. When i click cloud (under VC#) i am prompted to install Windows azure tools. I do this. I get the tools installed message. I restart VS 2010. But i fail to find windows azure web project template, which should have been installed. It just shows me the same sequence of screens (install tools etc). I am executing VS 2010 under administrator role.
Steps described # http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/windowsazure/ff687127.aspx
Questions
Is Windows azure template projects not allowed in Trial edition of VS 2010 pro?
Can such a project be made using VS 2010 express?
Thank you
Sameer
I'm not sure about trial versions, as I've never tried installing with a trial edition. However: I've run other software packages with trial versions of Visual Studio, without issue.
The SDK will work with Visual Studio 2010 Pro and above, as well as Visual Web Developer 2010 Express (downloadable here).
For installing the tools properly, I'd suggest going here and installing via Web Platform Installer. It will make sure you have all needed dependencies.
Here is the scenario: My dev environment is a Windows 2003 virtual server, MOSS2007, VS 2008, SQL2005, .net Framework 3.5, Ajax 2.0.
We're in the process of upgrading user workstations to Win 7. So I decided to install VS 2010 alongside VS2008.
When I tried to open an existing VS2008 project that has custom web parts for the MOSS, it went through the upgrade wizard but at the end it failed but I did not note what the error was. Instead, I decided to recreate the project but when adding a new sharepoint webpart to my solution I received an error stating that SharePoint must be forst installed on the server. Well lah-di-dah, it is installed!!! So now what?
Ended up uninstalling VS2010, but that is not the point. Does VS2010 requires SharePoint 2010 to work, really? Can anyone elaborate on this. Thanks.
Eric
You tried to open up a Sharepoint solution on your new Windows 7 workstation? I doubt you've got Sharepoint installed on that workstation, so the error message might be correct when it's saying Sharepoint isn't installed.
But, you can use VS2010 to do some Sharepoint 2007 development, as written here: http://social.msdn.microsoft.com/Forums/en/sharepointdevelopment/thread/bbced82a-a0e2-4a50-836a-3deb96c02de8
You still might want to have WSPBuilder installed though, even though VS2010 works pretty slick out of the box.
I've reinstalled both versions of VS and that soleved the problem. (not the most efficient method, however).
