I had Visual Studio Express 2013 for Web installed on my machine running Windows 8. Windows update automatically updated my windows to Windows 8.1. After the update when I reopened VS Express 2013, I was unable to create a new project. I get the following error:
Failed to create a 'ImageSource' from the text '..\Images\Medium.png'.
I tried the following measures but to no effect:
Reinstalled VS Express 2013
Installed and Reinstalled FastPictureViewer codec
Run VS as administrator
Set Registery key HKLM\SOFTWARE\Classes.png - REG_SZ Content Type
Finally found this solution:
Go to windows update of your PC and install all the optional an recommended updates.
Restart your pc and everything should work fine.

First off, I know about the bug that happens when installing Visual Studio 2013 on Windows 8.1 using SCCM 2012. However, I believe this bug was fixed in the update 3. http://blogs.msdn.com/b/vsnetsetup/archive/2014/10/29/error-26403-failed-to-add-user-to-group.aspx
I have downloaded and installed Visual Studio Premium 2013 with update 4.
I have downloaded the latest available version of the Visual Studio 2013 Shell (Isolated). https://www.visualstudio.com/en-us/downloads/download-visual-studio-vs.aspx. And when installing with SCCM 2012, I am still getting the error message that was present in pre-update 3 versions of visual studio.
Error 26403.Failed to add user to group. (-2147463168 SYSTEM Performance Log Users )
Does anyone have a workaround for installing Vs Shell (Isolated) onto a windows 8.1 machine with sccm 2012 ?

I'm trying to connect my access database using Visual Studio 2013 running on Windows 8.
I found some fixes but they don't work for me.
First, I tried installing Microsoft Access Database Engine 2010 Redistributable (AccessDatabaseEngine_x64) and installed it successfully but it is giving me the same error.
Another fix that I found was installing 2007 Office System Driver: Data Connectivity Components but running the file gives me the error "The installation of this package failed."
Im running Office Professional Plus 2013 64-bit, Windows 8 Pro 64-bit, and Visual Studio Professional 2013
Hit the same thing. Try installing the Office2007 redist as well - https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/23734 . Solved my prob.
go to your project properties > compile > and uncheck the Prefer-32bit
I have a Windows 7 Express, with Visual Studio 2012. When I run it I get this message:
"C:\windows\system32\MSVCR110.dll is either not designed to run on Windows or it contains an error. Try reinstalling the program again using the original installation media or contact your system administrator or the software vendor for support".
I tried these things:
Repairing Visual Studio with installation.
Uninstalling and installing again.
Installing .Net framework manually.
Installing Microsoft Visual C++ 2012 Redistributable
Getting the .dll from a computer with a working Visual Studio 2012.
Using a different installation of Visual Studio.
Nothing worked and I have no idea what's the problem.
The two installations that I've used worked on different computers with the same operating system.
Please I need ideas!!
Do you have Windows 7 Service Pack 1 installed? If Not do that first.
Even after that you have two options:
Remove & Reinstall by downloading a new copy of Visual C++ Redistributable for Visual Studio 2012 Update 4
Check System requirements section carefully it requires Windows 7 Service Pack 1 installed to work.
Reinstall Visual Studio 2012 with Update 4
