The Application Data folder for Visual Studio could not be created

Hi! My laptop was working fine but someone recently installed Malware Bytes to my laptop and supposedly found 4 problems and "fixed" them afterwards Visual Studio Professional 2013 and Chrome stopped launching. When I realized this happened I uninstalled
Malwarebytes but it was too late. Every time I tried launching Visual Studio I would get a message that said something like: "Two or more components could not be found. Please reinstall". I did a "fix" on Visual Studio but this solved nothing
only changed the message, the new message was "The Application Data folder for Visual Studio could not be created" so I uninstalled the program and all the extras I found on my Control Panel. Downloaded Visual Studio Community 2013 I'm trying to
install it but I got the same exact message again. Why is this happening? What does it mean? Before I uninstalled Visual Studio Professional 2013 I looked for ways others solved it but nothing seemed to work. Please help. Thanks!

Hello Danny,
The Malware Bytes may have already modified some files/registry values/environment variable which is used by Visual Studio and may be the setup cannot create it for you again.
Please try the workaround here in this blog:http://tutewall.com/application-data-folder-for-visual-studio-could-not-be-created/ and remember to backup your
registry key before you do any actions to the registry table.
Best regards,
Barry

  • WPF 4.5 doesn't show the option to open the project in Blend for Visual Studio 2013

    Hi,
    In my WPF 4.5 project in Visual Studio 2013, when I right clicked the name of my project it doesn’t show the option to open in Blend for Visual Studio 2013….. and when I try to open the project with Blend for Visual Studio 2013, it doesn't show anything.....
    I don't see the project nor the UI of my WPF 4.5 project
    How I can open my project in Blend for Visual Studio 2013???
    Thanks!!!
    Regards,

    Hi Jaquense,
    open Blend. Open Project/Solution and select the .sln-file of the project you've created in visual Studio. That's it. In the Project Explorer in Blend you should see your files and you should be able to open up your XAML-files.

    Hi,
    There is not enough information about the problem. For troubleshooting, I recommend you can use Process Monitor to detect whether there's any process failed.
    You can download Process Monitor and see how to use it for troubleshooting in below links:
    http://support.microsoft.com/kb/939896
    http://blogs.technet.com/b/askperf/archive/2007/06/01/troubleshooting-with-process-monitor.aspx
    There are a lot of log entries in Process Monitor, you may filter Visual Studio process only(proces = devenv.exe). And you can upload the logs to OneDrive so that we can investigate them.
    Also, you can refer to Gfazil's post in 
    https://social.msdn.microsoft.com/Forums/vstudio/en-US/96035692-9a50-40d4-a7d3-48bda87d11ec/the-application-was-unable-to-start-correctly-0xc000007b-click-ok-to-close-the-application-when?forum=vssetup
    Please try the method he mentioned to see whether the problem can occur:
    " Replacing the dlls mentioned below from a machine that is working solves the problem:
    c:\Windows\SysWOW64\msvcp100.dll
    c:\Windows\SysWOW64\msvcp100d.dll
    c:\Windows\SysWOW64\msvcr100.dll

  • Where do I download the crredist*.msi files for Visual Studio 2005 and CR

    I've created a VS 2005 application that uses the CR viewer control.  When I run the application, the app generates an error message.  It states that I need to install the appropriate CR redistributable (crredist*.msi).  Shouldn't this file be on the CR cd's?
    If not, where do I download it?  The development pc has W7 64 bit.  The user pc's will have WinXP.  I'm using VS 2005 and CR XI R2 Developers Edition.
    Thanks,
    DW

    This info was listed in the original post.
    Anyway, I found the solution at the link below.
    The recommendation is to explicitly target 32 bit processers when building your assemblies. Go to Project Properties, Compile, Advance Settings then change the Target CPU from its default "Any CPU" to "X86." Those of you who have been building VS apps on a 64bit machine for a while are probably familiar with the need to explicitly target X86. This article, "Windows & the World of 64-Bit Computing" (http://www.ddj.com/hpc-high-performance-computing/184405994), has some helpful insights on developing .NET apps on an X64 computer.

  • How can we move the 'application data\apple computers' folder to another location

    We use roaming profiles and the Application Data folder is stored on a network drive with restricted space (500MB).  This has not been a problem in the past but since we've been rolling out iPad's & iPhones, this restriction is becoming a problem as iTunes download's ios updates and stores device backups in 'application data\apple computers' folder (and not in the media library).
    Does anyone know how we can move this 'application data\apple computers' folder to another location or force iTunes to store the downloads/updates in the media library (which can be moved)?
    Thanks very much in advance for any help.

    Move the iTunes Library elsewhere, launch iTunes with the Shift key held down, and point it there.

  • Looping login screen in Crystal Reports for Visual Studio 2008

    Hello,
    I am using Visual Studio 2008 with the Crystal Reports Basic for Visual Studio 2008. Visual Studio and the Crystal Reports Basic Runtime for Visual Studio 2008 (x64) are installed on both the development and production boxes.  I am using Crystal Reports via Visual Studio and do not have the full blown version of Crystal Reports installed on my machine.
    We have used Visual Studio to create an aspx webpage and would like to use Crystal Reports to display a graph. The report displays fine in debug mode, but displays a looping login screen when moved into production on the web server. The web server is using Windows Server 2008 (x64) with IIS 7. We have tried passing the logon parameters to the crystal report during the page init event with the auto-bind feature enabled on the crystal report viewer. A MySQL database provides the data for the report. All ODBC data sources have been configured the same on both machines. 
    Any help would be greatly appreciated!  Thanks!

    Hello,
    Use a tool called ProcessMonitor from Microsoft and watch what happens when you try to log on.
    Also can you verify you created your DSN using the 64 bit ODBC Admin and that you are using a System DSN so IIS can find it.
    And that the MySQL ODBC drive is also 64 bit?
    If you can read ODBC trace logs you could enable it also and see what error you are getting.
    Thank you

  • Unable to install Business Intelligence for Visual Studio 2012

    I have tried and tried to get the templates to show up in Visual Studio. I have tried all the suggestions that could be found from others in 2013. I am down to the "Command Report.NoOp" message when I click on "Sql Server Data Tools for Visual
    Studio 2012", under Sql Server 2012 menu.
    Can anyone help me get rid of this error message? I can't tell how many times I have uninstalled and reinstalled or repaired 2012 software. I believe I finally have the correct SSDTSetup.exe file and SSDTBI_VS2012_x86.exe file. The versions are 11.0.3402.0
    and 11.1.31203.1.
    I have spent 3 days trying to get this working so I can create some SSIS projects. Please someone help me.....
    thanks,

    Hi Shavona,
    According to your description, we need to verify if the error message is “Command "Report.NoOp" is not valid” when you install Microsoft SQL Server Data Tools - Business Intelligence for Visual Studio 2012.
     If yes, it seems that the BI Templates are not installed properly. Please ensure that you have selected “Perform a new installation of SQL Server 2012” instead of “Add features to an existing instance of SQL Server 2012” when installing the
    update.
    For more information about how to install SQL Server Data Tools - Business Intelligence for Visual Studio 2012, you can review the following post.
