Visual Studio 2010 - Cannot add assembly references from the GAC

I have now gone over to Visual Studio 2010 Beta 2

I have used it for a few days, but now I can no longer add references from the GAC.

Sorry since this is not directly a development question, but I was not sure where to ask.

Does someone know how to fix this?

Solution

  • Check the Global Assembly Cache. You may have done something very very bad.

    EDIT

    I noticed you are using Silverlight:

    C:\Program Files\Reference Assemblies\Microsoft\Framework\Silverlight\v4.0

    I cannot find the Microsoft.CSharp.dll I can only find Microsoft.VisualBasic.dll to use. Where is the C# dll located for Silverlight 4? I wasn’t able to find it on my computer.
