Visual Studio warning: "Some of the properties associated with the solution could not be read"

When I open my solution, I get a dialog with this warning. The solution (one web app, one class project) builds without errors.

How can I determine what properties are causing the problem, and resolve the error?

Solution

  • I just fixed a similar issue with a VS2010 solution with 35 projects... The cause was a duplicated

    GlobalSection(TeamFoundationVersionControl)

    section in the solution file. I closed the solution, removed the duplicate GlobalSection(TeamFoundationVersionControl) config and reloaded the solution and the warning message was gone.

    If this is not the issue for you, considering you only have 2 projects I would ditch the busted solution file, create a fresh solution and re-add your two projects...
