Can you please download .NET Core 3.1.401, then install it, perform the registration of those two files again and see if it works?

Re: Import Visual Studio Project Exception calling

Hello and welcome to our forums,

The steps you need to follow are presented above.

Here is what you need to do:

1. check whether .NET Core 3.1 SDK is installed or not. If not, install it using the following link:

.NET Core 3.1 SDK (v3.1.401) - Windows x64 Installer

2. after the installation, open a command prompt and copy paste the commands:

Code: Select all

cd C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft SDKs\Windows\v10.0A\bin\NETFX 4.8 Tools
and

Code: Select all

gacutil -i "c:\Program Files\dotnet\sdk\3.1.401\Sdks\Microsoft.NET.Sdk.WindowsDesktop\tools\net472\System.Numerics.Vectors.dll"
and

Code: Select all

gacutil -i "c:\Program Files\dotnet\sdk\3.1.401\Sdks\Microsoft.NET.Sdk.WindowsDesktop\tools\net472\System.Runtime.CompilerServices.Unsafe.dll"
Hope this helps!

Re: Import Visual Studio Project Exception calling

Hello Henrik,

That specific error usually means that the product is already installed on the machine.

Therefore, you can skip the installation step and move on to the next step.

Re: Import Visual Studio Project Exception calling

Hello Henrik,

Unfortunately, I can not say for sure why this is happening.

Could you please try to uninstall version 3.1.414 and then install the version 3.1.401, register those two components and retest this?

Additionally, are you receiving the exact same error as the previous users? Perhaps something is different in your scenario.

If possible, could you please forward me a screenshot of the error?

Unfortunately, downgrading to SDK 3.1.401 and running:

Re: Import Visual Studio Project Exception calling

Hello Henrik,

Thank you for your followup on this!

Well, indeed the solution did not help, because you are facing another problem than the users above.

The error message states that the SDK "Microsoft.NET.Sdk.WindowsDesktop" could not be found. Could you please check whether this is installed on your machine or not?

The following Microsoft article might help:

.NET Project SDK overview

Hope this helps!

Re: Import Visual Studio Project Exception calling

Hi Catalin,

Thx for your assistance.

Please let me know how to install SDK "Microsoft.NET.Sdk.WindowsDesktop"?
It's not installed, and I'm unable to locate it as a MS downloadable or component in VS installer.

Re: Import Visual Studio Project Exception calling

Hello Henrik,

You should be able to download it from here:

.NET/.NET Core

The current one is the 5.0 version. However, you may need to select the version according to what .NET your application is targetting.

Hope this helps!
