VS 2013 The name “LocalizedStrings” does not exist in the namespace

Question

My question exactly looks like this one : The name "LocalizedStrings" does not exist in the namespace

Except that the answers i tried didn't work with me.

I'm using visual studio 2013 and windows 8.1 enterprise (fresh install).

Any other suggestions?

Answer 1

Repairing Visual studio did the Trick!

Answer 2

Close Visual Studio. Than, delete sub folders 10.0 and 11.0 from "%LOCALAPPDATA%\Microsoft\Phone Tools\CoreCon\" Open Visual Studio and rebuild solution.

Answer 3

I also faced the same issue in VS 2013 for a Windows Phone 8 project. In my case one of the packages (Nokia imaging SDK to be precise) had to use ARM architecture. All I had to do is to change my solution's configuration manager.

• Right click on your solution file in VS, select properties
• In "Configuration Properties", select "Configuration Manager"
• Now select the solution platform you need to use for builds on your solution.

Hope this helps you.
