How to fix mscorlib exception: Unrecognized OS PlatformId.

2 New Member
On my dev machine Silverlight applications won't run out of browser. I get a blank window. The apps run fine in the browser and on other machines in or out of the browser. This happens with my apps, other people's apps, brand new VS2010 projects, etc.

A bit of digging revealed that the OOB app causes an Unrecognized OS PlatformId exception in mscorlib. Presumably this prevents it from executing.

I reinstalled all Silverlight components including all VS2010 components and the SDK. This made no difference. Wiping the whole machine would probably fix the problem, but I'd prefer to avoid this for the obvious reason that reinstalling it is a lot of work.

Does anyone have suggestions for how to troubleshoot this problem or should I just bite the bullet and redo the machine?

Thank you!

Martin

The source of the problem turns out to be a corrupted user profile (http://social.answers.microsoft.com/...9-50dbe7e30759).

i have a method which throws an exception. the thing i dont understand is that the only change between the two versions is a line of code AFTER the one that throws the exception - see code below the only difference between the il BEFORE the line throwing the exception is a BR.S as opposed to BR, due to the length of the branch required, which makes sense. anyone know what is going on?

Hi, For some procedures that throws exceptions, I would like to show different messages to the user depending on what type of exception he's getting. For instance this one: when the file is locked, I want a messagebox to tell that the user has to close the file first.

Hello folks, I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>".
