Since updating to the Q2 2011 version just recently, I find that none of my applications that uses the Tererik controls work, nor can I create a new app and add Telerik controls to it.
Here is a simplified Test Case:
I created a fresh WPF application project, opened the MainWindow.xaml, and tried to drag a RadMenu onto it.
It throws up this Error Dialog:
Set property 'System.Windows.ResourceDictionary.Source' threw an
exception.
"Cannot locate resource 'themes/genericmetro.xaml'."
OK
I'd like to know how the Telerik RadControls for WPF installation works, so that I can understand a bit of what's going on. The installation folder, in C:\Program Files (x86)\Telerik, has a folder that would seem to be an older version: RadControls for WPF Q3 2010 SP1\Binaries\WPF\and so on.
Within AppData\Roaming\Telerik, I see an Updates folder with various folders for hotfixes. And the csproj file contains hintPaths that point to these. So, clearly the hintPaths are trying to redirect VS to find the latest versions of our assemblies. Is this the mechanism that is not working here? Would it help to just un-install Telerik, and reinstall something that is the latest version with the hotfixes already rolled into it?
Thank you for your help,
