Following a crash of Visual Studio I'm experiencing an issue where all of my Telerik tags on my aspx pages have blue underlines.  Mousing over the underlined tags reveals the following error message "Unrecognized tag prefix or device filter 'telerik'".  I've also lost Telerik intellisense.  Does anyone know what the solution is? I've tried removing and re-adding all of the Telerik references and bin files.  This did not fix the problem.

Note, prior to Visual Studio crashing I had made only a few minor text edits to the project...nothing that major that I would expect could have caused these problems.  I'm using VS 2010.

Hello,

Make sure that you set the TagPrefix as telerik.
ASPX:
<%@ Register Assembly="Telerik.Web.UI" Namespace="Telerik.Web.UI" TagPrefix="telerik" %>

Thanks,
Princy.

I did that already.  It doesn't solve the problem.  What else could cause a problem like this?

I attempted the fixes listed on that page.  Unfortunately none of them solved the problem.  Any other ideas?

I've just tried everything on that page and still Visual Studio is not recognizing the telerik tag prefix.  What else could the problem be?

I also tried these solutions, none of them works for me too. 

I started to get this error, after i have upgraded it to a new version. I am not installed telerik on computer.

Ok, found the answear. The Telerik.Web.Desing was of older version than Telerik.Web.UI;
In short, version mismatch in Telerik.Web.*.dll.
Still i am getting errors in Design View

I had a similar issue, and the solution was to replace all Telerik files in the Bin folder with the newer versions (not just Telerik.Web.UI.dll).  These files are typically located in your c:\program files\telerik\[release version]\Bin[.net version] folder.

I never could find the Telerik.Web.UI.dll in the GAC, in spite of running the update and "make a telerik website" wizards repeatedly.  Finally, I was able to find where the files were downloaded by Telerik (C:\Users\<user>\AppData\Roaming\Telerik\Updates\Telerik_UI_for_ASP.NET_AJAX_2016_3_1018_Dev_hotfix\Bin40).  I copied them to the bin folder of my project, made sure the references were set to the copy in the bin, and it worked.
