HRESULT: 0x80270254 in Windows Phone Programming

5

I am having trouble win visual studio 2013. Whenever I create new project for windows phone 8.1 application, the MainPage.xaml works fine until I restart or shutdown my laptop . But when I turn on my laptop and try to open that existing project the MainPage.xaml does not load. It says

System.Runtime.InteropServices.COMException
This app does not support the contract specified or is not installed. (Exception from HRESULT: 0x80270254)

Here is the full error details.

I just updated my vs with update 4 and the problem gone.

I had exactly the same problem. In my case helped re-install Visual Studio.
It takes a long time, especially "Configuring your system, this may take a while" part, but the problem's solved.
My environment: Windows 8.1 Pro x64 + Visual Studio 2013 Community

read my answer here: https://stackoverflow.com/a/24772492/416210, it's just an attempt but it solved the issue for me with just a reboot.
