I have a simple lightswitch application, with some grid and comboboxs in it, whenever i select different item within combobox an Exception message appear randomly like:

Catastrophic failure (Exception from HRESULT: 0x8000FFFF (E_UNEXPECTED))

and after several click on exception's ok button application continue running without any problem.
I don't know actually how to handle this problem to never show this exception message. what can we do now?

Have you tried to use the debugger? Set a stop point and execute in step mode (line after line). Find out where the code throws the exception and post the relevant code snippet here. Without code is very difficult to tell you where the error is.
