VS2013 cannot properly resolve namespaces in WPF when the code is on a network share. What this means is that if you create a UserControl (in ANY namespace in your solution), and you try to add that user control in the XAML of another control or Window, you will be told that your UserControl doesn't exist in the specified namespace. The only workaround for this is to put ALL of your code on a local disk. I've discovered that it's impossible to get the code to compile if I create a base UserControl class from which to inherit. Instead, I have to duplicate code in half a dozen UserControls to get the freakin' code to compile. This has been a problem since WPF was introduced, and I would not be at all surprised to find out that VS2015 suffers from the same f*cked up "feature", because Microsoft has demonstrated a propensity for not fixing the important shit in their crap products.
This is especially problematic for me because I work on a DoD network, and they DON'T BACKUP LOCAL DRIVES, not to mention the fact that our IT department specifically DELETES anything not related to the OS every night.
I have to store my code in the MyDocuments folder with is redirected to a remote shared drive.
Working on a DoD network is stupendously absurd, because they intentionally make it onerous to work as a developer.

I assume you've tried updating devenv.exe.config?
="1.0"
<configuration>
<runtime>
<loadFromRemoteSources enabled="true"/>
</runtime>
</configuration>
By default, remote assemblies do not run in the .NET Framework 4 and later. To run a remote assembly, you must either run it as fully trusted or create a sandboxed AppDomain in which to run it.
And I'd guess that VS2015 doesn't have this problem:
In the .NET Framework 4.5, assemblies on local network shares are run as full trust by default; you do not have to enable the <loadfromremotesources> element.

I can't change the config because it's in a restricted folder and requires admin rights.

See? Everyone thinks I'm just an asshole, but the truth of the matter is the I'm faced with an overwhelming deluge of daily absurdities that should long ago have seen me in the headlines for shooting up my workplace.

And I think my work environment is bad, I've been waiting 6 weeks for them to work out how to give me local admin rights but at least I have the prospect of getting local admin rights, but you can't even get at the config files for an app you are working on!
I have to apologise, I always think of you as a gun crazy redneck, now I begin to understand how you got that way

To be honest, I don't really like guns.
However that does not absolve me from my duty as an American to have one, "being necessary for the security of a free state". If I'm not ready and willing to fight to preserve the Constitution, I can't very well use it as a shield.
All that being said, I don't see the term "gun crazy" as being applicable. Sure there are some folks that might be, but I don't have what I see as a lot of weapons. Two rifles, a shotgun and two pistols. I know guys that own dozens of weapons and tens of thousands of rounds of ammo, and calling any of them crazy in any context is probably a mistake.

Not at all. When my grandfather passed away, there were three components to his estate: two farms, his machine shop and related tools, and his gun collection. The gun collection was the highest-value component of the three.

I understand the pain. I did a 4 year stint at DHS, CBP.
The mantra was "Work Smarter, not Harder". They also said you were not allow to write scripts/code to automate any tasks, even the very repetitive ones, like creating users.

... and it took you 4 years to get smarter.

Yeah...me, too...and then when the network hiccups, all work stops. And I can't even close VS because it tries to write stuff during the close process.

I take it that mapping a share to a network drive doesn't work around the problem - or that you're not allowed to map a network drive to begin with?

Antoine Augustin Parmentier[^] was a strong promoter of the potato as a food source. But to overcome the suspicious nature of the French people he came up with a brilliant way to promote the spud.
He had a field planted with potatoes, put armed guards around the field and ordered them to take bribes.

Read the wikipedia article. That's a good story of someone being extremely innovative. Thanks for sharing.

Both the potato and the tomato plants belong to the nightshade family. Some parts of the plants are definitely not very healthy. That's why both plants first were regarded as exotic and not very decorative specimen. It took a while before their agricultural value was realized and the fear of cultivating dangerous poisonous plants was overcome. Getting the people to plant, harvest and eat them may have been a little difficult.

This is Javascript. If you put big wheels and a racing stripe on a golf cart, it's still a f***ing golf cart.

"No, from Canada."

Not, I suspect, as difficult as persuading people to eat the first oyster: "Yes, yes, it looks like a rock I just sneezed into - but try it - it might be lovely!"

Ican't help but wonder how someone can come to think that there are people who don't recognize a milk bar when they see one and have absolutely no idea what to do with it.
