I used to work with CoronaCard before. But now, I have trouble installing it.
I reinstalled my windows.First, I used Visual Studio 2015, but didn’t feel comfortable.
So I installed Visual Studio 2013. And when I installed CoronaCards, it said:
“The extension ‘Corona Framework for Windows Phone’ require a version of the .NET Framework that is not installed”
So could you tell me which version of .NET Framework I need?
I’m using Windows 8.1 and Visual Studio 2013 update 4.
Odds are when you re-installed Visual Studio 2013, you forgot to check-on “Windows Phone 8.0 SDK” support. You can update/modify your Visual Studio installation by doing the following:
Go to “Uninstall a program” under the Windows control panel.
Select “Microsoft Visual Studio 2013” in the list and click the “Change” button.
Click the “Modify” button in the Visual Studio window that pops up.
Check-on the “Windows Phone 8.0 SDK” option.
Click the “Update” button and follow Visual Studio’s instructions from there.
Once installation has completed, re-attempt to install the CoronaCards vsix (Visual Studio Extension).
There are so many extensions having this bug. They are fixed by editing the Dependency tag in ‘extension.vsixmanifest’ file.
I tried with CoronaCard but it didn’t work. ( After removing the Dependency block, I can install CoronaCard but can’t find or add CoronaFrameWork reference in Visual Studio )
No one on our end has time right now to dig into this. Definitely not in the next few weeks. We’re just insanely busy over here.
Microsoft provides .NET uninstall instructions here. In summary, you need to go to Windows 8’s “Turn Windows features on and off” window under the control panel.
If you’re still unable to uninstall .NET 4.6, then perhaps the solution is to go back to an earlier Windows restore point via “System Restore”. Windows automatically creates these restore points for you after doing Windows updates and other key events. Of course, I only recommend this as a last resort. You can find this option here…
Go to the “System Properties” window.
Select the “System Protection” tab.
Click the “System Restore” button.
Follow the wizard window’s instructions from here.
