Answer 1

I also had this problem in VS2010 VB.NET, Thanks Rene! Unchecking project_properties.security.enable click once removed my problem

How my symptoms manifested: I had a custom user control on a form, and was forced to remove any reference to it manually inside InitializeComponent() subroutine

reason: my Winform had corrupted just after I modified the New() subroutine of my custom user control, where I changed the New() to add arg's and I didn't create a 'default' Sub New() with no arg's, as required for winform page rendering)
