XAML Designer crashes Object reference not set to an instance of an object

Question

I\'m using Visual Studio 2015 Community.

So, I created a blank UW App (C++) and I wanted to start looking around, because that\'s my first time using the XAML Designer.

Answer 1

You're probably using static resources or theme resources (for brushes or something like that) that aren't used by Windows 10 UAPs. Try removing the static resources from your XAML files and see if your app works.
