Could not load file or assembly ‘Antlr3.Runtime’ Error in Visual Studio 2013 Express

While working on the Visual Studio 2013 Express, I was happily burning the midnight oil to produce a new application, the application was coming on nicely.

But When I started work next day, suddenly I started getting the following error message.


Could not load file or assembly 'Antlr3.Runtime' or one of its dependencies. The parameter is incorrect. (Exception from HRESULT: 0x80070057 (E_INVALIDARG))

 

After searching for long and trying different optionx the following solution did work for me and I was back in action. Hope you can benefit it from as well.

Step 1
Go to the file explorer and search for %Temp% (See the screen below)

Antlr3RuntimeIssueScreen1

Step 2
You would see lots of file in Temp folder. Delete them all.

Step 3

Run Visual Studio 2013 Express again and you would be able to work again on your project.
