DLL profiling in Visual Studio 2013 Pro cannot find VSPerfControl.Interop

I've tried debugging DLLs in Visual Studio 2013 Pro and I keep getting these errors

Could not load file or assembly 'VSPerfControl.Interop, Version = 12.0.0.0, Culture = neutral, PublicKeyToken = b03f5f7f11d50a3a

I've been stuck with this for a while and I would appreciate any comments. The MSDN website only talks about the premium version of VS, so I'm not sure if dll profiling actually works on Professional

The issue was resolved by reinstalling it to the default folder.

The problem can be resolved without reinstalling

You need to do:

1 - Open the start menu by clicking eg Windows logo on Windows, Windows logo on your keyboard.

2 - From the start menu enter dev . This will bring up a list of installed apps matching your search pattern. If you're looking for a different command line, try a different search term, such as a prompt.

3 - select developer command line (or command line prompt you want to use) - RUN AS ADMINISTRATOR



4 - Now you need to check if VSPerfControl.Interop is in this path: C: \ Program Files \ Microsoft Visual Studio 12.0 \ Team Tools \ Performance Tools

5 - If it doesn't, you need to reinstall. If there is, you need to navigate to this path using the command line (cd C: \ Program Files \ Microsoft Visual Studio 12.0 \ Team Tools \ Performance Tools)

6 - After that you have to execute this command line:

gacutil / i VSPerfControl.Interop.dll

Now open Visual Studio and be happy !!!
