After installing a Visual Studio 2013 I started work on a new web project using .NET 4.5.1. When I attempted to set up a publish profile on it I got the following error:
Exception in executing publishing : Could not load file or assembly 'Microsoft.VisualStudio.Web.AzureAD.Contracts, Version=2.0.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublishKeyToken=b03f5f7f11d50a3a' or one of its dependencies. The system cannot find the file specified.
Solution
Install Windows Azure SDK for .NET (VS 2013) by following these steps:
- Go to http://www.windowsazure.com/en-us/downloads and on click the “VS 2013 Install” link under .NET category
- Download and install the Windows Azure SDK installer which uses Microsoft’s WPI (Web Platform Installer)
