But in some software, the T&C is just a "I already told you so" from the developers because it is normally to late to get a refund by the time one gets a chance to read it ... ;)

I left my visual studio working correctly and switched off the machine. When i came back every project gives the error message:

"Error while trying to run project:
Could not load file or assembly 'Name_of_Project'
or one of its dependencies. The module was
expected to contain an assembly manifest."

I have googled various areas including http://social.msdn.microsoft.com/Forums/en-US/vbide/thread/0f139bc5-08e1-43d6-a438-1aa44ad63e10/[^] Please assist because i have a feeling formatting the computer might not be the best solution.
