Combine VS2015 preview with TypeScript 1.3 at your own risk - it may result

After installing VS2015 Preview, I decided to create an MVC project and add a new TypeScript file. However, when trying to compile, I encountered the following error message:

The "TypeScript.Tasks.VsTsc" task could not be loaded from the assembly C:\Program Files (x86)\MSBuild\Microsoft\VisualStudio\v14.0\TypeScript\TypeScript.tasks.dll. Could not load file or assembly 'file:///C:\Program Files (x86)\MSBuild\Microsoft\VisualStudio\v14.0\TypeScript\TypeScript.tasks.dll' or one of its dependencies. The system cannot find the file specified. Confirm that the declaration is correct, that the assembly and all its dependencies are available, and that the task contains a public class that implements Microsoft.Build.Framework.ITask. WebApplication1

In my search for TypeScript.tasks.dll, I only came across:

c:\Program Files (x86)\MSBuild\Microsoft\VisualStudio\v12.0\TypeScript\TypeScript.Tasks.dll

and

c:\Program Files (x86)\MSBuild\Microsoft\VisualStudio\v11.0\TypeScript\TypeScript.Tasks.dll

Any suggestions on how to resolve this issue?

Answer №1

After installing Visual Studio 2015, I found that installing TypeScript 1.3 for Visual Studio 2013 actually helped. Quite unusual...

Answer №2

It appears that there is an issue with the TypeScript 1.3 powertool installer. I have discovered that utilizing the repair feature in Add/Remove Programs resolves the installation problem in majority of cases.
