Answer:

D:\Windows\Microsoft.NET\Framework\v4.0.xx

if more than one "v4.0.xx"

keep one, and rename other like "old_v4.0.xx"

test, you can pass

 

[COPY]

I uninstalled VS 2010 Beta 2 then installed VS2010 RC then found out that Silverlight 4 is not supported in the RC version of VS, so I reinstalled VS 2010 Beta 2 and got the compile error. I looked in "C:\Windows\Microsoft.NET\Framework\" directory and had three folders refering to "v4.0.xx". I followed the work around on just renaming all the "v4.0.xx" folders to "Old_v4.0.xx" and left the folder "v4.0.21006" as is. This solved my problem.
