Sample build failure.
Hi!
I have installed Sitefinity 4.4 and the SDK and both install on my system with no issues.
When I try and run the 'sample in browser' no matter what sample I try to run, I get the following error :

Can someone please help, thanks.
Sorry, has anyone else had this issue? Im keen to get this working. Thanks.
Ive found a work around, what I do is open the sample in visual studio instead of in browser, build the project in VS and then view in browser from within Visual Studio. Samples all work now. Still get an error if I try and view in browser within the SDK but at least this works.
Hi Owain,
We have dug deep regarding the error you are getting :
The specified solution configuration "Debug|BWS" is invalid
and it seems to be related to your configuration. We also tried to reproduce it but with no success. However, please make sure to navigate to the following articles which contain useful information on what can be the cause and the solution of the problem:

Thanks for your help. The regedit hack fixed the issue!
