Add reference is failing on VS 2010 when I have installed VS 2012 RC. Why?

    Thats why they always say to put beta stuff not on a product machine.. I had the same problem with the silverlight 5 rc too – BugFinder Jun 20 '12 at 12:07

    Many things don't work through VS 2010 when you install the VS 2012. I had [some same issues](http://stackoverflow.com/questions/9758204/tests-are-no-longer-executed-through-visual-studio-2010-after-visual-studio-11-b) which were solved when I installed the [VS2010 SP1](http://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=23691) – chaliasos Jun 20 '12 at 12:08

Uninstall vs 2012, vs 2010 will give you "Unknown error", a small error message, repair vs 2010 (re-install it), and it will be OK!
