IntelliSense won't work for MVC Razor cshtml page

Question

I encountered

There is no build provider registered for extension cshtml

error for one of my projects that use MVC 3. That makes auto-complete not work. The program still runs, but it's quite annoying.

I already have the Web.config in place and included all required references. As a matter of fact, my other projects that have the same configuration do not have the problem.

Am I missing anything other than checking the Web.config and references?

Is the cshtml file in the standard views or shared folder? – Walt Ritscher Dec 13 '11 at 02:05 — Walt Ritscher, Dec 13 '11 at 02:05
Are all the cshtml files in the project affected? – Walt Ritscher Dec 13 '11 at 06:55 — Walt Ritscher, Dec 13 '11 at 06:55

I got the same problem. When I Uninstall (Microsoft ASP.NET MVC 3 - Visual Studio 2010 Tools Update & Microsoft ASP.NET MVC 3) patches from the computer. and Re-Install the Microsoft ASP.NET MVC 3 - Visual Studio 2010 Tools Update Patch. It's working fine just like before.
