I am new to WPF. When I create a new WPF project in Visual Studio 2010 .net framework 4.0. and compile it shows a error message

Error 1 Could not load type 'Microsoft.Windows.Design.Metadata.FeatureKeyAttribute' from assembly 'Microsoft.Windows.Design.Platform, Version=4.0.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=b03f5f7f11d50a3a'. c:\users\admin\documents\visual studio 2010\Projects\WpfApplication2\WpfApplication2\MainWindow.xaml 1

Even the designer shows error. How to get away with this error?

It seems like there is a problem with the file structure of your computer. Have you made sure that all of your files that you need are in the folder that Visual Studio is reading from? Go and check by looking in the folder where Visual Studio saves all of the files.

As Mathew suggested, I re-installed visual studio and problem got resolved.
