I have used workaround from this blog post to install MS Dynamics CRM 2013 Developer Toolkit on Visual Studio 2015. Many people have installed it and using it without problems. However, when I try to bind to my online CRM instance, I get this error:

Could not load file or assembly 'Microsoft.Windows.Design.Host, Version=4.0.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=b03f5f7f11d50a3a' or one of its dependencies. The system cannot find the file specified.

enter image description here

Am I missing something here ?

Hi Daryl. I'm just starting out with CRM development. Most of the tutorials online for creating client side scripts and plugins are based on this. I have managed to not to get this error when I select version of .NET > 4.5.2 when creating solution. But I still don't understand why. – azec-pdx

Have you got .NET Framework 4.5.2 installed? I remember having to install this, even on Windows 10 which is supposed to have it.
