When Telerik UI for WinForms / WPF extensions are installed, Visual Studio is unresponsive for a couple of minutes after a solution is loaded. During that time, "Updating source control status…" is shown.

Workarounds:

• Disable Telerik UI for WinForms / WPF extensions.
• Checkout the solution file.

When there is empty folder under "%appdata%\Telerik\Updates" the WinForms Upgrade wizard fails with

System.IO.FileNotFoundException: C:\Users\mstefanov\AppData\Roaming\Telerik\Updates\Telerik_UI_For_WinForms_2022_3_1109_Dev_dlls\BinNetCore\Telerik.WinControls.dll

Steps:

 

 

We can update our extensions to honor the ImplicitUsings settings set globally for new projects. For the item templates, we will need to also check the project settings.

Dear Ladies and Gentlemen

Currently I am trying in vain to upgrade to the latest version Telerik UI for WinForms 2022.1.118.
However, the update fails with the error given below.

I have already uninstalled and reinstalled VS2019. Unfortunately this did not help.

Can you help?

Best Timo

Currently, after installing Visual Studio 2022 and Telerik UI for WinForms suite on a Windows 11 Arm I cannot see any extension installed on Extension menu:

Telerik VS extensions may cause performance issues that impact both the responsiveness and the overall performance of Visual Studio.

Currently, adding a standard MS Form also shows the .vb extension. However, adding a RadForm shows only the name which may lead to incorrect name of the form as it is demonstrated in the attached gif file:

VS 2022 17.5.1 successfully converts a blank WinForms project without any Telerik control in it.

VS 2022 17.6.2  hangs:

When you want to do the Upgrade Wizard, the following error appears: Failed to execute command.

I already reinstalled three times and it doesn't work in any way.  :(

 

Below is the error.  I had removed all the references and was trying to add them back through the configure project extension vs 2019 and vs 2022 threw the same error. 

 

An error occurred while running the wizard.

Stop Expanding ALL the Telerik Toolbox control groups when Visual Studio 2017 loads a project! YES, we know your there! We PUT you there.. If we need you, we know where you are! Please quit over-convoluting the toolbox menu by obnoxiously expanding all your toolbox control groups!

Steps to reproduce:

1. Install R1 2021 SP1 (2021.1.204)
2. Create a Telerik WinForms project and drag a RadTostNotificationManager from the Toolbox and drop it onto the form. The following two references are required for using RadToastNotification:

   

   

   The important information here is the version of the Microsoft.Toolkit.Uwp.Notifications: 6.1.0.0

   

3. Run the Upgrade Wizard and upgrade to R2 2021 (2021.2.511):

After the upgrade process is successfully completed, you can see that the Toolbox version is successfully updated as well as the Telerik references in the project:

However, the version of the Microsoft.Toolkit.Uwp.Notifications still remains 6.1.0.0 even though in the installation folder we distribute the updated version 7.0.0.0:

Then, if you try to build the project, you will see the following error message:

Workaround: Remove the existing Microsoft.Toolkit.Uwp.Notifications assembly and add it anew using the references from the installation folder: C:\Program Files (x86)\Progress\Telerik UI for WinForms R2 2021\Bin40 It is expected to be the correct version 7.0.0.0.  

 

 

Hello,

 

I am using my own nuget server to deploy the Telerik Packages.

So I downloaded the file"Telerik_UI_For_WinForms_2020_3_915_Nuget_Dev.zip"

Unfortunately, the contained file "UI.for.WinForms.GridView.2020.3.915.nupkg" is broken:

For any reason, in the subfolder "lib\net40\" there are three different TelerikData.dll and TelerikData.XML files. When importing in our Nuget server, this leads to an error

Error: An exception occurred while rebuilding the package store: System.ArgumentException: Das Element wurde bereits hinzugefügt. Schlüssel im Wörterbuch: "lib/net40/TelerikData.dll". Hinzuzufügender Schlüssel: "lib/net40/TelerikData.dll".

Could you please fix your build-and-deploy process and re-upload the package?

 

Best regards

Daniel Petat

I upgraded to latest version of Win UI controls, and opened a project for an Outlook COM Addin. There has been no problems upgrading Telerik controls in that project until now. It's a Class Library project with Telerik forms in it. Now I have to change project type to Windows Forms, upgrade Telerik and then back to Class Library. Silly really... :)

It appears that RadControlSpy.dll isn't packaged with any of the Telerik.UI.for.WinForms NuGet packages and isn't available as a standalone package.

This request is to make the DLL available as a standalone NuGet package available on the Telerik NuGet server.

Theme Names aren't sorted in the Properties window of VS2019

hi,

when upgrading from telerik winforms r3 sp1 2018 to r1 2019 using vb.net 2012 i received an error

what is we have to do

regards

To reproduce: please refer to the attached sample video

1. Uninstall the already existing version of the Telerik UI for WinForms suite. Ensure that you don't have any installation and the Telerik menu is not visible in Visual Studio.
2. Open Visual Studio >> Tools >> Extensions and Update and search for Telerik WinForms VSExtensions. Install it.
3. After restarting Visual Studio, create a new Telerik project. You may be prompt to download the latest version during the creation process. 
4. Run the Toolbox configurator in order to obtain the proper version in the toolbox.
5. After the project is created, open the form's designer and drag a Telerik control from the toolbox and drop it onto the form. Open the Designer.cs and you will notice that control's declaration is inside the InitializeComponent method, not outside as expected.

The issue is not reproducible each time you follow the steps. It was reproduced with Visual Stidio 2012 on Windows 10. 

Workaround:

Download the Telerik UI for WinForms msi from your account and install the suite.

I see no use for the templates that are currently provided. I'm never going to build a new Word or Outlook type application. Some templates that might be useful would be along the lines of structure for business apps. Something that would give a framework for building apps for business use.
