Serializing document failed

[MattChique]

I get this exceptions after load of the project. And livesharp does not respond any more. But project is running fine.

This is quite a roadblock now @ionoy - any idea what could be done here? Thanks!

[ionoy]

Do you have x.Shared namespace defined somewhere? Where can this error come from?

[MattChique]

Yes, there are some libraries.

You can try the following.

1) Go to the global NuGet packages directory (something like c:\Users\{user}\.nuget\packages\) 2) Remove livesharp directory 3) Rebuild the project and run again
