Visual Studio Express Crashing on Build (F5) - windows-8

Complete beginners question here, literally.
I'm interested in developing Windows 8 Apps so I've just downloaded the development tools and installed them following the starting guide found here: Part 1 - Create a "Hello, world" App.
I followed the instructions exactly however Step 2 does not work, when I try and run the app. I hit F5 and then says in the Output module that the deployment is successful but the app does not run as indicated in the tutorial. I left it for 10 mins but the entire Visual Studio program was unresponsive so I ended the task in task manager.
The app did get added to the Windows 8 start screen and I CAN run it from there.
I then opened the program again and tried F5 once more, again this time the Output module indiates "Deployment Started.." but then the program crashes again.
Am I missing something or doing something wrong? I literally haven't changed a single line of code.
Also cancelling the build does not work.
Thanks for any hep!
UPDATE: In case it is confusing I use "Build" in the title because that is the term from the tutorial, I have noticed that under the menu's F5 is actually titled "Debugging" and "Build" is F7, I'm not sure if the tutorial has made a mistake, either way it does not affect my issue.

A simple re-start managed to fix this issue however I still have no idea what caused it!

C# application runs in the background as a process now i cant build the solution and cannot even kill the process

I ran into a very weird problem today with my C# application. I downloaded it today (from a trustworthy source my classmate sent me back the program we do together) At first when i tried to build and run the application, the whole visual studio got frozen and the app didnt even appear. After a lot of trying this problem just disappeared all of a sudden. However, now I cannot even build the solution, because I get the "unable to copy file because it is being used by another process" error message. I checked the task manager and the program runs in the background. I cant kill it because I have no access to do that(access denied message), I cant do that with a terminal command either(Because the terminal says this exe file is not running) and what is more even restarting my pc 2 times didnt make it disappear. It is no more in the processes after a restart, but i can still see it in the details view of the task manager.
I just have this program running in the background literally forever now?
Someone could explain me what even happened and if there is any way to solve it? I could even code (and build) the program for a while!

Unable to install My program. Mostly has to do with Crystal Reports

Okay, This question has probably been asked before but I can't seem to solve it with anything that I've seen.
I published my program and tried setting it up on another computer. At first it gave me this error:
"Unable to install or run the application. the application requires that assembly microsoft.reportviewer.processingobjectmodel version 9.0.0.0 be installed in the global assembly cache (GAC) first."
After searching I found that including everything in the 'Application Files' before publishing made that go away, only to be replaced with
'Application cannot be started. Contact the application vendor.'
After searching and doing a lot of things on the computer that I want this program to be setup on, I checked (Crystal Report Basic For Visual Studio 2008 (x84, x64)) in the Prerequisite.
On the Computer that I need this program on, it won't download this at all. It gives me a message box to either retry or cancel.
Some pages suggest that the Crystal report package that automatically downloads is not the right one. When I tried following what is said here, I got stuck because the links won't open.
Any help appreciated, It's frustrating because I've been working on this program for months and I get stuck on the last step :/
oh .. and ... I don't know if this has anything to do with this, but I built the program using Windows 7, then updated to Windows 8, then updated to Windows 10.
I finally managed to make it work :)
Here is what I did:
I followed this video and I was able to install my program to the other computer.
When I opened it, I got a problem that the program can't find my MS Access DataBase, so I went to the setup project -> Right click -> add -> File, And I navigated to my original project's folder and added everything in there, and Viola! ... It works :)
I hope this helps somebody else :)

How to install Visual Paradigm on Netbeans?

I'm following the instructions here but it seems not to work. I'll contact the developer, but wonder if someone has been able to make it work somehow.
The installation process is completed, but Netbeans doesn't see the plug-in. I assume it is deployed incorrectly.
Not sure how it got fixed but suddenly upon starting the IDE an update for the plugin showed up and it started working afterwards.

Worklight Console can not be opened because the Worklight Server is not running

I'm just getting started with some of the samples at the Getting Started site, working with the Developers Edition. Whenever I Open Worklight Console, the eclipse environment abends. I'm sure I missed a set up item, but all seemed to install well. I appreciate any help / direction. Thanks.
I tried to post an image of the error, but stackoverflow indicates I need 10 reputations to post an image. Go figure.
The first line is Java was started but returned exit code=8096
There are some hits on this indicating that the license may not be compatible with the Rational license installed. Not sure what to do with that.
There's another post indicating Environment Variable corruption, but I don't have the corrupt Temp environment variables indicated.
StackOverflow has a FAQ explaining what one can and cannot do and when. It makes sense. Read it.
Did you at least create a new Worklight project and application?
If you do that and run the application by right-clicking on the application in the project tree and choose Run As > Run on Worklight Development Server this will: start the server + build the app + deploy the app.
Then you can right-click on the project icon and choose Open Worklight Console and you will see the console...
So unless you have some errors preventing the server from loading, the above should work.
Host the image elsewhere, like imgur.com
Explain what you have installed in your Eclipse. Which Eclipse is it? Did you install only Worklight Studio, or another plug-in in addition? Which?
What are those "hits" you mention? Elaborate.
Searching for the exit code in Google, I see the following IBM tech notes:
http://www-01.ibm.com/support/docview.wss?uid=swg21303648
http://www-01.ibm.com/support/docview.wss?uid=swg21567836
http://www-01.ibm.com/support/docview.wss?uid=swg21627887
Perhaps one of them is relevant for you as well.
If you have followed Idan's advice to Run on Worklight Development Server and it is still not started, try this:
Switch to the Servers view (on the bottom pane of Eclipse by default).
Check your Worklight Development Server status
Right-click and select Clean...
Select OK when prompted to discard all publish start.
Redeploy your app using Run As > Run on Worklight Development Server
I am not sure if this would clean up your environment variable error message as I have not seen that one, but it has helped with several other errors that have caused my server to not start or run properly. (The most common one I get is an Out of Memory in the server.)

C++Builder XE3 needs to be restarted after each run in the debugger or app crashes on next run

This is kind of weird, and I only seem to be seeing this on Windows 7 (when I build the app in windows 8 this does not seem to be happening). I see this with C++Builder XE through XE3. I will compile an app (statically linking the packages and the rtl), and then run it from the debugger. If I then make a change to the code and try to recompile and run the app, the compile appears to go ok, but the app crashes when it tries to start. If I close C++Builder and reopen it, then force it to rebuild either by doing a rebuild all, or making a minor change it compiles and runs fine. This is the case every time. I have tried in the past to switch to dynamically linking the rtl and that "appeared" to make the problem go away but I am not sure if that is a solid assumption. Has anyone seen this behaviour, and does anyone know how to resolve it. It is getting tiresome to have to restart the IDE all the time.
Edit:
The crash happens before any of my code. Here is the call stack:
007d17b3; __delayLoadHelper2
007d7efa; __imageBase
007d308b; __wstartup
btw: there are no delay load dlls in this project.
According to the Embarcadero Forums, Try disabling "Incremental Linking".
