I configured now a new computer. Installed VS 2010 and all necessary component, got my running project on that new computer..

Compiling the project shows me that VS 2010 cannot find the reference “Microsoft.VisualStudio.QualityTools.UnitTestFramework”.

This assembly is located in
Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Visual Studio 10.0\Common7\IDE\PublicAssemblies

But VS is not able to find it.

The used project is OK. It can be compiled on my old machine!

Edit:
The error while compiling:
error CS0234: The type or namespace name ‘VisualStudio’ does not exist in the namespace ‘Microsoft’ (are you missing an assembly reference?)

C:\Windows\Microsoft.NET\Framework\v4.0.30319\Microsoft.Common.targets(1360,9): warning MSB3245: Could not resolve this reference. Could not locate the assembly “Microsoft.VisualStudio.QualityTools.UnitTestFramework, Version=9.0.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=b03f5f7f11d50a3a, processorArchitecture=MSIL”. Check to make sure the assembly exists on disk. If this reference is required by your code, you may get compilation errors.

    Forget to mark this as solved:
    What I did:

    Uninstalled VS 2008 and VS2010 including all updates – Installed VS2008 full, VS2010 full Now it works! The cause is still unknown!
