Question

I updated Visual Studio 2013 to update 4 and subsequently could not run any projects. Attempting to run a project failed with error:
"The debugger resource DLL is out of date. if this problem persists, use 'Add or Remove Programs' in control panel to repair your Visual Studio installation."
I started Visual Studio as administrator and the error occurred both in debug and release modes.
I ran the repair tool twice without success. Rolling back the update resolved the problem.
I haven't been able to find any good information on how to resolve this issue. Has anyone else experienced this and know how to resolve it?

Hi RobertXY,
>>I just updated another workstation to update 4 and there are no problems on that machine.
Sometimes, if you installed some third-party tool/ software on your machine, it will impact the VS2013 Update 4. So I suggest you can try to check if you install some third-party tool/software on your machine.
In addition, I suggest you can try to un-install the VS2013 with Update 4 completely and then download the VS2013 Update 4 from Microsoft official and then check this issue again.

Or you can try to install a free VS2013 Community with Update 4 and then install it on your machine check this issue.

If the above suggestion still could not help you, I doubt that the issue maybe more related to your machine environment. So if possible, I suggest you can try to repair your OS and then check this issue again.

Hi RobertXY,
>>"The debugger resource DLL is out of date. if this problem persists, use 'Add or Remove Programs' in control panel to repair your Visual Studio installation."
Based on your issue, could you please tell me if you could not create and run an any new type projects after you install the VS2013 Update 4?
If yes, generally, I know that we can create any new type projects after installing the VS2013 Update 4. So I suggest you can try to create a simple new project from the VS2013 Update 4 safe mode check this issue.

In addition, if you install some third-party tool/ software on your machine, it will impact the VS IDE sometimes.
If you have any update message about your issue, please tell me so that we will further support it.

Yes the error was occurring with both new and existing projects.
I just updated another workstation to update 4 and there are no problems on that machine.

Can you give some examples of "third-party tool/software", what could be the cause of the problem?
Some Visual Studio extensions? Antivirus software or what?

I was having the same problem when i installed an extension of visual studio 2013, i noticed after installing that extension the language of my VS had change to spanish. i just change the language back to "English" instead of "Same as Microsoft Windows" in Tools, Options, International Settings, Language. Then i restart VS 2013 and that fix the problem to me, i hope it helps someone else...
