WorkItemTypeDeniedOrNotExistException

Configuring a new laptop comes with a lot of work. You have to install all the software you are used to, apply all the updates, change the configuration and so on. So after installing Visual Studio 2008, I continued with the SP1 upgrade.  But after the installation was done, I got the following error when I tried to open a work item in Team Explorer:

Could not load type 'Microsoft.TeamFoundation.WorkItemTracking.Client.WorkItemTypeDeniedOrNotExistException' from assembly 'Microsoft.TeamFoundation.WorkItemTracking.Client, Version=9.0.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=b03f5f7f11d50a3a'.

As the TFS administrator inside my organization, I had seen this error mentioned before, so I knew how to solve it.

Running the VS2008 SP1 install for a second time will patch Team Explorer up to the required level.

Help! I accidently enabled HSTS–on localhost

I ran into an issue after accidently enabling HSTS for a website on localhost. This was not an issue for the original website that was running in IIS and had a certificate configured. But when I tried to run an Angular app a little bit later on http://localhost:4200 the browser redirected me immediately to https://localhost . Whoops! That was not what I wanted in this case. To fix it, you need to go the network settings of your browser, there are available at: chrome://net-internals/#hsts edge://net-internals/#hsts brave://net-internals/#hsts Enter ‘localhost’ in the domain textbox under the Delete domain security policies section and hit Delete . That should do the trick…
