Extra Issue:

When having above warning you cannot do debug on your MVC project's View files
In other words cannot put brake points

Solution :

1. Go to your MVC Web project ---> Select Properties

2. Then click Build Events Tab

3. After that go to Post-build event command line and type below Text there

cd $(TargetDir)

del msshrtmi.dll
