'ViewBag' It may be inaccessible due to its protection level - asp.net-mvc-5

MVC 5 vb web application
I created a entityFramework migrations where I have a class library for data entities and combined it with the AspNet Identity within the web application. No error so far. I created a IndentityDB that has the defaultConnection and updated the AccountController to point to the connection
(New UserStore(Of ApplicationUser)(New IndentityDB())))
seems to be right with no error on the build except for a enum issue in the classlibrary that I will fix later but I get a error:
'ViewBag' is not declared. It may be inaccessible due to its protection level.
A first chance exception of type 'System.InvalidOperationException'

This error happens when I try to login on the home page and any other Authorized Controller

VS2019-project is unloaded, csproj <UseIISExpress> was changed somehow,

I had a problem and dell premium support ran some kind of upgrade or re-install of windows 10 while keeping my files in tack.
The next day, I was working on my MVC project in VS and it loaded ok and debugging got my application to the login page, which means it had to successfully read the Entity Framework Context with LINQ type stuff, and all of a sudden my project started having these errors about reading Entity Framework Context, but only in one method.
Then things got worse, I first tried to close VS and reopen VS. But this time, it said my project had been unloaded. I tried the option to reload the project, but now I was getting errors about "the operation could not be completed. the system cannot find the path specified" and errors having to do with not being able to find the current file highlighted at the top of the VS editor.
After looking up the unload issues in forums, I saw a suggestion to call up my Mbsa.csproj and change to false and to True. Then my project loaded ok - but why did this change? it was always false in my previous backups.
Then , when trying to run my project with VS Debugging, I started getting connection messages like these:
1 - C:\MBSSys\Mbsa\Mbsa 2020\Mbsa.csproj : error : The Web Application Project Mbsa is configured to use IIS. The Web server 'http://localhost:51700/' could not be found.
2 -The connection to 'localhost' failed.

This problem can occur when the specified portion of the IIS configuration file is locked at a higher configuration level.
Resolution for HResult code 0x80070021
To resolve this problem, unlock the specified section, or do not use it at that level. For more information on configuration locking, see How to Use Locking in IIS 7.0 Configuration.
So I am wondering if anyone else has faced this particular issue,
or, if anyone can give me any appreciated advice here.
Thanks for your time and advice. If you need more clues, just ask.
The seems to happen after installing KB4568831.
https://superuser.com/questions/1575295/windows-updates-kb4568831-kb4562899-break-all-net-applications-hosted-in-iis
I could get rid of the 500.19 errors by manually re-installing some optional windows features that the update apparently removes (see below), but after I got auth-related errors instead. In the end I rolled back KB4568831 to resolve the issue for the time being. Hopefully this gets fixed soon.

Entity Framework MetadataWorkspace error

How to re-enable Orchard CMS features without Dashboard or command line

I just disabled the Comments feature on my Orchard installation, not realising it was a dependency of Disqus, and now the entire site including admin dashboard fails with this error:
None of the constructors found with policy 'Orchard.Environment.AutofacUtil.DynamicProxy2.ConstructorFinderWrapper' on type 'Disqus.Comments.Services.DisqusCommentUpdateService' can be invoked with the available services and parameters: Constructor 'Void .ctor(Orchard.IOrchardServices, Disqus.Comments.Services.IDisqusMappingService, Orchard.Comments.Services.ICommentService)' parameter resolution failed at parameter 'Orchard.Comments.Services.ICommentService commentService'.
Description: An unhandled exception occurred during the execution of the current web request. Please review the stack trace for more information about the error and where it originated in the code.
Exception Details: Autofac.Core.DependencyResolutionException: None of the constructors found with policy 'Orchard.Environment.AutofacUtil.DynamicProxy2.ConstructorFinderWrapper' on type 'Disqus.Comments.Services.DisqusCommentUpdateService' can be invoked with the available services and parameters: Constructor 'Void .ctor(Orchard.IOrchardServices, Disqus.Comments.Services.IDisqusMappingService, Orchard.Comments.Services.ICommentService)' parameter resolution failed at parameter 'Orchard.Comments.Services.ICommentService commentService'.
The Orchard installation is running on a web host and I do not have access to the command line there. I have FTP access, and access to the MS SQL database. Is there any way I can re-enable the Comments feature without access to the command line or web admin interface?
There is a file, /orchard.web/app_data/cache.dat, which is an xml containing a list of which features are enabled.
The documentation warns that modifying it may have unpredictable results, so be warned: http://docs.orchardproject.net/Documentation/Developer-FAQ#What'sinApp_Data?
There is a table in the database called Settings_ShellFeatureStateRecord, which stores the state for each module's feature. I re-enabled Orchard.Comments on my local installation (using SQL Server Compact Edition) with the following SQL:
update Settings_ShellFeatureStateRecord
set InstallState = 'Up',
EnableState = 'Up'
where Name = 'Orchard.Comments'
Good luck!

XBAP, Fulltrust application security / trust exception

There are alot of settings in all the versions of IE & windows, that may cause problems for users attempting to run xbap applications, particulary in fulltrust mode.
I seem to have gathered a long list of such cases during the last year.
However I'm pussled by this one exception, which occurs on a user on one of my systems, and was hoping that maybe someone here could point me in the right direction.
This application runs on all the used version of windows, and IE6 -> IE9, without problems so there is nothing wrong with the deployment/xbap it self.
The user gets the errorlog / stacktrace below. Have anyone of you encountered this vague trace, and know what the issue might be? This user is running IE8 & W7.
The user have the proper certificates installed in trusted root authorities & trusted publishers. The site in question has been added to list of trusted sites. Xbap has been enabled in IE.
URLs, publickeys, appname etc have been scrambeled.
Brgds,
Stian

I should have answered this one when I "solved" the issue.
In the case above there was an issue with the client computer, a change of disk, re-install of OS etc solved the trick.
What the issue was, remains a mystery ;)

classic .net app pool + iis 7.5 + compression modules

I have windows 2008 r2 installed on my server, so iis 7.5 is.
I am not able run any of the class.net applications on iis. one of the compression modules throws exception.
Detailed Error Information
Module DynamicCompressionModule
Notification SendResponse
Handler StaticFile
Error Code 0x8007007e
Requested URL http://localhost:8081/a.html

i tried diferent logon methods, different sites even static html pages are not served. Error never changes.
sorry for poor english.
A quick bit of searching found this: http://forums.iis.net/t/1149768.aspx. Are you running a 64bit server? If so, is it possible you are (potentially inadvertently) mixing 32bit and 64bit code in the same application pool?
More information with slightly more detailed steps to resolve the problem found here: http://blogs.msdn.com/webtopics/archive/2010/03/08/troubleshooting-http-500-19-errors-in-iis-7.aspx (search down for error code 0x8007007e)
Error Message:
HTTP Error 500.19 - Internal Server
Error The requested page cannot be
accessed because the related
configuration data for the page is
invalid. Module
DynamicCompressionModule Notification
SendResponse Handler StaticFile
Error Code 0x8007007e Requested URL
http://localhost:80/ Physical Path
C:\inetpub\wwwroot Logon Method
Anonymous Logon User Anonymous
Reason:
Error Code 0x8007007e is:
ERROR_MOD_NOT_FOUND - The specified
module could not be found.
This problem occurs because the
ApplicationHost.config file or the
Web.config file references a module
that is invalid or that does not
exist. To resolve this problem: In the
ApplicationHost.config file or in the
Web.config file, locate the module
reference or the DLL reference that is
invalid, and then fix the reference.
To determine which module reference is
incorrect, enable Failed Request
Tracing, and then reproduce the
problem.
For above specific error (mentioned in
this example),
DynamicCompressionModule module is
causing the trouble. This is because
of the XPress compression scheme
module (suscomp.dll) which gets
installed with WSUS. Since Compression
schemes are defined globally and try
to load in every application Pool, it
will result in this error when 64bit
version of suscomp.dll attempts to
load in an application pool which is
running in 32bit mode.
This module entry looks like:
Hence to get rid of this problem:
Ø Remove/Disable the XPress
compression scheme from the
configuration using the command below:
%windir%\system32\inetsrv\appcmd.exe
set config
-section:system.webServer/httpCompression
/-[name='xpress']
OR
Ø Add an attribute of "precondition=
"64bitness" for this module entry so
that it loads only in 64bit
application pools
Refer this blog for more details on
Preconditions in IIS7
OR
Ø Use a 32bit version of suscomp.dll
