One final question what version of visual studio are you running (Help>>About Microsoft Visual Studio)? I am currently on Visual Studio 2019 version 16.1.4

I am not able to reproduce this one my environment, but I am noticing a couple of thing.

This is an intellisense error not actually a run-time issue. Correct me if I am wrong, but I suspect your app should launch and work correctly.

I also have ReSharper installed which I know affects the intellisense. Are you running any tools like this?

I am on visual studio 2017 no resharper. Program debugs and runs, but as @Awsmolak wrote, I am having same issues “Cannot find resource named …” I am using <ResourceDictionary Source="pack://application:,,,/MaterialDesignThemes.Wpf;component/Themes/MaterialDesignTheme.Light.xaml" /> <ResourceDictionary Source="pack://application:,,,/MaterialDesignThemes.Wpf;component/Themes/MaterialDesignTheme.Defaults.xaml" /> <ResourceDictionary Source="pack://application:,,,/MaterialDesignColors;component/Themes/Recommended/Primary/MaterialDesignColor.Blue.xaml" /> <ResourceDictionary Source="pack://application:,,,/MaterialDesignColors;component/Themes/Recommended/Accent/MaterialDesignColor.Teal.xaml" /> for now, till it gets fixed

@Taschenbuch ah I see the problem I forgot to move this issue into the 3.0.0 milestone. The fix for this is going out in the next release. You can also download the preview 3.0.0 NuGet packages if you need the fix right away.
