I'm running VS 2010 along with Expression Blend 4 beta. I created a MVVM Light project from the supplied templates and I get a System.IO.FileLoadException when I try to view the MainWindow.Xaml in VS 2010 designer window. The template already references System.Windows.Interactivity. Here are the details of the exception:
System.IO.FileLoadException

System.NotSupportedException An attempt was made to load an assembly from a network location which would have caused the assembly to be sandboxed in previous versions of the .NET Framework. This release of the .NET Framework does not enable CAS policy by default, so this load may be dangerous. If this load is not intended to sandbox the assembly, please enable the loadFromRemoteSources switch. See http://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?LinkId=155569 for more information.
Yes, the issue is that the zip files need to be unblocked before you install.
See http://www.galasoft.ch/mvvm/installing/manually/#unblock
After you unblock the zip file, you can install on top of the existing DLLs, they will be overwritten with the correct version.
Greetings, Laurent
If it still doesn't work and you have done what @LBugnion tells to do. Then it is propaly because you run the project from a network location. Try copy the project to a loval drive (could be your desktop). Now it shuold work :D
