Microsoft.CSharp reference not recognized

Question

I'm having a problem with MVC. The tricky thing is that the problem appeared when I installed Windows 8 . In Windows 7 I have never ecountered it. I created a new MVC 4 project in Visual Studio 2012 and all my views are messed up ( Viewbag, helpers and everything ). ( framework targeted is 4.5 )

Error message: One or more types required to compile a dynamic expression cannot be found. Are you missing a reference?

I have tried a lot of stuff. I have read this stackoverflow link, another stackoverflow link and another one ! Nothing works. I have also reinstalled VS2012.

Any ideas why that error message appears in every View?

So you are not able to build your solution??? ... have you tried re-registering the assemble in GAC?? — Dinesh, Jun 30 '13 at 16:30
@ DnshPly9 - Yes, but it didn't work :( ; @ saravanan - aren't they already installed in VS 2012? — Cosmin, Jun 30 '13 at 20:24

try to install VS2012 Update 3. While the Visual Studio is not running, remove all Bin and Obj folders. When VS losts in the references it often solves the problems.
