Vs2010 Cannot Load Msdia100. Dll While Debugging

While I try to debug a program in VS2010 I get the following message:

I have tried to:

  • restart the computer
  • move all files to a new sulotion
  • debug a different program
  • debug this program on a different computer

the first two mattered nothing, the lost two worked.
what's wrong with my computer and how do I fix it?

I'm using VS2010 pro, running on win7.
I uploaded the project I tried debugging to google drive, if any one wants to see it.

I started getting this error today. I checked multiple applications, and all failed. Visual Studio itself was crashing. The application was working 2 days ago. I had to copy msdia100.dll from my laptop and the run regsvr32 as described above. When I compared the files, they had the same time stamp and the same size, but the contents were completely different. No idea how the change happened. Everything appears to be working after replacing the DLL.
