I have one error when I want to debug my project (my project name is 'pp'
my error:

"error while trying to run project could not load file or assembly 'pp' or one of its dependencies. the module was expected to contain an assembly manifest "

How can I solve my problem ?

Also when I create new project and debug it I have this error.

Thank you very much kind gentlemen.

Are you able to build it successfully?
Are you able to run it without debugging?

c/p from below:

Usually, this is because you compiled your assembly with some external reference (using /r: on the csc command line or References in your IDE), and you didn't copy those referenced assemblies into the output folder.

Although actually in this case it is a manifest that is missing, apparently. Is there a 'pp.manifest' file that you failed to copy?

Not sure why you got 1-voted, but I countered it. Good link.

Probably because I couldn't read his freakin' mind and didn't have some divine link to his code base so I could point and go, "AH -HA!!!"

Lotsa tools on the site today...

Certainly its a good link.. who voted down. My 5 too.

Good link, but perhaps a little explanation of the most common cause would help the OP: Usually, this is because you compiled your assembly with some external reference (using /r: on the csc command line or References in your IDE), and you didn't copy those referenced assemblies into the output folder.

Although actually in this case it is a manifest that is missing, apparently. Is there a 'pp.manifest' file that you failed to copy?

Why don't you ask the OP that question?

Stream of consciousness, in forum mode, sorry :P. I started with 'good answer' and the rest sort of followed.
