Step by Step Scenario
  1. Run analysis.
  2. In the logs,you will find the error.
Action Plan

All invalid instance id #0 are related to compact framework projects (*.csdproj) and vbdproj.

Reason for the error : .NET Analyzer doesn't launch correct version of .NET extractor.

Csdproj are targeting framework 1.1.

Compact mscorlib assembly (which is delivered with csdproj) could not be opened by .NET extractor

  1. Exclude from your analysis all csdproj and vbdproj, no error will occur.
