XAML Designer can not find any files in my local namespace

I know this question has been asked multiple times, and I've gone through them all. Hopefully I didn't just miss something in the previous answers, but I'm stumped.

My application was working fine yesterday, but today I booted it up and now none of my file references, including ViewModels or DependencyProperties which I have defined in external files, can be found. I'm coding in VB (as you'll see), I've tried changing / adding Namespaces and nothing!

If someone has some insight into this issue I'm all ears!

Solution Structure

enter image description here

XAML

<Window
xmlns:l="clr-namespace:PrairieWestIceCreamWPF"
xmlns="http://schemas.microsoft.com/winfx/2006/xaml/presentation"
xmlns:x="http://schemas.microsoft.com/winfx/2006/xaml"    
x:Class="WeeklyOutlookView" Title="WeeklyOutlookView" Name="WeeklyOutlookView"    Height="463.5" Width="1280" l:WindowBehavior.WindowClosing="{Binding WindowClosingCommand}">


<Window.DataContext>
    <l:WeeklyOutlookViewModel />
</Window.DataContext>

Errors

The Name "WindowBehavior" does not exist in the namespace "clr-namespace:PrairieWestIceCreamWPF

The Name "WeeklyOutlookViewModel" does not exist in the namespace "clr-namespace:PrairieWestIceCreamWPF

Finally found the culprit!!

At my work, our desktops are hosted on a network share. I had brought two applications I was working on from home and dropped the application files temporarily on the desktop to make some quick minor changes. Turns out there is a bug in the WPF Designer where the application will not be able to resolve assembly references if the application is being run from a share. As soon as I moved it to my local D drive, everything work perfectly.
