WP8.1 SDK. Error adding controls

Just recently, WP8.1 Update was released. I decided to get the SDKfrom Here. Everything installed and it's all working but I'm getting errors when adding certain controls. Some of those controls are:

There could be more but, whenever i add these controls, Visual Studio Express 2013 either freezes for an insanely long time, or gives me the error: Syntax error found in XBF Generation

So can someone please clear things for me? How can I get these to work. Am I missing anything? Thanks!

Check if some resource you are using has any type different of x in your .xaml files. Like this:

    <System:String x:Key="AppName"> <!-- this could produce the error 
because the "System" namspace being called instead of "x" -->

Try to change things like the one above to this:

<x:String x:Key="AppName"> 

Maybe this can help you. I found this information here.

Hope it helps!

UPDATED:

Microsoft has released the Update 2 for Visual Studio 2013 and there is a similar issue that has been fixed.

You can try to update your Visual Studio 2013 and check if this issue has gone.

Here is the link to the update: Update 2 VS 2013
