Description

#### Issue details
MethodNotFoundExceptions occur when I tried to open design pages of HUD and FlightData.

I tried [several ways](https://stackoverflow.com/q/78125124/20393761) to solve this, but I still couldn't figure out the reason.

After I updated the version of VS at the laptop that used to work, I finally found out the main reason that causes this situation.

The problem occurred after I updated Visual Studio. The design pages worked fine when I used version 17.8.4 until I updated it to version 17.9.2.

It's either already a potential issue of MP and got exposed due to the bug fix of IDE or it's just the IDE's problem. I can't be certain.

Since I use the community version, there's no way for me to re-install the old version. Has anyone met this issue before? Is there any workaround?

Research direction

Reproduce the MethodNotFoundExceptions by opening the HUD and FlightData design pages in Visual Studio 17.9.2, then compare the behavior with Visual Studio 17.8.4 if available. Trace the reported design-time failure and confirm a fix or documented workaround by verifying that both design pages open successfully.
