I have a WPF application running without any issues in my windows 8 OS development machine. But when i try to run the same in Windows 7 machine i am getting the error
System.InvalidOperationException: Specified element is already the logical child of another element. Disconnect it first.
The detailed error log is
[CDATA[Set property 'System.Windows.FrameworkElement.Style' threw an exception.
LoadBaml at offset 481 in file:line:column <filename unknown>:0:0

I have no idea which element XAML or code behind causing this issue. Any help to find out reason for this strange issue?
Finally able to find the reason for error I have a ToggleButton style in the application which is defined in App.xaml like this
<Style x:Key="ONStateLabelLib" TargetType="Label">
<Setter Property="Background" Value="#A1A1A1"></Setter>
<Setter Property="Foreground" Value="Black"></Setter>
<Setter Property="Margin" Value="0"></Setter>

</Style>
And i use the Toggle Button in 2 pages Page1.xaml and Page2.xaml like this
<ToggleButton Margin="5" Grid.Row="0"
ToolTip="{Binding Path=localResource.reader_tooltip_settings_fullscreen,Source={StaticResource DbookLanguageManagerDynamic}}" Grid.Column="1"
Name="btn_fullScreen" Click="btn_fullScreen_Clicked"
Style="{StaticResource ResourceKey=OnOffToggleStyleLib}" />
Application Loads Page1.xaml first and While Navigating to Page2.xaml i ma getting above exception .
Now can some one help to solve this?
