Metadata file not found - Data.Entity.Model

Question

Anyone having similar problem, while creating webservices?

Compiling transformation: Metadata file 'D:\Program Files\VS2013\Common7\Tools..\IDE\Microsoft.Data.Entity.Design.dll' could not be found D:\PROJEKTY\apki\ws2\WS\WS\DataModel.tt

I tried adding data model again, restarting VS, cleaning and building solution, creating new project, deleting and adding reference, installing the newest version. I think that any solution found on internet does not work for me.

Any suggestions? I think of pasting file into this directory, but can't think what may be there.

devenv /resetsetting

in VS 2013 command prompt and it worked. Did the same in my colleagues machine and it worked too. Not sure it will workbut wort a try
