WINDOWS.H already included error

If you open the .aspx file and switch between design view and html view and back it will prompt VS to check the controls and add any that are missing to the designer file.

In VS2013-15 there is a Convert to Web Application command under the Project menu. Prior to VS2013 this option was available in the right-click context menu for as(c/p)x files. When this is done you should see that you now have a *.Designer.cs file available and your controls within the Design HTML will be available for your control.

PS: This should not be done in debug mode, as not everything is "recompiled" when debugging.

Some people have also reported success by (making a backup copy of your .designer.cs file and then) deleting the .designer.cs file. Re-create an empty file with the same name.

There are many comments to this answer that add tips on how best to re-create the designer.cs file.

Found on MSDN:

Yes this is a known issue that occurs to some people. Look carefully in your LIB path. Right after ATLMFC, V, SDK -> \vc98\lib. Delete this entry (and the one that follows). If the LIB is a user variable then you'll need to restart VS or perhaps log off and back on. If it is a system variable then you'll have to reboot. Your error should then go away.
