The type or namespace name 'Slimsy' could not be found
I'm using:
Umbraco 7.13.2
Slimsy 2.0.0
framework 4.5.2
HtmlAgilityPack 1.11.15.0
I have formated my PC, installed Visual Studio Community 2019 and on top of that the plugin Web Compiler 1.12.394. But starting up my website suddenly failed.
Compilation Error

Compiler Error Message: CS0246: The type or namespace name 'Slimsy' could not be found (are you missing a using directive or an assembly reference?)
Source Error:

Just taking a chance here: Could it perhaps be caching in the Temp files from the above source file?
I found a solution and I can't really explain why or how it worked.
I ended up uninstalling Slimsy from the Umbraco backend and remove the namespace under Views/web.config.
Upon removing the plugin I ended up with a bunch of errors including web.optimization not working so I reinstalled that.
I also downloaded Slimsy 2 from the official package site (https://our.umbraco.com/packages/website-utilities/slimsy/) - I choosed Version 2 in the bottom.
When Slimsy was reinstalled it started working!
I think something went wrong when I reinstalled Windows and Visual studio because I simply copy-pasted the entire site to the new harddrive and started Visual Studio up.
Anyway it works like a charm now! Thanks for still providing suppot for Slimsy, it's a great plugin!

Upon researching the subject I found a ticket which had lots of informations but unfortunately, nothing that helped me (https://our.umbraco.com/packages/website-utilities/slimsy/slimsy-feedback/61805-Error-during-install-of-Slimsy-114)
My HtmlAgilityPack in web.config looks like:
The entire error log I get is:
Hey, sounds like you are missing the namespace in the views/web.config, here's an example https://github.com/Jeavon/Slimsy/blob/develop/TestSite/Views/Web.config#L27
Hey Jeavon,
Thank you for the extremly quick response!
I took a look in the views/web.config and found that Slimsy is present:
I logged into the backend to rebuild models but that didn't help either.
I have to admit I'm kind of lost. Everything my experience and imagination allows me to do, I've tried.

Strange, could you please post the code you have in this view?
If I remove everything in frontpage.cshml expect for:
I still get the error.
