You probably need to add the namespace    lt Window x Class  UserControlTest Window1      xmlns  http   schemas microsoft com winfx 2006 xaml presentation      xmlns x  http   schemas microsoft com winfx 2006 xaml      xmlns local  clr-namespace UserControlTest      Title  User Control Test  Height  300  Width  300  gt       lt local UserControl1   gt   lt  Window gt

You need to add a reference inside the window tag  Something like   xmlns controls  clr-namespace YourCustomNamespace Controls assembly YourAssemblyName     When you add xmlns controls   intellisense should kick in to make this bit easier   Then you can add the control with    lt controls CustomControlClassName         gt

Make sure there is an namespace definition  xmlns  for the namespace your control belong to    xmlns myControls  clr-namespace YourCustomNamespace Controls assembly YourAssemblyName       lt myControls thecontrol  gt
