csproj Reference without HintPath and without ReferencePath Assembly location

Viewed 2912

Usually a csproj file references have either a HintPath or a ReferencePath.

I am doing maintenance on a solution that i did not create. in one of the project files, a reference is not resolving. The Reference element opens and closes on itself. and both HintPath is missing and ReferencePath is missing.

<Reference Include="SomeCustomeNameSpace.EnvironmentSettings.Client, Version=4.0.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=16a2c5caeea1b130d, processorArchitecture=MSIL" />

is there a default location where this assembly might be found? or is it even valid to have a reference like this?
