DLL Hell

Wikipedia suggests this is "a term for the complications that arise when working with dynamic link libraries (DLLs) used with Microsoft Windows operating systems" and what this has to do with is the act of having to go fishing online for a missing .dll file (that wasn't checked into source control) when you pull the code for someone else's Visual Studio solution and it doesn't work because the compiler can't find something.
