SP 2010: Workflow - Form Cannot be Submitted Because of an Error

Had an issue at a customer that had me stumped and after troubleshooting it by replacing my Office installation to 64 bit (to no avail), trying to remove a KB article that I didn't have installed to begin with (KB2553322), and searching through Google's not so helpful search, I finally found the answer.

Background: The customer had custom workflows made in SharePoint Designer. After the most recent Service Pack update for SharePoint, the CC field started showing an error (Form cannot be submitted because of an error). Helpful...

Here is how I resolved it:

1) In SharePoint Designer, go to All Files.
2) For local workflows, go to Workflows > and the name of the workflow; for global workflows, go to _catalogs > wfpub > and the name of the workflow.
3) Open the workflows .xoml.wconfig.xml file.
4) Click the Edit File link.
5) Search for the section cc xsi:nil .
6) Delete xsi:nil="true" after the cc.
            It should look like when you are done.
7) Save the file.

I hope this saves someone time.
