Visual Studio 2012 crashes every time I try to deb

Question

Every time I try to debug one of my apps I get the below error message. Anyone have any ideas? I tried running Visual Studio in safe mode but I get the same thing. I also tried to repair the install and completely reinstall it with no luck :(. The full Problem Signature is this:

Answer 1

Since it had to do something with the debugging-environment of vs, I found a solution here:

http://social.msdn.microsoft.com/Forums/en-US/vssetup/thread/0376db8f-4761-4ae5-9af2-98c53216318a#VS_IDE_unexpected_problems

It says at a) to reset the local user settings for the IDE using the command "devenv /ResetSettings" (in command prompt - the devenv.exe is located in VS-Install-Path\Common7\IDE) to eliminate the related potential settings problem. All customizations to the VS settings get resetted - this worked for me - no uninstallation necessary.

Answer 2

This one worked for me. I ran the Installer again, selected Modify, and then un-selected Microsoft Web developer tools. I never used those tools, so I have no solution for people who does.

Answer 3

The issue is with web essentials, open VS 2012 Tools - Extensions and Updates - Uninstall web essentials

You can reinstall it if you want, seems to work fine

Thanks,

Answer 4

Just delete all the *.map files and all should be fine.
