Visual Studio 2012 crashes when trying to open a WPF project

Whenever I open a WPF project, Visual Studio crashes. I start a second instance and attach the process to the first instance and I receive the following error once the project is "opened":

An unhandled exception of type 'System.MissingFieldException' occurred in Microsoft.VisualStudio.Progression.LanguageService.CSharp.dll

Additional information: Field not found: 'Microsoft.VisualStudio.Progression.Actions.GetNodeAtSourcePosition'.

I'm not entirely sure what to do. I have reinstalled Visual Studio once before and the error still occurs. Any help on this problem would be wonderful!

Solution

  • Had the same problem when creating a new project with VS2012. Applying VS2012 Update 1 did the trick for me.
