Visual Studio 2012 error: Package 'Visual C++ package' failed to load


When I'm trying to open any solutions that worked fine before in Visual Studio 2012, the error "Package 'Visual C++ package' failed to load" keeps showing up. And the solution can't be opened.

I'm not sure what's wrong with my Visual Studio 2012 installation.


Solution

    1. click the TOOLS--->VISUAL STUDIO COMMAND PROMPT to open the command window
    2. input the command "devenv /Setup"
    3. open the visual studio 2012 again, it will works.
