VS2012 keeps crashing several times a day. I, finally, captured a crash dump and it seems that crash is an access violation inside VA_X.dll. I have tried already cleared the cache and rebuild the symbols.
Crash dump stack trace:

I installed version 1917 this mornings, and no crashes the whole day. That has never happened before, so I think the problem is fixed. Thanks |

It seems that after splitting the editor window into two, then the crash happens after some operations. |

The conversation is being continued as correspondence, we're looking into this issue. |

I'm hitting the same crash.
It looks like it happens whenever Visual Studio loses window focus.
Disabling VA in the extension manager does fix the issue...
I've sent in a minidump through the support link and have mentioned this thread. |

Does it happen when you disable Visual Assist X temporarily by VAssistX -> Enable/Disable Visual Assist X?
If so, can you please save out a mini dump file? (with enabled Visual Assist)
You can read more about how to do this here: http://docs.wholetomato.com?W303
Please send the file in using the following form:

OMG,my VS2012 often crashes too. |

Is this with VA disabled via extension manager? Note that you need to restart Visual Studio after that, to disable Visual Assist.
You mentioned in your previous post that "Disabling VA did not help as you suggested." If disabling VA via extension manager doesn't help it suggests that Visual Assist is not the culprit. |

I spoke too soon. The crashes are back... |

Thank you for the update, it is a little surprising and concerning that the crash was triggered by your settings, I wonder if somehow one of the settings had become corrupted. Good to know that this has now been fixed, and that VA is proving so useful to you  |

Thanks. Resetting all the settings seems to have worked (no crashes for 24hrs). Disabling VA did not help as you suggested. It reminded me, however, that coding without VA is an ordeal... |

We have the dump file, thank you. This crash does not appear to be caused by VA. VA is in the call stack since we were loaded and hooked into the IDE, but we weren't doing anything here.
Can you please try disabling Visual Assist X in the IDE extension manager:
IDE Tools menu -> Extensions and Updates...
for a day or two, and see if this has any effect on these crashes?
If you are still seeing crashes can you try exporting your IDE settings, and then resetting them, to see if this helps? If this does not help you can then simply reimport your exported settings, to get back to how you had the IDE set up.
IDE tools menu -> Import and Export Settings -> Export selected environment settings
IDE tools menu -> Import and Export Settings -> Reset all settings

Thank you for this, hopefully this will offer some clues as to the problem.
In case we need any more dump files you might find it easier to use procdump and set it to save out a mini dump when the IDE terminates / crashes, which is explained here:
http://docs.wholetomato.com?W303
this will generate a mini dump, which is a lot smaller and easier to send us. |

No pattern at all. It just happens 2-3 time a day on different solutions (I normally keep 2-3 open solutions).
I am sending you the crash file (about 800M, so it will take a while).
The only other extension I have is 'Code alignment' by Chris McGrath. |

Clearly this should not be happening. Do you have any other IDE extensions installed?
IDE Tools menu -> Extensions and Updates...
On a clean install of VS2012 I have:
Microsoft Web Developer Tools
NuGet Package Manager
Visual Assist X
Visual Studio Extensions for Windows Library for JavaScr...
Have you seen any pattern to these crashes, any sign of a trigger?
Would it be possible to get a copy of the dump file you have saved out? If it is not to large, you can send it to us via the form:
http://www.wholetomato.com/support/contact.asp
including this thread ID or URL in the description, so we can match it up. |
