Hello. I got a very strange problem.
I installed a fresh version of Windows 10 and latest available Visual Studio (16.1.3).
If I install VA version 2333 Visual Studio immediately crash after project opening without error message. Even with new empty project.
So i tried different versions of VA and latest that don't crash my VS is 2302.
I'm sure that problem is on my side but couldn't figure it out. Can you help me somehow?

It is possible there is a problem with your default Visual Studio profile. To test this idea can you please close all instances of the IDE, and then run the command:

"C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Visual Studio\2019\Professional\Common7\IDE\devenv.exe" /RootSuffix VATest

if you are not using the Professional version of VS2019 please adjust the path to point at the version you are using. This will create and load a new, default profile, without VA installed, so you will be asked which settings you want to use.

Once this has loaded can you please try installing VA via the dialog:

IDE Extensions menu -> Manage Extensions

where you can search online for Visual Assist and install it for this test profile.

After a restart do you still see the crash?

Not what I was hoping for. Can you please run the "Visual Studio Installer", and for the Visual Studio 2019 entry use the More button to Repair your install. Does this make any difference?

Also, a random thought, have you rebooted your system since first seeing the crash? I am just wondering about something left running in the background.

If this doesn't help, next step is a mini dump, to try and get a sense of what is going on here.

Solved. I have uninstalled Visual Studio and deleted "Visual Studio" folder inside of "AppData/Local/Microsoft" directory. Then reinstall visual studio and install VA from the extension manager. And it works.

Thank you for the update. I am sorry you had so many problems getting this working, but hopefully everything is now working correctly, and as you want now.
