I had the issue on my notebook that visual studio would freeze when I open a solution who contains a UWP and two Xamarin Projects. Asp.net still works fine.
I thought maybe the installation is corrupt or there is an issue with Resharper. But I have the same issue now on another notebook who has a completly fresh installation and no Resharper installed so far.
I never had this with VS before Update 1. Any idea what might causing this?
EDIT: Turns out it was the Xamarin Plugin. After deinstall it, it works again..
This was solved with the latest update of the Xamarin VS plugin.

I work with Unity, and recently I came across some sort of bug with Visual Studio. For some reason one day the Script Editor stopped working.
When I first open it up through Unity, it would open as usual and seem fine, but after 5 seconds of interaction, Visual Studio would then freeze and crash without an error report. Following tries with the editor would just crash almost right away.
I did some research and found out that it was some sort of problem with Unity's MEF Cache, the Microsoft Documentation would ask me to do the following: Delete the following file: "%localappdata%\Microsoft\VisualStudio<version>\ComponentModelCache" and if the problem continues, I should run this line of code on VS' CMD as a administrator "devenv /setup".
I tried both methods with Visual Studio, but neither seemed to work, only to return to being fine for 5 seconds before freezing and crashing.
I have updated Visual Studio 2017 to the newer version and performed the same method, but the problem persists.
I would like to know if anyone have any solutions to my situation, if I should try reinstalling Visual Studio, try to reinstall Unity or just use another Script Editor.
edit: Just to inform, the version of Unity I was using was 2021.2.8f1. But I don't know if it matters since the bug didn't seem to depend on the Unity version.
I managed to fix the issue by installing Visual Studio 2022
I have a serious problem with creating cross-platform applications.
When I'm trying to create the project the following error displayed:
How to fix these issues?
I solved the problem,
The problem is with UWP project. This project is trying to restore packages from api.nuget.org but failed every time.
I removed this project from the solution and the entire solution is working perfectly now.
Note: UWP project can work separately, but it can't work with Android and iOS projects. I still don't know what the problem is, I reported this issue to Visual Studio report center.
But for now, I need only Android and iOS projects.
My visual Studio 2017 community keeps freezing and i get the error message not responding when i deploy a Provided hosted add in to SharePoint. I can run all other types of projects that i have tried without any problems. I have a newly installed windows with just a few programs on it. I can run a console application to my SharePoint online without any problems. So i guess SharePoint isn't the problem.
What i have tried:
Reinstall windows
Reinstall Visual Studio
Reinstall ISS
Update Visual Studio
Update windows
Disable some debug options (Read online that might help)
And some minor things
I appreciate any help/tips i can get everything is helpful at this point.
i had same problem and i figure out its firefox problem, so when i uninstall firefox, problem solved for me,
may be it help you as well.
Same issue for me, you need to change the default browser from "Start Action" to "Internet Explorer" in the Add-in project properties pane.
I don't know why but after upgrading Microsoft to the insider preview version. I know, it's always a bad idea to update anything but had to do it to get the new MR Headsets to work...
I downgraded again after visual studio was unable to create any app packages. And it still doesn't work.... tried to repair visual studio and still nothing. I know it's a VS issue because i can't even build older projects which always worked and which i haven't touched.
And now after reinstalling it tells me that the package is unavailable and that i should install windows10 sdk even tho i installed it 100x already.
Edit: I'm also constantly getting this error:
And even after installing the file suggested below nothing works.
I don't get my Microsoft keeps building shit that never works..
Sounds like you should try the last resort:

Use the InstallCleanup.exe to remove all things
There are known issues with using visual studio 2017, when doing hololens development, my stable environment is visual studio 2015 Update 3.0.0 and Unity 5.5 0f1. These I know will work together. Also, if you are trying to use the hololens toolkit, you will also have issues with the new versions of Visual Studio. So you will want to take the Dev branch and not master.
I recently had to wipe my entire PC due to getting too many Blue Screens, so after that I went through the process of reinstalling all my software development tools, in this case Visual Studio Community 2015 and Xamarin for Android.
It went smoothly enough but I now have a new problem, when I debug the Project I am working on, breakpoints never get hit. I tried cleaning the solution, restarting the PC/Android tablet, reinstalling Xamarin and changing devices, but my breakpoints never get hit when I'm debugging my app, and its pretty annoying to say the least.
Before I did the hard reset on my PC, everything worked perfectly.
I would switch to Xamarin Studio but it seems since Microsoft took over Xamarin they have dropped the Windows version of Xamarin studio, so I am now stuck with Visual Studio with a broken debugger.
I think this is a Xamarin related issue because when I use Visual Studio to work on web applications, the debugger works as expected.
Is there anyone who has the latest version of Xamarin for Visual Studio experienced the same problem? and if so, what did you do to get the debugger working again?
thank you, I'll be happy to provide technical/build information if you need it.
