I installed Visual Studio 2012 and at a later date Update 2. After installing Update 2, when I load any project, I get the following error:
---------------------------
Microsoft Visual Studio
---------------------------
The 'ProviderPackage' package did not load correctly.The problem may have been caused by a configuration change or by the installation of another extension. You can get more information by examining the file 'C:\Users\username\AppData\Roaming\Microsoft\VisualStudio\11.0\ActivityLog.xml'.

Yes No

After locating the ActivityLog.xml
, I see the following set of errors:

My list:

In order to fix the issue one needs to clear the Visual Studio cache under:
%LOCALAPPDATA%\Microsoft\VisualStudio\11.0\ComponentModelCache
Thanks go to blog post SetSite failed for package [Microsoft.VisualStudio.Editor.Implementation.EditorPackage].
Usually this can be fixed by clearing the Visual Studio cache under:
Visual Studio 2012: %LOCALAPPDATA%\Microsoft\VisualStudio\11.0\ComponentModelCache
Visual Studio 2013: %LOCALAPPDATA%\Microsoft\VisualStudio\12.0\ComponentModelCache
I fixed this by uninstalling or removing:
Microsoft SQL Server Data Tools - enu (14.0.50325.0)
I hope this helps :)
