Visual Studio crash at start-up

Tags:

My Visual Studio began crashing at start-up. In my search for finding a remedy, I found these two suggestions, but neither worked for me:

  • Launching Visual Studio while running in safe mode, and
  • Running repair on Visual Studio.

However, I found that if I logged into a different Windows account, Visual Studio was able to run from that account without crashing.

Here is an error code that that I observed in the crash report:

LCID: 1033

Can anyone provide a solution for returning my Visual Studio to working order?

Why does Visual Studio keep crashing?

If you experience crashes of Visual Studio, typically when working with a very large solution, your IDE might be out of virtual memory. Typical indicators of the problem include a "one or more errors occurred" message, "the process appears to be deadlocked" message, and OutOfMemory exception in a crash dump.

Why does my computer keep crashing on startup?

If we're talking about the basic reasons, one cause for this is a bad power supply. In this case, you may want to check if everything is plugged in correctly and securely. Overheating is another issue that may cause this problem. If we go deep into the cause, we may want to look into the hard disk and the motherboard.

For me it turned out to be the plugin that GitExtensions installed into Visual Studio 2013.

-- UPDATE: try this before uninstalling GitExtensions

@Enceradeira proposed in the comments to uncheck the Show current branch in Visual Studio option. In GitExtensions, you get there via Tools -> Settings -> Appearance:

-- END OF UPDATE

After uninstalling GitExtensions and reinstalling it with all VS plugin unselected my VS runs smoothly again.

I even put together a blog post about this issue because it bugged me so much.
