VS2013: Error Loading Solution ('JavascriptWebExtensionsPackage did not load correctly')

Question

Visual Studio 2013 Professional just started throwing this error on me, in the middle of switching solutions. A full reboot of the computer didn\'t resolve it.

Answer 1

I had the same problem, All i did was went to Control Panel and ran a Repair on VS 2013. Waited for it to complete and restart my computer and it worked.

Answer 2

I had the same experience. Deleting %LocalAppData%\Microsoft\VisualStudio\14.0\ worked fine. I could not delete for permission reasons so had to delete from command line all files in 14.0.

Answer 3

So -- after posting this and adding that last screenshot (the No EditorOptionDefinition export... business) -- I decided to google on that phrase as well (the other key phrases brought me nothing).

It brought me to this page: No EditorOptionDefinition Export Found Error

Which actually fixed the problem.

In short:

1. Close Visual Studio
2. Open the %UserProfile%\AppData\Local\Microsoft\VisualStudio\<version>\ folder
3. Rename or delete the ComponentModelCache folder
4. Restart Visual Studio.

Answer 4

In my case above solution not work out but when I tried to delete everything from

%LocalAppData%\Microsoft\VisualStudio\14.0\

from above location then I restarted visual studio 2015 then it works fine.

Hope anyone having this issue may resolve deleting everything from 14.0 directory

thank you
