Sounds like you need to repair or re-install Visual Studio...

You could try going to the folder that devenv.exe is in, open a command window, and run devenv /safemode. This disable all extensions. If it works, then one or more extensions are crashing your installed Visual studio.

Solution 1

Search for "Microsoft.VisualStudio.Dialogs.DialogInitializationException":
not able to open new project in visual studio 2015 - Stack Overflow[^]
visual studio cannot open new project - Stack Overflow[^]

According to the above results executing this on a command prompt should fix it:

devenv.exe /resetuserdata

The links contain also other tips / solutions and there are more search results which contain even more.

You can not expect more help here because your system has problems which can't be reproduced by anyone. The only solution is searching the net for other's that had similar problems and trying what helped them.

As a final solution all you can do is uninstalling all VS versions completely and install again.

I run into something similar whenever I switch my laptop from docked to undocked or back.

Close Visual Studio. Use Task Manager to kill it if you can't close it normally.

Clear the Visual Studio Component Cache by going into %LOCALAPPDATA%\Microsoft\VisualStudio\version\ComponentModelCache and delete everything in there.

Relaunch Visual Studio and try again.
