VS2008 Crashes With "Fatal Execution Engine Error"
Has anybody found a fix for Visual Studio crashing with this error (eventlog)?
.NET Runtime version 2.0.50727.3082 - Fatal Execution Engine Error (7A2E1132) (0)
It does this when I start debugging with a problem in the xaml. Visual Studio will then silently disappear.
I've looked at SO and MS Connect but haven't found a fix or workaround. I often read that you should disable all addins but I don't have any.
EDIT: Yes, I have SP1 and the following fixes installed:
Version 9.0.30729.1 SP

Answer
Thanks to Paul I found a very strange workaround (I verified it a few times)
- open the solution
- unload the project (context menu)
- edit the csproj (context menu), don't make any changes
- reload the project (contect menu)
If I do that before I start the debugger VS will not crash.
