Hi all,
I created an add-in project that had a bug in it.It generated an error when I tried to run it (when I opened another instance of Visual Studio). I deleted the "Addins" folder mentioned in the message and the dll for the add-in in an attempt to
start over. I've created another addin project and I get the following exception without adding any code beyond what the template generates:
Microsoft Visual Studio
The add-in 'Addin-02' failed to load or caused an exception.
Would you like to remove the add-in?
If you choose yes, the file it was loaded from; 'C:\Documents and settings\... \Addins\Addin-02',
will be renamed.
Error Message: <Unknown Error>
Error number: 80131522
This is coming from the standard code from the template, with no code of my own.
All I want to do is to wipe out what I've created so far and start from scratch without having to reinstall Visual Studio. This is costing me a lot of time and causing a lot of aggravation. I have no experience with add-ins and no idea as to what I'm doing.
I wouldn't even be messing with add-ins at all if Microsoft hadn't discontinued macros in VS2012. I was doing fine with macros. I have better things to do with my time than to fight with this issue.
I am PISSED OFF!!!
It seems that I'm not the only one:

I'm running VS 2010 on WinXP.
PLEASE HELP!!!
