I installed Visual Studio 2012 and at a later date Update 2. After installing Update 2, when I load any project, I get the following error:
---------------------------
Microsoft Visual Studio
---------------------------
The 'ProviderPackage' package did not load correctly.
The problem may have been caused by a configuration change or by the installation of another extension. You can get more information by examining the file 'C:\Users\username\AppData\Roaming\Microsoft\VisualStudio\11.0\ActivityLog.xml'.

Yes No

Type devenv /setup.
Restart Visual Studio.

This is Aaron's (Aaron Reed) answer from above, just copied as an answer instead of part of the question:
Fixed it... Fixed it... Fixed it...
Opened Programs and Features (run: appwiz.cpl)
Sorted list of installed apps by: Install Date
Filtered list by adding "SQL" to the upper right search filter
List item
I installed VS2012 on 4/1/13, so I went through each listed SQL item in the list, and right click --> Repair
From there I ran VS2012 and opened the target Solution file without issue.
My list:
Microsoft SQL Server 2012 Data-Tier App Framework
Microsoft SQL Server Data Tools - enu (11.1.20627.00)
Microsoft SQL Server 2012 Management Objects (x64)
Microsoft System CLR Types for SQL Server 2012 (x64)
Microsoft System CLR Types for SQL Server 2012

Microsoft SQL Server Compact 4.0 SP1 x64 ENU
Microsoft SQL Server 2012 T-SQL Language Service
Microsoft SQL Server 2012 Native Client
Microsoft SQL Server 2012 Data-Tier App Framework
Microsoft SQL Server 2012 Express LocalDB
Microsoft SQL Server 2012 Transact-SQL SpriptDom
This worked for me -
In order to fix the issue one needs to clear the Visual Studio cache under:
%LOCALAPPDATA%\Microsoft\VisualStudio\11.0\ComponentModelCache
Thanks go to blog post SetSite failed for package [Microsoft.VisualStudio.Editor.Implementation.EditorPackage].
Usually this can be fixed by clearing the Visual Studio cache under:
Visual Studio 2012: %LOCALAPPDATA%\Microsoft\VisualStudio\11.0\ComponentModelCache
Visual Studio 2013: %LOCALAPPDATA%\Microsoft\VisualStudio\12.0\ComponentModelCache
I fixed this by uninstalling or removing:
Microsoft SQL Server Data Tools - enu (14.0.50325.0)
I hope this helps :)
Worked for me.
Window7 SP1 + VS 2013
Open a Developer Command Propmpt for VS 2012 (as administrator).
Run devenv /setup.
An even quicker fix is to simply repair the Microsoft SQL Server in the list. That fixed my problem.
Uninstalling/Repairing SQL Server Data tools is the only thing which worked for me, thanks to wayne.blackmon comment.
Picture below
For me the ActivityLog.xml stated
<errorinfo>Access to the path 'C:\Users\Klas\Documents\Visual Studio
2015\ArchitectureExplorer' is denied.</errorinfo>
When I examined this folder I realized that the entire folder structure here
C:\Users\Klas\Documents\Visual Studio 2015
had permission set so that my user had no write permissions. I added Full Control rights to my user for this folder and everything below.
After that, the message went away. Also, when I started Visual Studio it created lots of subfolders to this folder.
I had the same issue in Visual Studio 2013 for Windows 8.1.
The previous answers didn't work for me. I had to repair Visual Studio and then reboot my machine.
I was getting this error on Visual Studio start up:
the 'visual studio component model host package' did not load correctly...
After that bunch of other The '' package did not load correctly... error messages.
I realized I don't have enough free space on my C drive, where the Visual Studio were installed.
I opened up some space and restarted the Visual Studio, solved the problem.
Not sure if it has anything to do with the free space on disk though.
In my case the problem appeared after I installed Visual Studio 2015. From that point nor 2015, nor previous versions of Visual Studio would load.
The problem was the PATH environment variable exceeding the MAX length.
I shortened it to less than 2048 and restarted the machine. Visual Studio started loading, but with some errors still. Lastly run the devenv /setup, and all is back to normal.
I just had a similar error (on Windows 7. I installed Visual Studio 2015 Professional and then after that, several "...package did not load correctly" messages started showing up when I ran Visual Studio 2012).
What fixed my issue was to repair "Microsoft Studio Tools for Applications 2012".
Run "appwiz.cpl" (Control Panel → Programs → Uninstall a program
Right-click on "Microsoft Studio Tools for Applications 2012. Select "Change", then click "Repair".
After this, I can open up Visual Studio 2012 without those error messages.
I had a similar error. After I updated to VS2012.U2, the problem went away. TFS 2012 update 2 can't be removed without removing TFS. While I had an issue with upgrading from TFS2012.U1 to U2, I have found TFS2012.U2 to be worthwhile.
It was the problem with access rights to my %USERPROFILE% directory (because of the failure with the PC). Setting permissions to full access fixed it.
Another suggestion,
Run as admin, and restart the VS application.
Apply package update.
Reboot.
Hope this helps!
From MSDN forums:
Please open Windows Explorer, and navigate to <Visual Studio Installation Path>\Common7\IDE
Devenv.exe /SafeMode: Launches the IDE in safe mode loading minimal windows.
Devenv.exe /ResetSettings: Restores the IDE's default settings, optionally resets to the specified VSSettings file.
Devenv.exe /ResetAddin: Removes commands and command UI associated with the specified Add-in.
Devenv.exe /ResetSkipPkgs: Clears all SkipLoading tags added to VSPackages.
If still no help, I suggest you try repairing your Visual Studio installation or uninstall it and then reinstall it. If you want to reinstall it, I am afraid that you need a DVD or a fine Internet.
Doing the first three steps works for me.
I got "lucky" and restarted Visual Studio 2013 and it worked. I have had other errors in which deleting the temp cache items cleared it up.
Side note. While Visual Studio 2015 is not perfect as of yet, and NuGet has become less friendly to use IMO, if my computer is restarted by the company domain network administrators OR especially when there is a computer losing power with a brown-out of some loss of power Visual Studio 2013 becomes a bit a "fun" to fix while Visual Studio 2015 projects for months seem to just open just fine as if nothing happened when I login.
In my case, I solve this problem by removing the Read-only attribute of the folder "Visual Studio 2015" in <C:\Users\myuser\Documents>.

I've followed the install instructions for the 32 bit SQL Server 2014 feature pack, but can't seem to see the odata source component in the ssis toolbox. I've tried installing the 64 bit feature pack and still have the same problem even after refreshing the toolbox. I copied the Odata dll's in the DTS/ConnectionManager and DTS/PipelineComponents folders to make sure they are both in folders within ProgramFiles (x86) and ProgramFiles as specified here:

Cheers,
Now I can see the component in visual studio 2013 shell, but still not in visual studio 2012
Visual Studio 2013 = SQL Server 2014 SSIS packages
Visual Studio 2012 = SQL Server 2012 SSIS packages
A 2014 package is not compatible with 2012 and neither are the components. If you're building for 2012, you need to get the installation that pushes the DLLs into the 110 folder. If you're building for 2014, you'll need the assemblies that reside in 120.
And whichever/both you install, they'll all need to be registered in the global assembly cache during their installation on your development and the server. Many people skip installing on the server and then wonder why their packages do not work.
Re-download the .msi for the oData source for SSIS. It does the proper installs for you. I figured since this question is almost 3 years old it needed an updated answer. I'm using VS 2015 shell with SSDT and SQL Server 2014 with SSIS....it worked for me...kind of. There are other issues I'm having, but those are for another discussion.
I'm trying to run an SSIS package in Visual Studio 2012. When I click the "Start" button I get this very odd error in a popup from Visual Studio:
Method not found: 'Boolean
Microsoft.SqlServer.Dts.Design.VisualStudio2012Utils.IsVisualStudio2012ProInstalled()'.
(Microsoft.DataTransformationServices.VsIntegration)
Clicking on the show technical information, I get this stack trace:

Has anyone ever seen this error before or know what the issue might be? A bit of googling turned up absolutely nothing for me.
I was able to happily develop and run SSIS packages from Visual Studio 2012 without any issues just a couple days ago (I did reboot my PC over the weekend and some windows updates were installed)
ETA:
I was able to find a couple very recent technet posts about this here and here so I suspect this was something that broke in an update over the weekend. One post says he solved the issue by reinstalling, but of course I'd rather not go that route if I don't have to.
Open the Developer Command Prompt for VS212 as Administrator
execute the command cd "C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Visual Studio 11.0\Common7\IDE\PrivateAssemblies"
execute the command gacutil /if Microsoft.SqlServer.Dts.Design.dll
restart Visual Studio
Source msdn Fail to start project
For visual Studio 2013 execute the command cd "C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Visual Studio 12.0\Common7\IDE\PrivateAssemblies" in point 2 and then execute point 3 and 4.
The following is the command we have to use to resolve the issue:
"C:\Program Files\Microsoft SDKs\Windows\v8.0A\bin\NETFX 4.0 Tools\gacutil.exe" /if "C:\Program Files\Microsoft Visual Studio 11.0\Common7\IDE\PrivateAssemblies\Microsoft.SqlServer.Dts.Design.dll"
Make sure that your dll file and Gacutil.exe file locations are correct. It may be different in other systems.
Note: You should open your “Command Prompt” as an administrator to run the above command.
I experienced the same problem.
Downloaded and installed SQL Server 2012 SP2 and that seemed to have fixed the problem.
Hope this helps!!
This is probably happening because you have Visual Studio 2013 and the BI tools for it installed also. If you use Visual Studio 2013 for the same package it will probably work. The other answer suggesting the run of gacutil to register the old version may have negative impacts later when you want to use the Visual Studio 2013 tools for SSIS.
I had the exact same thing just happen and miraculously now my machine has been "fixed".
(I actually had it happen on both a Win 8.1 machine and a new Win 7 machine.)
My colleague and I noticed that the SSIS toolbox was missing from my IDE. After opening an SSIS package, going to the SSIS menu, and adding back in my "SSIS Toolbox", for some strange reason, my packages now run fine.
I'm guessing a recent update reset the behavior of the IDE.?.?
If this black magic worked for me, I'm hoping it will work for others.
EDIT:
I had the behavior revert itself.
I uninstalled SQL Server 2012 SP2 HF 5522, then rebooted
I then uninstalled SQL Server 2012 SP2, then rebooted
After that, my IDE still gave the error.
I then tried to apply SQL Server SP1 CU 9, but my environment said it wasn't needed.
I then rebooted one last time.
My SSIS Packages run again.
Voodoo...
If you're running across this issue somewhat after the fact (as I did), it appears that it has been fixed in a later release of the SSDT-BI tools installer. Either that, or the process of re-installing fixed it for me.
The file name of the installer on the download page has not changed, but there was a new version released in March of 2015. The new version number is 11.0.5583.0, and the previous version that was causing this error was 11.0.3436.0.
So a simple update might be sufficient. It worked for me with no changes to the GAC.
Just upgraded to Visual Studio 2012, connected to my TFS solution, upgraded all the projects from v4.0 to v4.5. Solution compiles and runs fine. Super.
Now I'm adding new code but compiler errors are not listed in the Error List output window. I only see errors related to .dll files not being found.
e.g. Error 1 Could not copy the file "C:\SourceCode\<snip>Library.dll" because it was not found. C:\WINDOWS\Microsoft.NET\Framework\v4.0.30319\Microsoft.Common.targets
Well of course it can't be found, I put the line:
thing bob = new thing();
into a class.
Unfortunately this error is not reported during compilation.
Even the detailed comiler output shows nothing after the csc.exe task:
6>Task "Csc"
6> C:\Windows\Microsoft.NET\Framework\v4.0.30319\Csc.exe <snip>
6>Done executing task "Csc".
If I run the csc.exe task in a cmd window you can clearly see the exception:
Microsoft (R) Visual C# Compiler version 4.0.30319.17929
for Microsoft (R) .NET Framework 4.5
Copyright (C) Microsoft Corporation. All rights reserved.
State\ConditionalAction.cs(16,13,16,18): error CS0246: The type or namespace name 'thing' could not be found (are you missing a using directive or an assembly reference?)
State\ConditionalAction.cs(16,29,16,34): error CS0246: The type or namespace name 'thing' could not be found (are you missing a using directive or an assembly reference?)
Has anyone seen this problem before or have any ideas?
EDIT more evidence
It seems that 'hard' compile errors are being reported i.e. by removing the semi-colon from the line of rubbish gives me a compiler error:
thing bob = new thing()
Error 2 ; expected C:\\ConditionalAction.cs 16
The error to do with the missing type, however, is still not present.
EDIT 2 more evidence
It appears that VS 2012 is unable to correctly identify that the project has an error with the missing type when starting to run and debug the MVC app (F5).
I just removed the offending code, ran the app, re-inserted the offending code, re-ran the app and VS merrily ran the previously-compiled version of the application without complaint.
I have had problems with visual studio, when upgrading to visual studio professional 2012.
Firstly, checking fundamentals.
Are you using the computer as a user with Administrative rights?
I suspect you are, but if not, you need to have administrative rights.
Have you checked if any files are being blocked by your firewall?
When I switched to the full version of Avast I find I have to disable the File System Shield It loves to remove my executable files when I try to run my visual studio projects.
Ensure you are creating your projects in 4.5 Framework.
What I did, was I ended up uninstalling EVERYTHING that was associated with both Visual Studio downloads. If you are able to remove and save your project files elsewhere and then bring them back. Go through all your program files to see if there is anything hidden in the wrong folder and check your C drive.
Which meant downloading and reinstalling (fresh):
Install Windows 7 Service Pack 1
Visual C++ 2012 Redistributable Package (arm.exe, x64.exe and x86,exe)
Microsoft .NET Framework 4.5
Microsoft Visual Studio 2012 SDK
Please read this quote from MSDN about Visual Studio 2012 update 3
Note Visual Studio and Team Foundation Server (TFS) installation
mechanics are different. The Visual Studio update installs on top of
whatever is already installed on the computer. The TFS update is a
full layout that replaces whatever is installed on the computer.
Before you try to apply the TFS update, make sure that you have a full
backup of your current databases. If the TFS update installation
fails, you will be unable to restart the update or roll back to the
earlier version of TFS without performing a restore procedure.
Go to this page for more information about the Visual Studio 2012 Update 3.
Here is also useful link Configuring Programs for 64-Bit (Visual C++).
I have visual studio express 2012
and it was working fine earlier I had run my solution once. But now when I do it, there appears a dialog box with the message!
the Microsoft.VisualStudio.Web.PasteJson.JsonPackage, Microsoft.VisualStudio.Web.PasteJson package did not load correctly.
the problem may have been caused by a configuration changhe or by installation of another extension. You can get more information by exmamining the file
C:\Users\AppData\Roaming\Microsoft\VWDExpress\11.0\Log.xml
continue to show this error message?
How do I get rid of this error?
I started to see this on the fresh windows & VS 2013 Ultimate with Update 2 installation.
To resolve the problem, close all Visual Studio instances head over to
C:\Users\<your users name>\AppData\Local\Microsoft\VisualStudio\12.0\ComponentModelCache
and delete all the files in the folder.
It worked fine for me. Thanks to this article.
Not relevant to VS 2012 express, but I experienced this problem with VS 2013 Premium. I had recently added the productivity power tools extension. To get back up and running, I loaded Visual Studio in safe mode:
C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Visual Studio 12.0\Common7\IDE>devenv /safemode
And un-installed the productivity tools. The errors went away.
You need to clear the ComponentModelCache folder or rename it. For Visual Studio 2013, it’s located in the %LOCALAPPDATA%\Microsoft\VisualStudio\12.0 folder.

I had Visual Studio 2013 Professional and I got the same error. I couldn't remove it until I repaired VS installation. It took a while but now it works fine.
I had this problem as I had an older version of VS2012 Express (release on Web Platform installer dated 15/08/2012).
Try installing 'Visual Studio 2012 Express for Web (Latest)' with release date 22/10/2012 from the Microsoft Web Platform Installer.
That is all I did and I no longer get those messages.
We developed an application in visual studio 2010 and reports are working fine, when we choose to open the same application through visual studio 2012 Ultimate, reports are not working and when i open .rpt file showing binary format ad also I could not find Crystalreport.rpt in Reporting template in visual studio 2012. After googling it, I have installed
CRforVS_redist_install_32bit_13_0_5 , but doesn't work.
How can i change or edit .rpt file design using visual studio 2012 and want to change the .rpt database name too. Any suggestion or idea to achieve this?
I had the same problem after installing visual studio 2012 and found no answer on the forums. I uninstalled CR yesterday and downloaded again the CRForVS 13.0.5 from here just in case there was a bug in the previous version I downloaded in may and installed it. Then I installed update 3 for Visual studio and everything works fine now.
Cheers
Michael
I figure this one out for me.
From SAP Crystal Reports's download site:
Please note: To integrate "SAP Crystal Reports, developer version for Microsoft > Visual Studio" you must run the Install Executable. Running the MSI will not ? >fully integrate Crystal Reports into VS. MSI files by definition are for runtime >distribution only.
By default Windows 10 does not install the 3.5 framework, CR for VS still needs >it. Select it by "Turn Windows feature on or off" and choose both options.
I downloaded the exe, instead of the MSI packages, and it worked for me finally. Helps to read I guess.
