VS 2015 The Operation Could not be Completed Invalid Pointer

Codex Discipulus October 18, 2016

I don’t remember installing any VS 2015 updates, but I don’t remember testing the MVC project either. I did upgraded TypeScript, but didn’t update or install any new NUGET package. All of the sudden, I am trying to edit the INDEX.CSHTML view and get the following error message: “The operation could not be completed. Invalid pointer”.

Here are some good solutions: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/14252927/the-operation-could-not-be-completed-invalid-pointer

The one that help me was to delete the ComponentModelCache. These are the steps I followed:

  1. Close all VS instances.
  2. Open Explorer, then go to: Users\{YourUsername}\AppData\Local\Microsoft\VisualStudio\14.0\
  3. Delete the folder: ComponentModelCache
  4. Open VS 2015.

Not sure what it was, or why it happen, but it was solved after following those steps.
