VS 2015 Update 1 crash on startup when Arduino IDE is installed

Hello,

I installed Arduino IDE extension in VS 2015 Pro before VS Update 1. It worked correctly. Then I upgraded Visual Studio to VS 2015 Update 1 and now it crashes on startup ("Microsoft Visual Studio 2015 has stopped working"). Uninstalling Arduino IDE fixed my VS, but installing it again made it crash again.

All this happened before Xmas. Today I tried again, installed version 1601.4.0 (as reported by VS Gallery website) and it still crashes on startup.

Please let me know how I can provide more information to debug this problem.

Sorry for the delayed response.

There are a lot of people running Update 1 and Visual Micro without crash so this might be related to a clash with some other VS component or extension.

It would help if you could use the VS logging and email the results to info[at]visualmicro.com

The following link shows how to use the VS logging system.

Since you suggested a conflict with other extension, I did some tests and it seems that the crash occurs when Arduino IDE is installed together with GitExtensions (https://visualstudiogallery.msdn.microsoft.com/35c2f314-a6ab-479a-b4a3-cff99103d...).
I also noticed that both extensions insert new menu item between "Team" and "Tools", so maybe the problem is related to menu handling?

I'll be sending the logs to your email in a moment.

Did you see that Microsoft/Git have an official Git extension?

https://visualstudio.github.com/

Is there something in the official Git extension that is missing for you?
