Visual Studio Community Keeps Crashing / Stopped Working On Start Up - visual-studio

Every time I load Visual Studio it keeps crashing / Stopped working. It happened before but I uninstalled it and reinstalled it and still the same problem I use the Visual Studio 2015 and still the same problem , I would look for the log but I can't locate it.

Try to look for answers here:

"Visual Studio 2012 has stopped working" when solution is opened

In each page the error MS Visual Studio *** has stopped working is mentioned.

Visual Studio 2017 & 2019 do not start but with no errors

On my Windows 10 Pro desktop machine both Visual Studio Community 2017 & 2019 do not start at all but no errors are shown when I create a log file.
Starting them with the switch /SafeMode did not help either.
I have tried repairing the installation, uninstalling them and installing them again with my Antivirus disabled but to no avail.
Please help, Visual Studio is absolutely necessary for me as a .NET developer and I don't want to go back to Visual Studio 2010.

Working in Visual Studio Professional 2015 while updating to Update 3 - Visual Studio starts to fail

I got the Visual Studio Professional 2015 Update 3 and launched the executable (vs2015.3.exe) while Visual Studio was still running. I got the following "Setup warning" but thought that a computer restart was fine as long as I could work during the update.
Please close visual studio now to reduce the chance that a computer
restart will be required later
Visual Studio immediately started acting strange, loosing Intellisense among others. I decided to restart Visual Studio and was then met with the error:
Cannot run when setup is in progress
I then canceled the update and thought that I could install this update during the night instead. When I opened Visual Studio again and tried to load a project I got the following error:
Project '' could not be opened because the Visual C# 2015 compiler
could not be created. Please re-install Visual Studio.
I then opened Update 3 executable again to complete the update. I was met with this feature list and could not do anything:
Restarted the computer but was met with the same dialog. I then opened Visual Studio again and this time the project loaded but without Intellisense. Restarted Visual Studio and now the project would not load at all. I then deleted the content of these 2 folders and ran devenv /resetsettings
C:\Users\%USERNAME%\AppData\Roaming\Microsoft\VisualStudio\
C:\Users\%USERNAME%\AppData\Local\Microsoft\VisualStudio\14.0\ComponentModelCache
I could now open the Visual Studio project normally again but I still could not get features when running the Update 3 executable. Is there anything else I can do or do I need to reinstall Visual Studio completely? I think it is really bad that the warning Microsoft gives is that a computer restart might be required when obviously the program cannot run in the background while updating.
Solved it by going to Control panel -> Programs and Features -> Microsoft Visual Studio Professional 2015 with Updates. Click "Change" and then select "Repair".

msvcp120d.dll missing when trying to run on visual studio 2015

I had Visual studio 2013 installed and had my code running on it.
A few months ago I installed Visual studio 2015 and debugged my project there.
A week ago I decided since I'm no longer using Visual studio 2013 to uninstall it.
Ever since I have not been able to run my code in debug mode in 2015. I have tried cleaning my project and rebuilding it (my code has no dependencies on other compiled codes). I have also tried installing Visual studio 2013 redistribute pack but I still get an error that msvcp120d.dll is missing when I try to launch the debug version of my code.
Any idea on how to fix this?

0x89721500 error in Visual Studio 2015

After installing Visual Studio 2015 from previous 2013 update 4 I was not able to deploy my Windows Phone apps to devices getting error 0x89721500.
I solved just deleting directory "C:\Users\AppData\Local\Microsoft\Phone Tools\CoreCon\11.0" then restarting Visual Studio.
Hope this helps.
