VS2012 crashes every time I try to copy text - visual-studio

This has become a major problem as I cannot copy any text in the IDE. Every time I try to do so VS2012 crashes. A Google search hasn't turned up anything.
I do still have VS2010 installed - don't if that's the problem. Has anyone come across this? Any solutions? Advice (not copying does not qualify as advice or an answer)? :) Thanks.

Cannot install Visual Studio 2013 update 5 (RTM); Tools for Apache Cordova

I am trying to install VS2013 update 5 but it will not install as it says it is blocked and I must "uninstall the older version of Visual Studio Tools for Apache Cordova (Multi Device Hybrid Apps) through Control Panel...".
I have uninstalled this as requested (though the new version - 14.0.50619.1 - that installs with VS2015 is still installed) but it still will not let me install and keeps repeating the message.

Thanks
Can you try this -
Open RegEdit, find this key:
HKCU\Software\Microsoft\VisualStudio\12.0\JavaScriptLanguageService
Delete the MDD-specific value: “ReferenceGroups_MDD”.
Do not delete the “ReferenceGroups” value, or you may mess up your JSLS intelli-sense for non-MDD scenarios.
Deleting that ReferenceGroups_MDD value under the JSLS key should unblock the installation of any installers that are blocking because they (incorrectly) think that you still have the VS2013 Tools for Apache Cordova installed.
Note: If you upgrade to Update5, you will lose the ability to work with MDD projects until we release the next version of our tools that work on top of update5. We are in process of validating our next release for Update5 and will release it soon.
I am sorry that the uninstall of our tools (for Apache Cordova) is not working for you.
The command to uninstall a previous version of the tools has 2 different GUIDS in it.
"%ProgramData%\Package Cache\{f2f851cc-42a1-41f2-a2cd-a0e4627a60cb}\vs2013mda_0.1.exe" /uninstall /passive /force/burn.ignoredependencies={53d408db-eb91-43fb-9d8f-167681c19763};vsupdate_KB2829760
The first is the GUID of the Cordova package that you have installed on your machine that you want to uninstall. You can find the correct GUID to use by searching under %ProgramData%\Package Cache for vs2013mda_0.1.exe and find the GUID of the folder where it resides. Substitute the GUID you find on your machine for the first GUID in the command line script.
The second GUID in the command is the GUID of the package that is blocking the uninstall. There are a number of packages that will block the uninstall, and we have included a command for all of them but perhaps not with the right combination of MDD GUID that you have on your machine.
Here is a guide to which GUID you should use in the 2nd part of the command:
If you have VS 2013 Update 4 installed on your machine:
{53d408db-eb91-43fb-9d8f-167681c19763}
If you have VS 2013 Update 5 CTP1 installed on your machine:
{ee836379-0143-481a-97c9-d577d049e22a}
If you have VS 2013 Update 5 CTP2 installed on your machine:
{cf552a8c-484b-4e33-afe7-c81dfadb0cfc}
If none of these work for you still, you can find the correct GUID to use by looking in the uninstall log for the MDD tools. When you attempt to uninstall MDD tools via Add Remove Programs, it will create a log file in %Temp% called dd_mda_tools_YYYYMMDDNNNN.log. In that uninstall log there will be a line that looks something like this:
Detected related bundle: {53d408db-eb91-43fb-9d8f-167681c19763}, type: Dependent.
Chances are the GUID for the related bundle in your file will be different from the ones we have covered in the pre-constructed commands. You can substitute the dependent GUID that you find in your uninstall log for the GUID in the 2nd part of the command.
Let me know if this works or not.

Visual Studio 2013 Slow IDE Responsiveness [closed]

Closed. This question does not meet Stack Overflow guidelines. It is not currently accepting answers.
Closed 8 years ago.
This question appears to be off-topic because it lacks sufficient information to diagnose the problem. Describe your problem in more detail or include a minimal example in the question itself.
This question does not appear to be about a specific programming problem, a software algorithm, or software tools primarily used by programmers. If you believe the question would be on-topic on another Stack Exchange site, you can leave a comment to explain where the question may be able to be answered.
Improve this question
For some unknow reason, Visual Studio 2013's IDE seems less responsive. It should be fairly snapping considering that I'm running it on a high end PC with lots of RAM. This happens even when I am not debugging my web application.
When I click on menus, there's a noticable delay before it responds and there's no highlighting of the menu. Clicking on HTML text or items in the solution explorer is also slow. Sometimes there's a pause with the cursor stuck on a text selection state.
Here's my configuration from the Help screen:

Colored bars have appeard in my Visual Studio 2012 beside the line numbers

Today when I started Visual Studio 2012 at work I found some new colored bars.
We work on a shared remote server through RDP, so I asked around if someone has installed or updated anything. It seems no one has done "anything".
There are the bars I'm seeing:
The leftmost bars, the green and yellow one, I know about. They show where the file has been edited since its opening (yellow means the changes has not been saved yet, green means they have been saved).
The rightmost one, I'm lost about them. They seem to usually mirror the leftmost, but not always. They persist through file close-reopen.
Through some tinkering, it seems the green rectangles means new lines added, the blue rectangles means existing lines modified and the red triangles means removed lines.
These are the information form Visual Studio's About window:

I have these extensions installed:
Can someone shed some light on this, and how can I disable them? My OCD is complaining about the conflicting information...
They come from the GIT source control provider. I suppose your project is versioned, so those bars give you information about lines that are changed in some way, and what is the nature of the change.

Why is Visual Studio 2010 reading project files continously?

I turned process monitoring on and I noticed that vs 2010 doesn't stand still, it continuously reads the project files in the solution. Wtf?
I have this solution that progressively becomes slower and slower to the point where when I type in the C# editor the letters appear a few seconds later.
Below there is some info about the environment:
Is there anything I can do? And I am using TFS.

After more usage, I noticed that it has to do with Resharper and running multiple instances of Visual Studio. As soon as I start having 3 or more instances vs2010 slows down. I also reported this issue to the Resharper folks.
Without resharper the ide was fast - I haven't tried though running multiple instances without resharper.
Since I love resharper I now use only one instance of vs 2010 and open others only when I need them and close them as soon as I don't need them.
