After removing some dlls from the GAC using gacutil -u <dll> in the Visual Studio 2013 command line, my Visual Studio 2013 has stopped working.

When I open it, it crashes with the following error in event viewer:

Faulting application name: devenv.exe, version: 12.0.31101.0, time stamp: 0x54548724

  • You crashed VS with this site's name, 0xc00000fd is the exception code for a stack overflow exception. That's a rather fatal mishap, they didn't pick this site's name for frivolous stuff. Any kind of "you probably should not have done that" advice is rather obvious, the least-tested code is the code that doesn't expect the world to collapse. Keep in mind that you can pretty easily crash VS with your own code, an SOE at design-time in Winforms is just as bad. – Hans Passant Mar 03 '15 at 23:21
