Apparently is a problem with an update of Windows, the upgrade process does not take into account or modifies erroneously a file that interfere with the operation of the Diagnostic Tools window.

The solution -though there is supposed to later version of Visual Studio will delete those files- is follow these instructions:

  1. Close Visual Studio.
  2. Open an Administrator Command Prompt
  3. Enter the following commands:
cd %systemroot%\system32

takeown /f DiagnosticsHub.*

icacls DiagnosticsHub.* /grant %username%:F

del /q DiagnosticsHub.*

Now should restart Visual Studio.
