Crash When Opening Solution

When I try to open a solution the Visual Studio Just-In-Time Debugger opens stating;

An unhandled Microsfot .NET Framework exception occurred in devenv.exe [3864].

Then provides me with Possible Debuggers the only on of which is 'New instance of Microsoft Visual Studio 2010'.

If I click no the whole thing closes, if I click yes it opens another Visual Studio with the title devenv (Running) for a few seconds then devenv (Debugging) which then crashes with;

System.ExecutionEngineException was unhandled
Message=Exception of type 'System.ExecutionEngineException' was thrown.
InnerException: 

After that my original solution just closes and I'm left with the empty devenv solution. Please help.

For some reason, some extensions require you to launch Visual Studio as an Administrator. It seems like something small, but I ran it as admin and there it no longer crashed with the .net error.
