Installing VS2012 on drive other then the C: can cause issues if you've had a installation on the C drive prior to this installation.

In my scenario I had the VS2012 RC installed on my C drive, but when I installed the retail release, and chose to install to my D drive (after uninstalling the RC version) some settings were not reset properly.

Uninstalling and re-installing on the C drive fixed the problem.
