Visual Studio 2013 Express crashes when adding a new file

VS 2013 Express is crashing when adding any new type of file to a project.

e.g. Trying to add a main.cpp to a new empty C++ project results in the program either hanging then crashing or instantly quitting.

I've tried rebooting, repairing the installation, running in safe mode, re-installing etc. The problem continues to persist.

I'm on a Windows 8.1

Anyone have any ideas?

EDIT: Installed Visual Studio Express 2012 and the problem is occurring there too. It is not occurring in Visual Studio 2015 RC

Fixed the issue by uninstalling Visual Studio 2015 RC.

Did you try it with /resetsettings or /safemode? If you are moving back and forth between versions, you could have settings from one version effecting the other.
