Installing Visual Studio 2015 Update 1 give me lots of : "package did not load correctly"

I installed VS2015 with update 1 on Windows 7 Entreprise English over Visual Studio 2015. The setup result was some error(s). I Restarted my machine and run the setup again. The setup completed successfully.

Note: that I had Resharper installed on first setup and I removed before retry the setup for the second time (which succeeded).

After re-installation, I got many message box with "package did not load correctly".

Example: enter image description here

Now my visual Studio 2015 with Update 1 is totally upside down??? I got error message on start (package did not load correctly):

And many more when loading a project (package did not load correctly):

Any idea on how we can solve that problem???

Update: I'm trying now to uninstall and then re-install again with Visual Studio 2015 with Update 1...

I fixed my problem by uninstalling Visual Studio 2015 completely and re-install VS2015 with Update 1.

Try restarting the computer. It was what fixed the issue for me (which appeared right after modifying my installation, and I had not restarted the computer).

I had to do a combination of the other answers, none of which was uninstalling VS

  1. I renamed C:\Users\{User}\AppData\Local\Microsoft\VisualStudio\14.0
  2. started VS2015
  3. closed it down
  4. did the binding redirect for System.Collections.Immutable from https://stackoverflow.com/a/34018770/57883

Then I've been copying the extensions I think are safe over and seeing if projects all still load.

I found this, maybe that can solve your problem:

Packages not loading after installing visual studio 2015 RTM

By Shittu Joseph Olugbenga

All i did to get it working was to follow this step: 1.Close all instances of Visual Studio 2.Delete everything in this folder C:\Users\\AppData\Local\Microsoft\VisualStudio\12.0\ComponentModelCache 3.Restart Visual Studio

Though I have not tried this for 2015, I believe this should solve the problem too. To do this for visual studio 2015, 12.0 should be changed to 14.0
