Try disabling Add-ins (e.g. “Tools” | “Add-in Manager”) or run “devenv.exe /SafeMode”.This can eliminate the possibility that third party Add-ins or packages are causing problems. (For more detailed VS command line switches information, see: http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/library/xee0c8y7.aspx )

Yeah...of course there is...Just go to Tools menu and select Add-in Manager, then uncheck the addins you don't want to run. You can also remove the check in Startup column to disable the adding when you start Visual Studio. You can always enable them again from Add-in Manager.
