Visual Studio: Error when removing a project

Does anyone know what extension causes this whenever you remove a project from a solution in Visual Studio 2010?

Microsoft Visual Studio

Visual Studio has encountered an unexpected error.

I've been having this problem for a while.

I have installed four extensions from the Online Gallery:

  • I Hate #Regions v1.2.6
  • Productivity Power Tools v10.0.20626.18
  • Visual Studio Background Customizer v1.0
  • Visual Studio Color Theme Editor v1.3

For me, the offending extension is Productivity Power Tools.

I have just confirmed this by turning off all of my extensions, then enabling one (and only one) at a time, removing a project from a solution, and then attempting to save the solution.

With Productivity Power Tools as the only enabled extension, I received the "Visual Studio has encountered an unexpected error" message.

Hope this helps.
