Visual Studio 2017: The SDK resolver type “DotNetMSBuildSdkResolver” failed to load











up vote

I've just upgraded Visual Studio Community 2017 to the latest version (15.9.2).
I tried creating a new ASP.NET Core Web Application project. Although the project files got created ok, the project won't load into the Visual Studio Solution Explorer - when I try to load the project, VS shows the following message:



The SDK resolver type "DotNetMSBuildSdkResolver" failed to load. The type initializer for 'Microsoft.DotNet.MSBuildSdkResolver.VSSettings' threw an exception.



I have .NET Core SDK 2.1.500 installed.



Any ideas why this is happening? Unfortunately this is preventing me from working with this project.



(By the way - creating a ASP.NET Web Application (.NET Framework) (i.e. NOT core) works fine.

Had same error for the last few day.
I found a temporary workaround this problem - starting Visual Studio as Administrator

  • That didn't work for me. However, I've installed VS2017 on a different machine now (Windows 10 instead of Windows Server 2008) and that is working fine.

This looks to be an issue that's been introduced in the latest Visual Studio 2017 release. On my Windows Server 2008 system (where I was having the issue), I uninstalled 15.9.2 and installed the previous version 15.8.9 - that version worked fine. I.e. I can now load all my ASP.NET Core projects into the solution. (To be sure, I reinstalled 15.9.2 and confirmed that that that version definitely still did not work).
