ReSharper 8.2.3 crashes during startup of Visual Studio 2008

When I start up my Visual Studio 2008 with ReSharper 8.2.3 using the /Log switch, I can see in the produced log-file, that several exceptions are thrown by ReSharper. I cannot use VS to change any files (typing is not deactivated, but it ignores any non-ascii typing). As soon as I deactivate ReSharper, everything is back to normal.

devenv.exe /Resharper.LogFile /Resharper.LogLevel Verbose output:

[snipped - there were many more exceptions in the log....]

Any idea, what is causing this? Or how I can fix it?

Solution

  • Who would have thought, that the solution is so simple. I vaguely remembered setting a new language locale on my system prior to going on holiday. After returning from said holiday, the phenomenon described in the question started.

    Solution

    1. Remove the language locale en-CH (english Switzerland) and set the default en-US.
    2. Restart the PC.
    3. Problem solved.
