Fresh install of visual studio 2015 community, exception when load Team Explorer

Question

I just installed VS 2015 community on a brand new laptop, it was the first thing I installed. VS opens fine, but when I open the Team Explorer tool window I get this error showing in it:

 System.ArgumentException: Object of type 'System.Collections.Generic.List`1[System.Lazy`2[Microsoft.TeamFoundation.Controls.WinForms.PermissionRow,Microsoft.TeamFoundation.Controls.Avatars.DefaultIOHandler]]' cannot be converted to type 'System.Collections.Generic.List`1[System.Lazy`2[Microsoft.TeamFoundation.Controls.ITeamExplorerNavigationItem,Microsoft.TeamFoundation.Controls.WPF.TeamExplorer.Framework.ITeamExplorerNavigationItemMetadata]]'. at System.RuntimeType.TryChangeType(Object value, Binder binder, CultureInfo culture, Boolean needsSpecialCast) at System.RuntimeType.CheckValue(Object value, Binder binder, CultureInfo culture, BindingFlags invokeAttr) at System.Reflection.MethodBase.CheckArguments(Object[] parameters, Binder binder, BindingFlags invokeAttr, CultureInfo culture, Signature sig) at System.Reflection.RuntimeMethodInfo.InvokeArgumentsCheck(Object obj, BindingFlags invokeAttr, Binder binder, Object[] parameters, CultureInfo culture) at System.Reflection.RuntimeMethodInfo.Invoke(Object obj, BindingFlags invokeAttr, Binder binder, Object[] parameters, CultureInfo culture) at System.Reflection.RuntimePropertyInfo.SetValue(Object obj, Object value, BindingFlags invokeAttr, Binder binder, Object[] index, CultureInfo culture) at System.Reflection.RuntimePropertyInfo.SetValue(Object obj, Object value, Object[] index) at Microsoft.VisualStudio.Composition.RuntimeExportProviderFactory.RuntimeExportProvider.SetImportingMember(Object part, MemberInfo member, Object value) at Microsoft.VisualStudio.Composition.RuntimeExportProviderFactory.RuntimeExportProvider.GetValueForImportSite(RuntimePartLifecycleTracker importingPartTracker, RuntimeImport import) at Microsoft.VisualStudio.Composition.RuntimeExportProviderFactory.RuntimeExportProvider.RuntimePartLifecycleTracker.SatisfyImports() at Microsoft.VisualStudio.Composition.ExportProvider.PartLifecycleTracker.SatisfyImmediateImports() at Microsoft.VisualStudio.Composition.ExportProvider.PartLifecycleTracker.MoveNext(PartLifecycleState nextState) at Microsoft.VisualStudio.Composition.ExportProvider.PartLifecycleTracker.MoveToState(PartLifecycleState requiredState) at Microsoft.VisualStudio.Composition.ExportProvider.PartLifecycleTracker.GetValueReadyToExpose() at Microsoft.VisualStudio.Composition.ExportProvider.<>c__DisplayClass53_0.<CreateExport>b__0() at Microsoft.VisualStudio.Composition.ExportProvider.<>c__DisplayClass55_0.<CreateExportFactoryExport>b__1() at Microsoft.VisualStudio.Composition.ExportProvider.<>c__DisplayClass54_0.<CreateExportFactory>b__0() at Microsoft.VisualStudio.Composition.DelegateServices.<>c__DisplayClass2_0`1.<As>b__0() at System.ComponentModel.Composition.ExportFactory`1.CreateExport() at Microsoft.VisualStudio.Composition.NetFxAdapters.MefV1ExportProvider.ComposablePartDefinitionForExportFactory.CreatePart() at System.ComponentModel.Composition.ReflectionModel.ExportFactoryCreator.LifetimeContext.GetExportLifetimeContextFromExport[T](Export export) at System.ComponentModel.Composition.ReflectionModel.ExportFactoryCreator.<>c__DisplayClass6_0`2.<CreateStronglyTypedExportFactoryOfTM>b__0() at System.ComponentModel.Composition.ExportFactory`1.CreateExport() at Microsoft.TeamFoundation.Controls.WPF.TeamExplorer.Framework.TeamExplorerSectionHost.Create() 

Does anyone know how to fix this, I tried reinstalling and it still causes this error.

Answer 1

At least the reference Microsoft.TeamFoundation.Controls and so the ITeamExplorerNavigationItem seems not to exist anymore in Visual Studio 2015.

I just tried to create an extension for the Team Explorer and get stuck at this point.
