All projects in the solution are build under framework 4.8 All have Any Cpu as Platform Target . Not as 32-bit prefer option active. I have x64 arquitecture selected for tests. There is no testFile settings in use.

I try rebuild, clean rebuild, resinstall VS, nothing work. I can't find out what this error is.

Answer 1

Microsoft recognized the problem and roll out a fix in version VS 2019 16.5.2.

It is available now as VS 2019 16.5.2 Preview 2

Answer 2

I had a similar issue workaround try this command in the in run window "devenv /ResetSettings", It was worked for me.

Answer 3

I had this issue in Visual Studio Enterprise 2019 Version 16.5.4, but restarting VS fixed it.

Answer 4

Faced this issue in following version. Clean and Rebuild Solution worked for me. Microsoft Visual Studio Community 2019 Version 16.6.3

Answer 5

Fixed by closing and opening VS.

Everything worked (VS2019) and suddenly started failing with a similar (did not compare word to word) callstack. Rebuilding did not help, neither did manually killing hung processes from test console. After re-opening VS - everything back to normal

Answer 6

Epic fail: Installed Preview 2019 and the 2019 VS studio. Epic success: Working on Windows 10, version 1909 and only VS 2017 is working.
