Was this reply helpful? Yes No. Sorry this didn't help. Thanks for your feedback. At the moment the Creators update is not triggered yet by Windows Update not sorry for that but as soon at it does I will reinstall and if the issue comes up again I will try above solution. Thank you for the post. Indeed we do run the Creator Update and Symantec on our domain and the link you have supplied looks like the symptoms we are experiencing.

Unfortunately the bug appears to be crashing our Visual Studio instances so it is technically non-fatal but highly undesirable in a development company! We are escalating with our support channels. The content you requested has been removed.
