Hello @ESTEBAN UGALDE,

Welcome to Microsoft Q&A forum.

Please try to/make sure that following workload and components have been installed:

Workload

=> ASP.NET and web development

Components

=> .NET Framework project and item templates

=> Additional project templates (previous versions)

=> .NET Framework 4.8.1 development tools

Maybe this issue is caused by .NET Framework. I would suggest you also download and install .NET Framework 4.8/4.8.1 SDK from here: Download .NET Framework. If you have installed it, try to repair it by running the setup file of .NET Framework 4.8/4.8.1 => Repair.

Besides, there's a similar issue here: Unable to make a Web Form Project with a template. If this error persists, kindly follow, add comments on that ticket and wait for any latest update.

Sincerely,

Tianyu

Hi @ESTEBAN UGALDE,

If you uncheck the "Place solution and project in the same directory" option when you creating the project, will this error disappear?

Please also try to repair Visual Studio from Visual Studio Installer => More => Repair(this may take some time).

I already solved it, there were some problems in the Windows registry editor

Hello Hello, clean the Windows registry editor (Regedit) with these 2 apps: Argente Utilities and RegPair.First test with Argent, what this tool does is analyze the errors you have and then you give it everything repair and then you restart the computer. And then I tried RegPair first with Custom Scan checking all the options and then I gave it Fix Errors and restarted the computer, and then I tried RegPair with Full Scan and gave it Fix Errors and restarted the computer and then I already ran Visual Studio open or create one and I don't get the error anymore. These are the download links for the tools. RegPair https://www.regsofts.com/download/RegpairSetup.exe Argente Utilities https://argenteutilities.com/es/download/autilities-old
