    Two suggestions.

    Do a repair on Visual Studio 2019 and it could not hurt to update to latest version if you are not already on it.

    If the repair / install newer version does not work open the directory with your solution in it and delete the hidden .vs folder (visual studio probably needs to be closed to do it). It will forget what files you had open when you open solution and you will have to set startup projects again.

    Hi SrikanthPolineni,

    You can have a try following workarounds:

    • Clear the cache in C:\Users\userName\AppData\Local\Microsoft\VisualStudio\16.0_{versionNumber}\ComponentModelCache
    • Run VS in safe mode

    Best Regards,
    Dylan
