One of our developers could not startup Visual Studio 2005 with
VisualSVN. The error message:
Package Load Failure
Package 'VisualSVN' has failed to load properly (GUID = {133240D5-
FAFA-4868-8FD7-5190A259E676} ). Please contact package vendor for
assistance. Application restart is recommended, due to possible
environment corruption. .....
The VisualSVN log says:
ERROR: Failed to setup custom marker colors: Catastrophic failure
(Exception from HRESULT: 0x8000FFFF (E_UNEXPECTED))
Operating system: Windows XP 32-bit Service Pack 2 build 2600.
I suspect it might have something to do with the latest Microsoft
Security Patch KB971023 (http://support.microsoft.com/kb/971023).
Unfortunately we can't uninstall this patch to confirm if it is the
culprit.
Does anyone else have this problem? How did you get around it?
