When attempting to start a new project, VS gives the following error: "...\AppData\Local\Temp\omsmylzw.01n\Temp#" was not found. Confirm that the path in the declaration is correct, and that the file exists on disk."

Getting error when trying to create a repgen project.

Hi, thanks a lot for creating this extension!

I'm seeing the below error when trying to create a new repgen project:

Any ideas?

VS2012 Support Broken

Transferring issue to the active repository from the original (which has since been deleted).
Original Submitted by: tpetersheim

The support for VS2012 seems to be broken. I have installed the extension via the VS Extension Manager and I get an error referring me to look at the ActivityLog.xml in AppData. That log reports the following error:

<entry>
    ...
    <description>CreateInstance failed for package [VisorPackage]
    <guid>{B06DD064-A1CA-4C34-8411-7BA23013C31F}

</entry>

I think I found a similar issue on stackoverflow. The references get messed up when converting to VS2013.
