Visual Studio 2012 and Program Compatibility Assistant

Question

I have been successfully using VS2012 on Win7-x64 for months now. Today after restarting my machine launching VS2012 brings up this compatibility dialog:

Clicking "Check for solutions Online" has no effect. I could run the program with "Run Program" but then VS2012 is not stable and I cannot run our custom development and source-control plugins.

Did anyone else ran into this issue with VS2012 or any ideas? Appreciate your help.

Best, Sarang

@EricLippert: that's good, however after paying $$$ and if my work grinds to halt I picture something else :) – Trimming

Thanks for this, was searching for a fix then came across this! – Recha

Since time has passed, the best answer is now to install the latest Update (as in the other answer) - this hotfix is included in all Updates from 2 on. go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?LinkId=301713 – Evangelista

Answer 2

Visual Studio 2012 hotfix KB2781514 (from Sarang's correct answer) is part of Visual Studio 2012 Update 2. Instead of installing just this one hotfix it is better to install the latest update. As of this writing the latest one is Update 5.
