I installed Visual Studio 2012 Update 1 and now I can't add a reference to any project.

The Add Reference dialog does not open at all.

The ActivityLog.xml contains these errors :

550 Begin package load [ReferenceManagerPackage] {48D4A2C1-02AD-4F18-9153-620511BACB7B} VisualStudio 2012年12月09日 00:39:58.544

I'm on VS2012 Professional.

Following a suggestion from the Visual Studio Setup and Installation forums, I uninstalled and reinstalled Visual Studio and the problem is gone for now ...

Note that I had difficulties uninstalling Visual Studio, I guess the install had been corrupted but by what ?
