I get an error and hard VS crash when I type in a specific class of mine: "The supplied SnapshotPoint is on an incorrect snapshot". It does not happen sometimes - it happens always.

Here is the VS community post on it: https://developercommunity.visualstudio.com/content/problem/311087/hard-crash-with-the-supplied-snapshotpoint-is-on-a.html The problem is that the solution includes installing VS 2019.

Has anyone else experienced this cataclysmic crisis?

My interim solution is to edit the class in notepad. If the problem persists I will be pursuing a career in SAP.

Thanks for your attention

I think I got the issue and posted a quick blog post here. The solution was actually to disable Word wrap option in VS.

Hope this helps late comers.

As I understand it, we can't fix it until we deprecate VS2015 and can move on to a newer API available in VS2017 and above. We announced deprecation of VS2015 support for April 2021.

I can also confirm that this solved the problem, just had the problem on a new devbox i spun up last week.

So just wondering when it it going to be fixed?

Joris,

I am having the same issue. I was able to turn off one of the check boxes but not both cause the parent one is disable.

having only one disable the error still occurs.

Not sure what that is about... what happens if you enable "show visual glyphs"... do both then turn on? Can you then disable the parent?

Hi Joris,

In my VM WordWrap is greyed out.

Well you said "if "word wrap" and "show visual glyphs for word wrap" are both enabled, this issue happens". But I removed "word wrap" as well. Thanks!

No, we suggested to turn word wrap OFF. :-)
