Microsoft.VisualStudio.Web.PasteJson.JsonPackage did not load properly

visual studio 2012

I have visual studio express 2012
and it was working fine earlier I had run my solution once. But now when I do it, there appears a dialog box with the message!

the Microsoft.VisualStudio.Web.PasteJson.JsonPackage, Microsoft.VisualStudio.Web.PasteJson package did not load correctly.

the problem may have been caused by a configuration changhe or by installation of another extension. You can get more information by exmamining the file
C:\Users\AppData\Roaming\Microsoft\VWDExpress\11.0\Log.xml

continue to show this error message?

How do I get rid of this error?

I started to see this on the fresh windows & VS 2013 Ultimate with Update 2 installation.

To resolve the problem, close all Visual Studio instances head over to

C:\Users\<your users name>\AppData\Local\Microsoft\VisualStudio\12.0\ComponentModelCache

and delete all the files in the folder.

It worked fine for me. Thanks to this article.
