Open visual studio 2012 files will disappear

When I work in Visual Studio 2012 and debug, making changes and debugging after a while, my open documents disappear. They are still open, apparently (I would add a screenshot, but cannot yet), but going to Window> (file) and trying to select it do nothing. I need to select "Close all documents" (fine, if there is only one or two, but the next time I debug, I will return to the same state) or restart the application. Is anyone else experiencing this? I am wondering if this is the extension that is causing the problem.

Installed Extensions:

  • Advanced Installer 9.6.1
  • Microsoft Web Developer Tools NuGet Package
  • Performance Manager for Electronics
  • Spellchecking
  • Team Foundation Server Power Tools 2012
  • Telerik WebUI VSExtensions
  • Telerik Windows Phone VSExtensions
  • Telerik WinForms VSEXtensions
  • TFS Pocess Template Editor
  • Partnership with TFS Team
  • TFS Work Item Type Designer
  • Visual Studio 2012 Color Theme Editor
  • Visual Studio Extensions for the Windows Library for JavaScript
  • VSCommands for Visual Studio 2012 Web Essentials 2012
  • ReSharper 7.1.1

The problem is that VSCommands for Visual Studio 2012 (early release). I uninstalled it and stopped the problem, then reinstalled it and the problem returned. I don’t know if this conflicts with another add-in, but now I won’t remove it.

I had the same problem, but I did not have VSCommands. Instead, I removed a couple of VS 2010 components (yes 2010) that were recently installed. So far, everything is working. (There may be some version confusion, so 2012 chose some of the wrong 2010 components. Just guess ...)
