System.Exception: VisualGDB Host is not initialized properly

[Timo]

When opening existing projects from my company, i always get the following message in my output log:

error: Designtime build failed for project ‘<path to project>’, configuration ‘Debug|VisualGDB’. IntelliSense might be unavailable.
Set environment variable TRACEDESIGNTIME=true and restart Visual Studio to investigate.

Likewise, every time i switch configurations, i get flooded with dozens of

error : Designtime build failed for project ‘<path to project>’ configuration ‘Release|VisualGDB’. IntelliSense might be unavailable.
Set environment variable TRACEDESIGNTIME = true and restart Visual Studio to investigate.

A fresh new project does not seem to have this problem.

If i set the variable mentioned, the log file created ends with this error:

I have attached one such log file.

The project compiles  just fine. VC++ intellisense does not seem to work, though the clang one does.

Any pointers on what i can try next?
