The "MainWindow" section was not easy to find, so once I found VisualStudio, I did a search in that spot for the value of the error (which was -996 for me).

It seems the Registers have changed since VS 2010.<br />Gor VS 2013, you have to modify HKEY_USERS\S-1-5-21-1181729300-1976498228-1094237608-1001\Software\Microsoft\VisualStudio\12.0\MainWindow - just make sure there's no negative value.
