Couldn't close the visual studio.

Question

Hi,
My requirement is to open a internal browser in my application. My application is a plugin to a visual studio, which looks similar like VS.
I have the following code, which works perfect.
dispatcher.BeginInvoke((System.Threading.ThreadStart)delegate()
IVsWebBrowsingService browser =
this.viewModel.Service.GetService<SVsWebBrowsingService,
IVsWebBrowsingService>();
IVsWindowFrame frame =
null;
int hr = browser.Navigate(Path.GetFullPath(this.viewModel.ReportSetting.OutputFileName),
0, out frame);
System.Diagnostics.Debug.Assert(hr ==
VSConstants.S_OK,
"Navigate did not return S_OK.");
//this.viewModel.ReportSetting.OutputFileName = "C:\Outputfile.xml"
All works fine, problem here is when i try to close the Visual studio(My application), i am getting a pop up window saying
"Microsoft Visual Studio has detected that
an operation is blocking user input. This can be caused by an active modal dialog or task that needs to block user interaction. Would you like to shut down anyway?"
Could you please let me know what could be cause for this issue.
Thanks in advance.

Hi puni_vidhya,

According to the exception message, to check if the issue is related to the plugin impact the Visual Studio close, so I suggest you could try to
run devenv.exe /safemode in command line and then try to close the VS again to check this issue.

(1) If you did not get same issue, I doubt that the issue is related to the plugin, so I suggest you disable Add-ins (e.g. “Tools” | “Add-in Manager”) and then check this issue again.
(2) If you get same issue, I suggest you could try to create a simple project and then close the VS check if all type projects have same issue.
(a) If all the error have same issue, maybe you will need to repair or re-install the VS and then check this issue.
(b) If the issue just occurs in the specified application, I assume that the issue may be related to your application itself issue. So please you debug your application to check this issue again.
