MonoDevelop startup can be troublesome on Windows

Often the first time I open it will say “Error while trying to load the project ‘…csproj’: Object reference nto set to an instance of an object.” And if I do some debugging and close MonoDevelop the next time I open it may fail to open and I have to kill the MonoDevelop process to fix.

Still getting messages the first time I open MonoDevelop from Unity - what’s the deal? Windows 8.1 Unity 4.5
This time:
Error while trying to load the project ‘…csproj’: Collection was modified; enumeration operation may not execute.

I’d give up on Monodevelop if I were you - it’s awful!
The free version of Visual Studio now supports plugins, which means you can use the (now free) UnityVS
Visual Studio etc: Visual Studio 2022 Community Edition – Download Latest Free Version
