MonoDevelop does not work anymore, after I updated Unity. There are already posts on the forums but none did solve it for me. Does anyone have a solution?

This is what MonoDevelop says at Start:

System.EntryPointNotFoundException: Unable to find an entry point named 'gtksharp_list_get_data' in DLL 'glibsharpglue-2'.

I don’t have the problem, but from my gut-feeling when looking at the error, I would recommend deinstalling all GTK-version you find in your system. Then reinstalling Unity.

There may be some messup with DLL’s and the GAC.

Deinstalling version of GTK# for .net (2.12.10) by Xamarin was helpfully for me. I’ve got W7 64bit with srvp 1

Find and download the MonoDelvelop.exe.config file and replace the one in your instalation. Also find and download the glibsharpglue-2.dll file ( Glibsharpglue-2.dll Unity Setup download - OriginalDLL.com ) and also replace in your instalation. It looks like the library is somehow broken in latest update.

This thread provided the file: MonoDevelop failed to start - Questions & Answers - Unity Discussions

The path for glibsharpglue-2.dll is Unity >> MonoDevelop >> bin >> glibsharpglue-2.dll

You should already have a copy of it just not a good one.
