I am able to work in the Source view with no problems. However, as soon as I click Design the source freezes and hangs. The same thing happens when I switch to Split as well. I cannot find much documentation/support for this issue and wondered if anyone else ran into this as well or has a potential fix?

    Try cleaning solution beforehand. I believe I've read about this bug. Or clean-->restart VS--> rebuild – Claudius Feb 16 '16 at 17:27
  • Yeah, unfortunately no luck. It was worth a try though. – Tim Feb 16 '16 at 17:55

    did you try anything from here? http://stackoverflow.com/questions/31021049/visual-studio-2015-crashes – Claudius Feb 16 '16 at 18:00
  • Yep, still nothing. I'm absolutely at a loss for what's causing this because if I create a new webform project, I have no problem getting to design. So it must be an issue with the application configuration itself??? Either way thanks for at least pointing me in some direction. – Tim Feb 16 '16 at 19:27
  • maybe try copying designer code to new project and see there or inspect it carefully for errors. – Claudius Feb 16 '16 at 20:04

Firstly please make sure you have selected the project/solution you are working on ,on the left bar (esp. if working with multiple projects.)

When that is done, clean and rebuild your solution. When this is done , try again.

If all fails, restart your machine and IIS (in that order) and try again.
