Thanks for reporting this issue. It looks like the crash is being caused by the CSS Auto Sync feature of Browser Link. If you're not using that feature, you should be able to avoid the crash by turning off that feature. (On the Standard toolbar, open the menu next to the Refresh Linked Browsers button, and turn off the CSS Auto Sync option.)

Let us know if that doesn't unblock you for now. We will investigate a fix for this crash in a future update.

It's inconvenient to turn off the CSS auto-sync feature, so there's a temporary solution here, that is, the css file browser is automatically synced with the Visual Studio code, and the rest continues to use visual studio 2017.

--------------------------

CSS自动同步功能关闭后会很不方便，所以在这里有一个临时的解决方案，就是用视觉工作室代码编辑css文件浏览器也会自动同步，其它还继续使用visual studio 2017，
