When I am trying to paste reference other than system one I am receiving error:
hresult e_fail has been returned from a call to COM component.
Steps to reproduce:
Open 1'st instance of Visual Studio and open project
Open 2'nd instance of Visual Studio and open project
Right click on reference in 1'st VS instance and select Copy Reference (make sure that this is not a reference from GAC but some third party dll)
Right click on References in 2'nd VS instance and select Paste References
Error will pop up.
I can replicate this on latest version of VS Community 15.9.9
I was trying to find out more in ActivityLog of visual studio but did not found anything related to this error.
When I am trying to copy/paste a system reference (from GAC) then it is working correctly.
