Hi Steve,

I hope working around the issue is not causing inconvenience to you.

We have logged an item in our backlog and will further look into the matter. Based on the current information from the StackOverflow thread and the GitHub issue we can not draw a definitive conclusion where the problem is. Yet if we determine that the exception is caused by our product we will deploy a fix with one of our future releases.

If you have any other questions or face further difficulties please get back to us.

Hi Rob,

Thank you for contacting us.

I want to apologize but we are still unable to reproduce this issue and the only report for it is coming from this thread. With that said the workaround I can recommend you is to remove our Visual Studio Extensions. I want to assure you that removing the Extension is not going to affect building or compiling projects that contains Telerik controls. Please check this step that should guide you through:

Open Visual Studio
Go to Tools -> Extensions and Updates...
Under the Installed tab search for Telerik ASP.NET Core VSExtensions
Click on the Uninstall button
Restart Visual Studio

[EDIT]

I have visual studio 2015 Enterprise Update 3.
When i installed Telerik R1 2017 on it i faced that error too.
By Disabling extensions from Tools -> Extensions and Updates...error vanished.
What is going on & why Telerik has no solution for this?
==============================================
"In VisualStudio 2015 -> Tools -> Extensions and updates ->
Online: Search for the string: "Fix NuGet GetFullVsVersionString must be
called on the UI thread" and install the given fix."

I did it and found nothing.
Where is that extension to fix this issue?
Why did they remove it from marketplace?

Hello I'm facing the same issue.

I need to migrate 30 reports from an old App (Because old app has some code in Silverlight and the last version of VS to support it is VS2015) I'm using VS 2015 Enterprise Update 3 and Reporting R1 2021 SP2 (15.0.21.326).

If I don't use the Report Upgrade Wizard when opening this is shown:
Value cannot be null. Paramater name: Instance (In another thread points because is not using the current Telerik Tools)

So OK let's upgrade then this error:
GetFullVsVersionString must be called on the UI thread.

As Zakhaliya I tried all StackOverflow workarounds and none is working, The suggested extension fix (was removed long time ago)
installed/reinstalled/deleted the Nuget Package Manager and nothing is working

Because reports are inside a Project Library I need to open it inside VS2015.
