Visual Studio: package did not load correctly after update extension.

If you get something similar to this:

package [XamarinAndroidPackage]Source: 'Xamarin.AndroidTools' Description: Method not found: 'Void Mono.AndroidTools.AnalyticsService.ReportContextProperty(System.String[], System.String[])'. System.MissingMethodException: Method not found: 'Void Mono.AndroidTools.AnalyticsService.ReportContextProperty.....

This might be caused by one of the common issues Visual Studio can run into with updating extensions according to https://bugzilla.xamarin.com/show_bug.cgi?id=44162 and it's right!

The solution is to Clear MEF Component Cache! Clearing the ComponentModelCache folder might help.  See step 3 on the following guide:
https://developer.xamarin.com/guides/cross-platform/getting_started/visual_studio_with_xamarin/troubleshooting/uninstall-xamarinvs/ 

Also there is a Visual Studio extension to make you life easier:

This extension clears the MEF cache on disk and lets Visual Studio rebuild it. The reason for clearing the MEF cache is that it can become corrupted. This ususally happens when installing or updating extensions or other Visual Studio components.

Typical errors that can be solved by clearing the component cache are:

  • Could not load package exception
  • Could not load assembly exception
  • Composition error when opening files
  • Missing syntax highlighting of some languages in VS
