Can’t Add View from Controller in VS 2015 : “There was an error running the selected code generator”

Try clearing the ComponentModelCache, the cache will rebuild next time VS is launched.

  1. Close Visual Studio
  2. Delete everything in this folder C:\Users\ [your users name] \AppData\Local\Microsoft\VisualStudio\14.0\ComponentModelCache
  3. Restart Visual Studio

14.0 is for visual studio 2015. This will work for other versions also.
