Visual Studio 2019--Exception from HRESULT 0x80041fe4
Cora - I encountered the same issue and your steps worked. After VS2019 created the solution folder, I closed it and relaunched it. The second time through, creating the solution and project using exactly the same name it successfully created the solution and project.
I encountered the same error when trying to create a C# console app project. I used the steps in JJ Lay's answer to work around the issue. To be clear, these are the steps that I used:
- Attempt to create a C# console app project (for example, named "TestProj" in Visual Studio 2019
- Encounter 'Exception from HRESULT 0x80041fe4'
- Close Visual Studio 2019
- Open Visual Studio 2019
- Use the same exact steps and name as in step 1 (for example, "TestProj") and try to create the project again
- Project is created successfully this time
