Visual Studio crashes on Microsoft.Build.ni.dll

I am running Windows 7 Pro x64, Visual Studio 2012 Ultimate. I recently installed Telerik's OpenAccess platform for a project. It was working fine yesterday, but today I can't open any project. Websites open, but can't build.

I have gone back to a previous System Restore, still didn't work. I uninstalled Telerik, still didn't work. I uninstalled Visual Studio, still didn't work. I'm guessing that Visual Studio doesn't do a very good clean uninstall. Any suggestions on how I can fix this? Would a full/complete uninstall/reinstall (following these instructions) make it work? Or should I go back to a system image that I have from last week?

Details:

This is the activity Log where it fails:

Try cleaning your registry and temporary files using a cleaner software such as CCleaner – Aishwarya Shiva

I'm trying the CCleaner. It is a new hard drive. Why do you say that? – scojomodena
@AishwaryaShiva - I cleaned out the registry and removed everything from Temp Files, still no luck. Any other suggestions? – scojomodena

This won't help anyone else, but I figured I would put it out there, maybe someone else will come up with a better solution. Sadly, I wasn't able to make anything work. I ended up having to go back to a previous system image. Thank goodness for backups!

We'll see what happens next time I have to add a VS plug-in.
