MonoDevelop Wont Open
On my Windows 10 laptop when I want to edit a script I just created. I double-click on the script and it wont open but it has the loading arrow. I have tried to completely remove Unity and reinstall it but I was completely unsuccessful, tried updating .NET Framework.. still not working, I've tried to also download Xamarin but that crashes every time I open the damn software :/ ... I don't want to use Visual Studio since on my laptop it takes a long time to booth up and that's time taken out of my production in Unity so keeping it to MonoDevelop is the best option for me.
I had the same problem, I tried uninstalling, clearing out things in the registry and even adding a dll other forums said was missing. Nothing worked. I finally found a log in AppData/Local for mono develop that explained what was going on. I couldnt find a file in AppData/Roaming. Simply remove the monodevelop folders in AppData/Roaming and it fixed everything.
Here is the error i was getting:
ERROR [2017-09-22 10:07:49Z]: Error loading properties from file 'C:\Users\me\AppData\Roaming\ MonoDevelop-Unity-5.0\Config\MonoDevelopProperties.xml': System.Xml.XmlException: '.', hexadecimal value 0x00, is an invalid character.

Hope this helps you. NOTE: if you have tried to open a few times you may want to open the tast manager and kill the monodevelop process(s) that are running or restart your pc. each time i tried to open it, it would start a a new task but not open.
