Suddenly I can't debug or open any apps I made in Visual Studio 2012

Hey I have a really weird problem with Visual Studio... 

I made this Windows 8 app that I've made some good progress on, now one day when I try to debug, I get a nasty error! First the splash screen for the app shows, but then it just freezes there. If I close it down an error pops up (see screenshot below). Since I've managed to debug it earlier the app shows in my home screen but when I try to launch it from there it just opens and then closes right away.

The error says something about an activation failure, but I have no clue what the problem might be. I got Visual Studio 2012 from Dreamspark and I have one of those developer licenses. I even tried renewing mine manually but it said I already have one and there is nothing wrong with it. So I don't really get what this activation failure might be.. I've checked the NTFS ownership of the files and they belong to me, I can't think of anything else that would cause a problem this random.
