Object reference not set to an instance of an object. (RedGate.SharedSSMS.2019)

Sorry if this is the wrong category.

I have recently upgraded my SSMS to version 19.  When running SSMS and trying to connect to an Analysis Services Server server I now get this error

Object reference not set to an instance of an object. (RedGate.SharedSSMS.2019)

Does anyone have any ideas?

same here, quite annoying since SSMS crashes after the msg pop up

Hi @Tony_Ward

Thanks for your post.

We've identified a problem with the following products causing this error:

• SQL Doc 5.2.17.4123
• SQL Dependency Tracker 3.3.21.4776
• SQL Data Generator 4.5.10.4976
• SQL Data Generator 4.5.11.5037

 A temporary workaround is to uninstall or downgrade to another version.

The developers are currently investigating the issue, I'll update this post as soon as there's any news.

I'm encountering this in SQL Data Compare as well, downgrading to a prior version helps

same here, however, we fixed this issue by getting the latest update of theToolbelt.

Here's the download link for the latest release:

It should fox your issue.
