Answer 1

I resolved this issue by doing a simple workaround and here is the solution.

Right-click the XAML file in the Solution Explorer and select

Solution 1: "Open With... > Source Code (Text) Editor".

and in another time this also worked for me:

Solution 2: "Open With... > Source Code (Text) Editor with Encoding"

Actually, I found that for me it even worked by simply choose: Solution 2: "Open With... > Automatic Editor Selector (XML)" and then reopening VS.

I also found that the problem began after editing .xaml file outside of VS, by right-clicking the file and choose "Edit".
