I encountered the same issue.

The problem starts when you upgrade the DotNetCompilerPlatform to version 1.0.1.

To work around this issue you can downgrade to version 1.0.0 using the NuGet package manager.

EDIT: If you uninstall Microsoft.CodeDom.Providers.DotNetCompilerPlatform AND Microsoft.Net.Compilers, and then install the DotNetCompilerPlatform (has a dependency on the Microsoft.Net.Compilers package so it will automatically install that) package again the error disappears for good so it seems.

Still not sure what happens under water but I can work again!
