error creating a new solution vs2010

Question

I have a weird error when I try to create a new solution in vs2010, it started today...

I get this error no matter what kind of solution I create, and in every directory on the disk:

Any idea about the reason I get this message?

I tried to search the error text on google but I only found posts about errors while converting an old solution file which wasn't helpful. Also tried running vs2010 as administrator, but nothing works, I still get this message

EDIT:

I checked the space left on my disk (26 GB), tried other names for the solution, tried to create a text file in the folder and it works

One of the most common problems is one or more plugins/addons that either fail them self or fail if loaded in combination with other plugins/addons/vsipackages.

To work out if that is true in this case do the following:

1. start a visual studio 2010 prompt
2. type devenv /Safemode
3. Check stabiity of VS2010
4. Works? unload/remove plugins until you have a stable installation
5. Doesn't work? Contact MS Support

The msdn documentation on devenv switches
