Ribbon causes Visual Studio to restart

I have used the Ribbon control successfully in the past but lately when I add it to a new project Visual Studio closes and reopens as soon as I switch to the design window. I have followed the steps on "Getting Started with Windows Forms Ribbon" as follows:

Dragged RibbonControAdv control onto Form1
Checked that references are there for Syncfusion.Shared.Base and Syncfusion.Tools.Windows
Changed the code on Form1 to:

using Syncfusion.Windows.Forms.Tools;

public partial class Form1 : RibbonForm

As soon as I switch back to the Form1 design windows Visual Studio closes and restarts and I am back to Square One.

I am using the latest version of Visual Studio Community as well as the Syncfusion 18.2.0.44.

Any suggestions?
