"Not implemented" when adding multiple projects in VS 2019 v16.11.30 for big (300+ projects) solutions

Description
I updated VS 2019 from 16.11.29, and now the extension won't work. Or, it works only if the number of projects in the Solution is below a certain number. Otherwise, red X marks appear next to each project in the final list box (on the last step, after you click Start) and hovering over an individual red X says Not implemented.
Sometimes, it will work if I delete bin and obj folders, clear the ReSharper caches (I am using ReSharper 2023.2.2), exit Visual Studio, run rd /S /Q %TEMP% twice, and then run taskkill /IM dllhost.exe /F /T twice, and then restart Visual Studio and re-open the Solution.
It's very sporadic; sometimes, it will have a "bad hair day" and give me red X's; other times, it will be fine and I get "green check marks" all the way down.
It seems to not like Solutions containing 300+ projects.
Steps to recreate
- Install Visual Studio 2019 Enterprise v16.11.30
- Open a big solution that contains 300+ projects
- Use this extension to add multiple projects ( can be any number of projects ), with Add Solution Folders check box CLEARED
- Red "X" marks will appear next to added projects. If you hover over a "Red X" mark, it says "Not implemented."
- Repeating steps 1-3 on a solution with less than 300 projects seems to work just fine.
Current behavior
Each project to be added gets a "red X" mark next to it. When I hover over a "red X", it says "Not implemented."
Expected behavior
I should get "green check mark" icons next to each project, and they should all be added to my Solution.
I fixed broken references among the projects I was adding, and it seems to have fixed the issue --- for now. It would be nice, however, if research and development could enhance the UX to allow for a clearer error message.
