Visual Studio Crashing after startup

We are currently running VS Team Explorer 2017 (Version 15.2) in a Citrix environment.  This is running on 2012r2.  We have multiple users that run the system and a few are seeing issues with the application crashing within about 30 seconds after starting up.  It does not appear to be the application directly, but maybe something related to it.  The application actually starts, and if you click fast enough you can actually do things, but after about 30 seconds or so, we get a crash and it closes.

This does not effect all users, just a few.  We have tried resetting their Visual studio parts in the Registry, and Appdata folders, as well as even taking it as far as resetting their profile.  

In the logs I get a .NET crash, and then the Application Error.
