Integration of ApexSQL Compare in SSMS causing SSMS 18.8+ to crash (4328922)

Installing the Fundamentals toolkit on a number of workstations and when an Azure SQL Database is queried after logging in with AAD SSMS will crash ~8-10 seconds after displaying results.

SQL Auth does not have the problem.

Users also observed that ApexSQL Compare does not scan the database when connecting as an AAD User. 

WORKAROUND:

uninstall ApexSQL Compare from integrating it into SSMS

ApexSQL Compare is a standalone tool and can use it without integrating it into SSMS

STATUS:

Defect ID: 210623 has been raised and will be fixed in a future version
