Halleluiah! The bridge is still broken but using the work around that MafiaMoe mentioned by using Solution Explorer to import the file works!!!! It's strange but for some reason I feel much less of an urge to pull my hair out and punch walls.

I also encountered this. I have installed Unity 2018.2.0f2 personal with linux build support(and everything else also) and am working via tortoise svn version control on a project started a year ago in some other unity version. (donno if that info helps).
Will try the above mentioned workaround.
Also monodevelop methods are highlited in Visual studio as errors, but the code compiles and the project runs ...
I am now updating visual studio, to see if that helps.

OK, fully uninstalling and reinstalling all installations of Unity and VS2017 has fixed the issue for me.

@Alex_may : Workaround for me is to add any new files to the Visual Studio project manually, given one already exists to start from.
eg. Inside Visual Studio, right-click on the folder that has the new .cs files and select 'Add > Existing Item', then select all the new files.
Update* Reinstalling Unity 2018 with or without Linux build support did not fix this.

This issue is also cropping up with any project opened using 2018.1.0f2. This may have been introduced when adding Linux build support to the install.
All of my projects opened using previous versions of Unity function normally.

Is there a workaround for this?
