I am trying to migrate my silverlight applications from version 3 to version 4. I've been running into this problem. when i try to install silverlight4 tools for visual studio 2010
Visual Studio 2010 or Visual Web Developer Express 2010 or Visual Phone Developer Express 2010 that matches the language version of Silverlight Tools 4 must be installed before installation of Silverlight Tools can continue. Silverlight Tools is available in other languages at http://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?LinkId=177432.
I have installed
microsoft visual studio 2010 professional
version 10.0.30319.1.RTMRel
Microsoft .net framework
version 4.0.30319 RTMRel
please help!!!!!
Silverlight tools 4 is available in English, French, German and Japanese. You need to have downloaded the correct language version of the Silverlight Tools (note the language combobox).
If your version of Studio is installed for another language then you could try installing the English Visual Web Developer Express 2010 (it should install fine side-by-side with your standard product) then installing the Tools. I'm not sure that will get you completely to where you'd want to be as far as templates are concerned but it should get you going.
How to determine what failed
If you use the Web Platform Installer to install, it tells you in the log file what happened.
IronSpigot::Main::LogPackageNameAndVersion(): Package Name = Silverlight 4 Tools for Visual Studio 2010
IronSpigot::Main::LogPackageNameAndVersion(): Package Version = 10.0.30319 1033
It will compare these against the values in the following two registry keys:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\VisualStudio\10.0\Setup\VS\BuildNumber\1033
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\VisualStudio\10.0\General\UILanguage
If you have VS.NET 2010 SP1 for en-us, the first will contain '10.0.40219' and the second 1033.
The setup confusingly reports this as a language issue, but if you read carefully it is a language and version issue.
Here's how to work around the version check:
Using regedit, change the first key to 10.0.30319. Run the setup.
Using regedit, change the first key back to 10.0.40219
I recommend reapplying SP1 to be safe, but I'm not sure if it is required.
This other answer has a longer solution which is to uninstall SP1, install the tools, then reinstall SP1.
coudn't find the soulution.
however my issue resolved when i installed the same build version of Visual Studio Premium version.

I am trying to build Mozilla on Windows 7 64bit
I tried to run this start-shell-msvc2015.bat but got this error.
MozillaBuild Install Directory: C:\mozilla-build\

Press any key to continue . . .
I did everything according to their instructions
When in doubt, search Google for the error message. From the first result:
Hallvord R. M. Steen:
To anybody else who might have this problem: it's caused by choices made during installation, and the installer options were somewhat confusing. I don't remember the exact details, but I think the "Default" installation no longer gives you the required scripts - the "Default vs custom" section on https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/e2h7fzkw%28v=vs.140%29.aspx seems to confirm that you need to choose "Custom" during install and enable Visual C++ tools specifically.
Andrew Overholt: You're right, Hallvord. I went back to my VS2015 installation .exe download, clicked "Modify [the existing installation]" and picked "Common Tools for Visual C++ 2015" under "Programming Languages" > "Visual C++".
Also you'll need at least update 3 if you're using the VS2015 Community Edition. From that Mozilla dev docs page:
Once you’re up to date, download and install Visual Studio Community 2015 Update 3 from Microsoft. If you have an earlier version of Visual Studio, you'll need to upgrade; Firefox relies on C++ features that aren't supported in older versions of Visual Studio. Do not accept the default configuration. Instead, select **Programming Languages > Visual C++ > Common Tools for Visual C++ 2015.*
See also this question on Super User.
Furthermore, the MDN docs actually were updated with this info after that report, and indeed the current build instructions contain, in bold:
Be sure to install the "Common Tools for Visual C++ 2015", which requires a customized installation in Visual Studio 2015.
In the prerequisites section.

I tried to solve my problem by using community and enterprise (trial) version of Visual Studio 2015. Couldn't solve it. Hope somebody can help me.
I want to generate a report by using SQL Server Reporting Services (SSRS). In some tutorial I see there are SSAS, SSRS & SSIS under templates | Business Intelligence when a new project is opened in Visual Studio. In my case, I don't see it as shown in the following picture:
If I check (my OS is Windows 10 64 bit) System Settings | System | App & features, I see SQL Server Data Tools 2015 is installed (strangely I have 2 SSDT) as seen in below.
I see similar problem (Missing Reporting Server templates in Visual Studio 2013 + Business Intelligence SSDT) for VS2013, in which the reporter has used 32 bit SSDT tools. Is this valid for VS2015 also? What I should do for VS2015?
I develop the SSRS and SSIS project in Visual studio 2012 and When i open it on visual Studio 2015. both project is not loaded. then I download the SSDT and updated Its start Working
I think this Link help You to find out Your Solution
ssdt bi for the visual studio 2015 stack over flow Answer
Install sql server enterprise or business intelligence ctp 3.3, install VS2015 professional and finally install the latest SSDT.
Uninstall previous SSDT installations.
Download SQL SERVER.
In Visual Studio go to Extensions and Updates and look for SQL SERVER DATA TOOLING. If the update doesn't appear, go to this page in the third point, download the setup for your regional settings.
If it doesn't work tell use what is the exact VS2015 version.
This might be a trivial error in my setup but I cannot seem to find where I went wrong in stalling SSDT 2013 with SQl Server and having the open to create a new database template
please see image
what I expect to be in the list in a sql template with the option to create a new database project
could someone tell me what i'm missing ?
Thanks in advance
For database projects you'll need to install a version of Visual Studio that supports it - in your case it looks like you ran the standalone SSDT-BI installer which installs SSIS, SSAS and SSRS templates. This doesn't include database project templates. What you need is to install one of the VS versions with support - there are 2 Express versions (Express for Web and Express for Windows Desktop) and 3 paid versions (Premium, Pro, Ultimate). Here is a quote from the SSDT blog post explaining this:
Visual Studio 2013 - VS 2013 now has SQL Server tooling built in and shipped as part of the core product. Database Projects, SQL tools (such as schema compare & data compare), and the online experiences through SSOX are all included with the RTM version. We have full project and SSOX support in VS Express for Web and Express for Windows Desktop, so we have discontinued our stand-alone integrated shell offering. We have a component update feed that will use VS Update to push notification to users. To manually check for updates, go to the Tools > Extensions and Updates... menu to open the dialog. We will continue to post announcements on our blog and forum that a release is available and what is included in that update.
What version of Visual Studio 2013 are you using? You need to have either the Ultimate, Premium or Pro version for SSDT (Link).
If you do have the right version of Visual Studio then you may need to re-run the installer and opt in to SQL Server Data Tools during setup.
I had this issue and resolved it several years ago. I needed to reinstall SSMS with Data Tools. Unfortunately I am encountering the same issue now, but luckily I had documented the issue at the time. I am finding that because there are newer versions of both VS and SSMS, it is hard to find the proper downloads.
From my documentation (3 years ago) None of the attempts to correct the Visual Studio install directly (SSDTBI_x86_ENU download from Microsoft) were successful, but once we did a complete reinstall of SQL Server 2014 which included the Data Tools, the needed template was available in the Add New Project dialog, and the previously incompatible projects found in GitHub******Report.sln were now compatible.
I have downloaded and installed Visual Studio Express 2012 for Windows Phone. Is there a way to be able to code WPF apps for Windows too? Can I upgrade Visual Studio, because at the moment I can only create windows phone apps. Haven't found anything on the web.
Thanks in advance!
You need to get Visual Studio Express for Windows Desktop (or a paid SKU) to develop WPF applications.
http://www.microsoft.com/visualstudio/eng/products/visual-studio-express-for-windows-desktop
This version is for Desktop apps.
Did you install "Express for Windows Phone"? Perhaps try "Express for Windows Desktop"?

(must admit I've not tried express in a while, but it looks like they are different installers. I've always found Visual Studio works well side-by-side with different versions these days, so I imagine you can install both.)
I have installed Visual Studio 2010 Ultimate, I customized my installation(I stripped-down C++,J# because I didn't need it)..After the installation the SilverLight did not appear in the installed templates. Do I have to install SilverLight tools separately? Doesn't the VS 2010 Ultimate come bundled with silverlight tools?
I think you missed some option during customize installation, its come with Visual Studio 2010.
You can install separately silverlight tools also.
Probably you've missed something, I don't remember excluding silverlight toolkit during the installation. But my customized installation was successful.
Did you installed service pack 1 update for visual studio? If you didn't I would recommend you to check for Windows Updates.
In any case you can download the tools you need or for silverlight a clean install from here (silverlight get started) but the tools you need are the Silverlight 5 RC Tools for Visual Studio 2010 SP1
