I can't see the Task Runner Explorer option in 'View' -> 'Other Window' menu, I can't figure out why I can't see it, I have Visual Studio Community installed on another computer and the option is visible.
Here is a screenshot :
Anyone have an idea about that ?
It should be in VS 2015 but may have shipped in update so make sure your on the newest version, there is also an extension in the visual studio gallery that's supposed to be for 2013 but should work for 2015 as well.
Edit: for 2015 may be in web extensions package.

I am trying to install Microsoft Azure SDK. I downloaded this version (2.9) of the SDK from here. And I am getting the following error in the picture.
I have Visual Studio 2013 and 2015 installed on my PC. Could it be some sort of compatibility issue. I read on some forum that it won't work if I have different versions of the Azure SDK installed on Visual Studio 2013 and 2015.
But I don't have the SDK installed on any of them. And I can't seem to find any Web Development Feature in the IDE either. Does anyone know how to resolve this?
Given the situation, the issue is most probably that the relevant modules for Web Development weren't installed when Visual Studio was installed. Those modules are not selected to be installed by default.
The solution is to simply re-run the setup and select "Modify".
On the list of modules, go to "Windows and Web Development".
You should get Microsoft Web Developer Tools in the list. Just select that and install. That should do the trick.
#alchemist is right but I had deleted the VS2015 installer long ago (right after installing). So I went to the Control Panel > Programs And Features > Microsoft Visual Studio 2015 Community with Updates > (right-click) > Change
This will bring up the visual studio installer. Click on Modify > Check Microsoft Web Developer Tools > Update.

I have installed Visual Studio 2015 (Professional). But when I open SharePoint 2010 project on VS 2015, it's showing project is incompatible.
Could you please tell any solution or idea to load the project in VS 2015?
Your project is not loading because Microsoft Office Developer Tools is not installed on your machine. You can easily modify your visual studio 2015 by following steps:
Run Visual Studio 2015 Setup File
Click on modify
Find the “Microsoft Office Developer Tools” and select it.
Finally click on Update.
After completing the setup open your project.
When you install VS2015, you do not install the mandatory Office Development Tools for Visual Studio 2015.
Once, you have downloaded and installed those. (Around 78MB) your SharePoint projects should, once again, load up without any errors.

I have VS 2012 and 2013 installed on my system.
I have a 2012 project that I want to get pulled up in VS 2013 when I double-click it from the Windows Explorer.
Is this possible?
If you only want specific slns to open in 2013, you can open the sln file in a text editor, and change the line
# Visual Studio 2012
to
# Visual Studio 2013
Note that it will ask you to upgrade the projects to 2013 when you open it for the first time. If you want all of 2013's compiler features you will have to upgrade, but if you chose not to it will still load in the 2013 IDE and you get some of the IDE related features.
Right click any solution file and select Open with... option. Use Visual Studio Version Selector as the default program to use for Visual Studio solution files.
We developed an application in visual studio 2010 and reports are working fine, when we choose to open the same application through visual studio 2012 Ultimate, reports are not working and when i open .rpt file showing binary format ad also I could not find Crystalreport.rpt in Reporting template in visual studio 2012. After googling it, I have installed
CRforVS_redist_install_32bit_13_0_5 , but doesn't work.
How can i change or edit .rpt file design using visual studio 2012 and want to change the .rpt database name too. Any suggestion or idea to achieve this?
I had the same problem after installing visual studio 2012 and found no answer on the forums. I uninstalled CR yesterday and downloaded again the CRForVS 13.0.5 from here just in case there was a bug in the previous version I downloaded in may and installed it. Then I installed update 3 for Visual studio and everything works fine now.
Cheers

I figure this one out for me.
From SAP Crystal Reports's download site:
Please note: To integrate "SAP Crystal Reports, developer version for Microsoft > Visual Studio" you must run the Install Executable. Running the MSI will not ? >fully integrate Crystal Reports into VS. MSI files by definition are for runtime >distribution only.
By default Windows 10 does not install the 3.5 framework, CR for VS still needs >it. Select it by "Turn Windows feature on or off" and choose both options.
I downloaded the exe, instead of the MSI packages, and it worked for me finally. Helps to read I guess.
I have installed the CRM 2011 SDK addin for visual studio 2012 (ultimate) and am trying to create a XAML Workflow Activity
I have added the CRM Workflow items to the toolbox using these instructions Add Microsoft Dynamics CRM Workflow Activities to the Toolbox
When I try and drop a Workflow on the design surface it say in red text "Could not generate view for Workflow"
Hovering over the text reveals a System.IOException that says "Cannot locate resource workflowdesigner.xaml"
How do I fix this?
You probably need to refer to the assemblies from VS. It's a bit of pain but a healthy conduct. In VS12 it's made a bit easier (finally, after a decade) to copy references from another project and (really, really finally) to refer to several DLLs at the same time.
It's the best practice and prefer conduct. :)
I fixed this by dumping the contents of my CRM SDK bin directory (about 24 assemblies) into C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Visual Studio 11.0\Common7\IDE\PublicAssemblies
Not elegant but obviously there was a dependency in there somewhere.
Ondra is correct, this is a problem with the latest version of the SDK. Version 5.0.9690.3448 of the microsoft.xrm.sdk.workflow.dll does not work, whereas version 5.0.9688.1533 does not present the issue.
I had this issue occur on a XAML workflow that I previously had no problems with, and the issue turned out to be the upgrade of the SDK file.
Visual Studio 2012 Update 2 does not have any effect on this issue.
This example (and whole CRM workflow) under VS works properly only with CRM SDK version 1.0 - latest version 1.1 and version for VS 2012 causes described problem.
OK, I also hit this problem and made it work with your hints, I reached this result:
Changing VisualStudio version had no effect.
Changing the SDK version actually worked!
I am using SDK for CRM 2015 with version of 7.0.0.43 with visual studio 2015 and 2017. You can download it directly or use Nuget For "Microsoft.CrmSdk.Workflow" and "Microsoft.CrmSdk.CoreAssemblies"
SDK for 2018 (8.0.0) and Dynamics 365 (8.2.0.49) did not work.
Also Visual Studio 2012 Update 2 fix this problem
