I have installed Visual Studio Express for Windows 8 on my development system. When I add a project for TDD and build the solution, the IDE crashes -- apparently it is unable to find any tests (even though they are there in code). The "Test Output" window indicates that it is searching for tests, and then the entire devenv crashes.
This was working correctly using the trial version of Visual Studio 2012 Professional, but since uninstalling that and replacing it with VS Express for Win8 I have had no luck in getting MSTest to work without crashing the environment.
Any ideas as to what I might be missing?
It turned out to be a collision with another process on the computer (Garmin update program). With this process stopped, Test Output works as expected. The problem was fixed in VS2013.

Is there any issues in having VS2008 and VS2012 side by side?
I usually work on VS2012, but now there is a task that requires me to build a solution in VS2008! Before I install VS2008 where VS2012 is already installed I Just want to ensure that this does not cause issues in my Dev env.
I haven't tried installing VS 2008 after VS 2012 but on one of my machines I did it in a more typical way: first VS 2008 then VS 2010 and then VS 2012 (all 3 side-by-side) and it worked OK for me. So I'd expect that worst you might have to do is to re-install VS 2012 afterwards again.
I cannot execute my gtkmm-app any longer in visual studio 2012. It compiles fine but when executing it crasches. I get the error message that MSVCP100D.dll is missing.
I made this app in visualstudio 2010 last spring. OS was windows XP. No problem whatsoever.
Now I have visualstudio 2012 and windows 8.1 and get this error-message.
I dont know what to do? Is there a way to install MSVCP100.dll in the system-folder or could something be done in VS 2012?
I may underline that I just encountetred this problem when compiling and executing my gtkmm-app for the first time since the platform change and IDE-update. Ordinary console-applications no problems whatsoever.
If you also have time/knowledge - what is the purpose of this dll-file?
You are getting this error probably because you changed your compiler.
What you can do is to either recompile gtkmm with current Visual Studio or download pre-compiled binaries and rebuild your application.
Option 2 is to install Visual Studio 2010 back and forget about Visual Studio 2012.
If you want both latest Visual Studio and gtkmm 3 then...
It's not an easy task, and it's hard to answer your question in detail here, so
Here is an tutorial to let you get started compiling/installing gtkmm 3 in Visual Studio 2013 for Windows 7 and later:
In my Visual Studio 2012, all of a sudden the javascript debugger stopped working. I tried the following options and nothing worked.
a. Repair Visual Studio 2012
b. Added 'debugger' in javascript file and it throwed the follow message,
"Unable to attach to the crashing process. The correct version of pdm.dll is not registered. Repair your Visual Studio installation, or run 'regsvr32.exe "%CommonProgramFiles%\Microsoft Shared\VSDebug\pdm.dll"'
Please advise how to proceed further. My system configuration is,
Windows 7 64 bit
IE 8
Visual Studio 2012 premimum.
Thanks in advance,

I developed a project in nodejs on Visual Studio 2013 full edition with Nodejs plugin of Codeplex (http://nodejstools.codeplex.com/).
It always worked fine till, one week ago, when I decided to upgrade (as suggested) the Nodejs pluging. Now Visual Studio crash every time I open a project in nodejs and print me this alert:
No problem with other type of projects.
My PC has a quad core i7 CPU, 16GB ram and the SO is Windows 8.1.
I solved this.
Node.js tools plugin on VIsual Studio suggested me to update it to the lastest beta version.
I innocently accepted and then started my problem.
I has been necessary to remove the plugin and install the suggested one from http://nodejstools.codeplex.com/ to solve the problem.
You cannot uninstall it from the extension view of VS (tools->Extensions and updates) 'cause it a SO application, therefore it must be removed from Control Panel->uninstall programs.
I am using Visual Studio 2012 Ultimate 11.0.60315.01 Update 2 under Windows 7 Pro. I have been doing some non visual development with it for a while with no issues. I have just now created a fresh web forms application. As soon as I go to open the Site.master in "Design View" in the HTML editor VS freezes.
The freee results in me being unable to click elsewhere in the IDE (Menu's, Solution Explorer) etc. so it does not look as if the IDE has hung, rather that it has just stopped responding. The same behaviour is evident if I run devenv.exe /SafeMode. CPU usage is minimal and I have plenty of RAM available.
Any suggestions on how I diagnose and resolve this issue?
Running VS as administrator seems to alleviate the problem.
