Is there any way to customise which languages are installed with Visual Studio 2012? I only want C#, no VB or F# etc.
I'm trying to install Visual Studio 2012 Premium RTM.
The first install page I see this:
and the next I see this:
but there's no option to choose which languages I want to install :-(
I think thats as much customization as your going to get.

According to those links they [Microsoft] removed then brought back the option for customization. And what you see there is all you get. I know my installation of VS 2012 (upgraded express to ultimate) is only taking up 2 gb so IDK why it is saying it needs 6.
I've raised the point on the Visual Studio installation forum, see what comes of it.

So, I was arguing with a great friend of mine about Visual Studio 2012 and Microsoft being able to detect which one you used. According to him if you get your hands on a direct MSDN download of Visual Studio 2012 Professional, and you end up creating an app, like a game or something, and then you submit it to the Windows App Store, they will never know which visual studio version you truly used to develop the App, or if you were the owner of it or not.
Is he right? Because I thought Visual Studio some how left a footprint behind on the .exe file letting Microsoft know about licensing information. Or should I go apologize to him for calling him a f...ing liar.
If you guys say it does leave a print, can you show some proof, or a link to read more about it? Thanks guys.
Your friend is likely correct. Why would MS bother when they make freely available all the tools you need to compile your program. You can build .Net applications without the Visual Studio IDE. See this related question
Is it possible to install a C# compiler without Visual Studio?
How can I find What Update version I have in Visual Studio 2012? (update 1 or 2 or 3). HOw can I go back to update 1 so that I can build .dll which can be supported in windows XP? I am sorry It's not a programming question but highly appreciated for your answer. I'm stuck!
I have a following Error: Unable to load DLL 'xxx.dll': The specified procedure could not be found. (Exception from HRESULT: 0x8007007F)
My Target OS is windows XP: 32 bit .NET 4.0.
Also Same dll works for windows 7 and other so I think there shouldn't be dependency problem.
Help -> About will tell you what update you are running.
As far as I can tell, targeting windows XP is supported from VS 2012 with any update. You just need to make sure the project targets a version of the .NET framework that is supported on Windows XP. (.NET 4 or earlier)
How can I find What Update version I have in Visual Studio 2012?
Open Visual Studio, Click Help, Click About. See Second line.
Mine says "Version 11.0.60315.01 Update 2"
How can I go back to update 1?
(assuming Windows 7)
Control panel > Programs and Features > view installed updates > uninstall the update you want under the Visual Studio 2012 category.
That being said, I have no idea if this solution is actually something you need to do or will fix your problem. It is simply about how to remove the updates. It sounds like you may just need to download the latest .NET framework for XP.
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.

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've been trying to get the .NET Dev Kit and Azure SDK to work with Visual Studio 2012 and am not having much luck. What am I missing?
The Azure SDK installation instructions don't work on VS 2012. When I search for anything Intuit-related from the VS Extension Manager, nothing comes up.
I tried installing from the VS Gallery but then there's no Intuit Anywhere menu in VS as shown in the VS 2010 screen shot. (These instructions are highly suspect, since Intuit has moved away from the "Intuit Anywhere" name. But given that the developer site was overhauled recently I would expect the instructions to be up to date.)
Is there an easy way to get this to work with VS 2012, or am I wasting my time? Am I better off just building everything from scratch? (We have done that in another project, just not with Azure.)
The Plugin for Visual Studio has not been updated for Visual Studio 2012, the last supported version is 2010.
The code that the plugin generates is available as templates and sample code as well.
It includes the Oauth grant and handler pages, as well as the OpenId handlers.

I used to have R# 6 with VS2010 and it was great.
Now I installed yesterday R# 7.1 trial and my VS 2012 became slow to the point I really
want to uninstall R# despite all the heartache involved with it.
Any advices on how to troubleshoot this performance issue?
Please be more specific: what kind of projects do you work with, did you notice which particular actions are slow (for example, opening a solution, invoking code completion (IntelliSense) in JavaScript or something like this). Without details I can only give you these general advises:
Close Visual Studio, try to delete your solution caches (they are usually located near your *.sln file, in folder named like _ReSharper.), open Visual Studio again.
Try to temporaty disable/uninstall all other Visual Studio extensions/plugins.
Try ReSharper 8.0 EAP, maybe your issue is fixed there.
ReSharper has a feature that allows you to profile it (menu ReSharper | Help | Profile Visual Studio). If you know a reproducible slow action, you can invoke this feature, make this action and then send this performance snapshot to JetBrains support (http://www.jetbrains.com/support/resharper/) or open a bugreport at http://youtrack.jetbrains.net/. They could tell you which part of ReSharper is slow and how to disable that part.
