I have been tasked with putting together a development server and client (Windows 10), using Microsoft Visual Studio 6.0 with Visual Interdev, so that a team of developers can debug a very large ASP Classic website. I have studied up and found that Visual Studio 6.0 can be installed on Windows 10, so that takes care of the client side, but I am wondering what version of Windows Server I should use for the development server? I have access to 2003, 2012 R2, 2016, and 2019 versions. The original OS used back in the day appears to have been Windows Server NT.

Today I downloaded Microsoft Visual Studio Express 2012 for Windows 8. But whenever I choose to start a new vb windows store project, it shows me that the project is being created and just after it has been created it shows the message that
Microsoft Visual Studio 2012 For Windows 8 has stopped working. Checking online for solution.
I even read the Microsoft Visual Studio Express 2012 for Windows Desktop has stopped working, VS2010 VS2012 answers but it didn't help.
I have Visual Studio 2013, Visual Basic 2008 and 6.0 installed. I want to create windows 8 store apps.
Is it possible to install an ASP.net website developed with Visual Studio 2005 in a server with Windows Server 2012? Our client is planning to upgrade the server from Windows Server 2003 to Windows Server 2012. Will the application (already developed with VS 2005) run in a 64 bits operating system?
It is possible. Two things to make sure you do is to have the correct .Net version installed on the windows server and when you setup the new site in IIS (assuming IIS) that the application pool is set to allow 32-bit applications.
This will take you through how to enable 32-bit app pools (it is for IIS7 but IIS 8 is the same)

Visual Studio is just a development environment and is intendant of the target server type/version. You can use Visual Studio to develop any .Net application/website no matter where you want to run it. It is all about the server being configured to run a 32-bit .Net application.
I have Visual Studio Express 2013 for Windows 8 apps installed, now i want to upgrade it to also support c# desktop apps.
Can you please help me out in upgrading it so that in the end I want to have only one Visual studio that supports both Windows 8 Store apps + C# desktop apps.
You'd need to buy Visual Studio Professional 2013 if you want a single program to do both.
Microsoft have 3 Express versions:
Express 2013 for Web - (does ASP.NET & ASP.NET MVC web sites)
Express 2013 for Windows - (does Windows 8 and windows Phone apps)
Express 2013 for Windows Desktop - does C# desktop apps (Winforms, WPF)
To do both Windows 8 Store apps and C# desktop apps you need 2 versions of express installed.
The Professional (and higher) versions however can do all these types of project in one application.
See Microsoft for details:
Visual Studio Express versions
Visual Studio Professional NB - it can be bought with or without a MSDN subscription.
Today, on Windows 7, for testing purposes, i first installed Internet Explorer 11, then Visual Studio 2013 Express Desktop, then Visual F# Out of Band Release 3.1.1.
After starting Visual Studio, i ran into misc Issues (scrolling with middle mouse button is broken, clicked links do not open windows, there are no F# templates as this tutorial suggests).
Therefore i want to uninstall this Software again. Here is a list of things which were installed on my System (5+ GB)

And now the Question: I have never before installed such a huge software, but i want my 5GB back - is it safe to uninstall all items of this list or did the Visual Studio installer replace some older files on my system so that some other software may not work anymore if i do?
In general an installation/ uninstallation proccess, provided you follow the procedure defined by the vendor and as long as it is concerning a verified program is never harmful to a system.
Specifically for your Question, if you unistall Visual Studio 2013:
No harm will be done
The other programs you are listing will not get unistalled (e.g .NET 4.5, SQL Express 2012 etc.)
You wont have back your 5GB of space because Visual Studio 2013 is taking about 2 GB
Most of other programs will be still functional (e.g SQL Server,SQl Management Studio)
If you want to have your 5 GB back you have to unistall all the remaining programs. Consider which of them will be of later use (e.g .NET 4.5) as well which take the most space (e.g SQL Express Server 2012)
Uninstalling Visual Studio should work ok, but some of the runtimes and system files will remain after uninstall even if you uninstall everything. This is just how Windows works. Certain files and settings will never be removed if they are installed on the system. They are permanent additions to the system.
I am installing on Windows 8 OS Visual Studio 2010 express for Windows Phone with Async CTP for that I have installed Visual Studio 2010 express for Windows Phone as shown below:
I am now installing Windows Phone SP1 from link http://www.microsoft.com/en-in/download/details.aspx?id=23691
But it is always giving me error as shown below:
How should I use Async CTP. My goal is to use Async and Await in Windows Phone 7.1 application with Visual Studio 2010 and not in Visual Studio 2012?
The Service Pack you try to install is not provided for Windows 8:
Supported Operating Systems:
Windows 7, Windows Server 2003 R2 (32-Bit x86), Windows Server 2003 R2 x64 editions,
Windows Server 2003 Service Pack 2, Windows Server 2008 R2,
Windows Server 2008 Service Pack 2, Windows Vista Service Pack 2,
Windows XP Service Pack 3.
The second bad news: "Using async/await without .NET Framework 4.5" http://blogs.msdn.com/b/bclteam/archive/2012/10/22/using-async-await-without-net-framework-4-5.aspx
In order to use await you need two components:
Visual Studio 2012
Some specific .NET APIs
Maybe you want to use VS Express 2012 or the trial Version of VS 2012: http://www.microsoft.com/visualstudio/eng/downloads#d-2012-editions instead of VS2010?
The new VS 2012 language and library features are
available in Visual Studio Express 2012 for Windows Desktop,
including the async and await keywords in Visual Basic and C#, C++ AMP,
and improvements to C++ 11 Standards conformance.
You can use Express for Windows Desktop with
your Visual Basic and C# applications to target both .NET 4.0 and 4.5.
