I currently have installed Visual Studio 2017 Enterprise version 15.9.15 (the latest available in Visual Studio Installer). I want to downgrade to version 15.9.11 due to some issues in my project. I have the installer for 15.9.11 but every time I run the installer, Visual Studio Installer is trying to install the 15.9.15 version.
I've tried with different versions but Visual Studio Installer always switches to 15.9.15 regardless. Is there any other way to downgrade? I've searched online but with no luck.
Only Visual Studio 2019 is present in VSIXInstaller, Visual Studio 2017 is missing and when I want to install the extension specifically for Visual Studio 2017 I can't do that
I believe this issue crops up due to the 'Visual Studio Extension File' not having the appropriate supported VS Version Numbers specified in the '.vsixmanifest'.
(Changing the supported Version Number range will allow support for previous or future versions of Visual Studio.)
Here is a Link to an answer of mine which covers the issue and resolution. (Which has a worked example of allowing VS 2015 where only VS 2012 was supported)
I am trying to download the Microsoft Visual Studio 2017. I first downloaded Build Tools for Visual Studio 2017 from https://visualstudio.microsoft.com/visual-cpp-build-tools/ . Running it does not give me the option of installing Microsoft Visual Studio 2017.
Any previous versions of VS can no longer be installed with the VS installer. Here's a link Microsoft's page for older VS versions: https://visualstudio.microsoft.com/vs/older-downloads/
Hope this helps!
Good morning,
I have installed in my PC (Windows 10) Visual Studio 2015.3 and Visual Studio 2017 RC, both of them with a lot of things installed on.
Now, that Visual Studio 2017 is finally out, I want to have only and don't have Visual Studio 2017 RC or the "old" Visual Studio 2015.
I search over internet and I find how to have an off-line installation of Visual Studio 2017. Now I don't know which is the best solution between:
Uninstall All plugin like resharper or so on, restart, uninstall Visual Studio 2017 RC, Restart, Uninstall Visual Studio 2015.3, restart, install Visual Studio 2017, install all plugin
Install Visual Studio 2017, update all plugin, uninstall Visual Studio 2017 rc, uninstall Visual Studio 2015.3
Or other...is there someone that have a simil issue?
Thanks
VS 2015:
You don't have to uninstall VS 2015, and if you want to uninstall it, you can do it later, because it is completely independent from VS 2017.
VS 2017 RC:
Additionally to the update, of course it is possible to do a fresh install.
This is what I would do at least for my main development system.
Updates can be more error-prone than new installations (Consider this for example):
Can't update Visual Studio 2017 RC
If you prefer a fresh install I would take your sequence 1 (but let VS 2015, at least until VS 2017 was successful installed).
Edit: Just install the current version of Resharper instead of using old versions. Resharper for VS 2017 was not released the same day as VS 2017 itself, but some weeks later.
First: versions of Visual Studio work side by side, they do not upgrade. If you wish to remove VS2015 then you need to uninstall it.
Second: if you start up your VS2017 RC it will prompt you to update. The updater will upgrade from RC to RTM.
