I developed a desktop application with Visual Studio 2010 and Crystal Reports 13_0_4. I generated the setup for my application, and the application runs but the crystal report is not working.
When I install Crystal Reports manually, I get an error stating
You must install Visual Studio before installing Crystal Reports
I don't want to install Visual Studio for the client. Otherwise they can open the framework and do the coding for my application. How can I otherwise allow them to view the report?
You don't have to install manually the crystal report. Just add it like a prerequisite in your setup project, then it will download automatically.

My Crystal report is in a separate location. I want to show that the report using web app.i has already installed CR runtime and Crystal report for a visual studio in my local machine. But when I host it on my server I need to install CR runtime and Crystal report for visual studio. But I was unable to install the Crystal report for visual studio because there is no visual studio installed in a server. Give error "you must already install visual studio 2010 or other. How can I solve this?
Is there any way to install crystal report for Visual studio without installing visual studio
I found a solution. we have to install some nuget packages.First install [Install-Package CrystalReports.Engine -Version 13.0.3500] and install related dependencies.
Follow the following link
https://www.nuget.org/packages/CrystalReports.Engine/
Then you have to install CR Runtime
Change the the bitness of project to 64
Previously I installed crystal report with visual studio 2015, that crystal report version is 13.0.20..
Now I want to install crystal report another windows server 2012, but without visual 2015..
I am looking for the same version of crystal report, but without visual studio
You can install Crystal Report 13.0.20 without visual studio.
Just double click on exe file of Crystal Report 13.0.20 then you will get installation window. I hope will work. If you don't have Crystal Report 13.0.20 so download from here

Report is created in visual studio 2010 and have installed SAP crystal report, version for visual studio 2010 v13.0.3 and SAP crystal report runtime engine for .NET framework(64-bit).
I've crystal report 13.0.2000 that I'm having problem with. When I open a report and change the page setup settings like margins,orientation, etc and try to save it, it crashes, saying program stopped working.
My solution is to remove all printers in my computer. This issue comes when printer driver is corrupted.
I have installed VS2012 Ultimate on a fresh PC. I tried adding the Crystal Reports file in my project but there is no crystal report .crt Item avaliable into Add New Item menu of the VS2012
Is there a version for VS2012? or do I have to install an extra setup file for crystal reports which is redundant since I already have VS2012 installed.
Here it is! - SP 25 works on Visual Studio 2019, SP 21 on Visual Studio 2017
SAP released SAP Crystal Reports, developer version for Microsoft Visual Studio
You can get it here (click "Installation package for Visual Studio IDE")
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.
New In SP25 Release
Visual Studio 2019, Addressed incidents, Win10 1809, Security update
This post is right from SAP on Sep 20, 2012.
In short, they are still working on a release of Crystal Reports that will support VS2012 (including support for Windows 8) It will come in the form of a service pack release that updates the version currently supporting VS2010. At that time they will drop 2010/2012 from the name and simply call it Crystal Reports Developer.
If you want to download that version you can find it here.
Further, service packs etc. when released can be found here.
I would also add that I am currently using Visual Studio 2012. As long as you don't edit existing reports they continue to compile and work fine. Even on Windows 8. When I need to modify a report I can still open the project with VS2010, do my work, save my changes, and then switch back to 2012. It's a little bit of a pain but the ability for VS2010 and VS2012 to co-exist is nice in this regard. I'm also using TFS2012 and so far it hasn't had a problem with me modifying files in 2010 on a "2012" solution.
There is also someone who managed to modify CR for VS.NET 2010 to install on 2012, using MS ORCA in this thread: http://scn.sap.com/thread/3235515 . I couldn't get it to work myself, though.
"SP25 work on Visual Studio 2019" is an exaggeration. It is extremely unreliable and should be avoided at all costs. I currently have to maintain a second development environment with V2015 for report development.
I have downloaded and installed Crystal Report "CRforVS_13_0_4.exe" for Visual Studio 2010, professional edition. But it not seems to work with visual Studio. Whenever i try to open Tool Box window, OR try to add Crystal Report (.rpt) in to the project It gives me following error.
[Window Title]
Microsoft Visual Studio 2010
[Main Instruction]
Microsoft Visual Studio 2010 has stopped working
[Content]
A problem caused the program to stop working correctly. Please close the program.
[Close the program] [Debug the program]
I checked that as soon as "Crystal Reports Tool Package" loads in to the Tool Box this error pop out. I also monitored the files while installation and found that it seems that its 64 bit version. But i am haveing 32 bit win7 OS. But i couldn't find out 32 bit version.
I installed "CRforVS_redist_install_32bit_13_0_3.zip" but, it not support designer. and i got .mhtml extension while adding crystal report(.rpt)
Thanks.Any input will be appreciated,
After more search I downloaded the latest version of Crystal Reports for VS2010 (Support Pack 5 (v. 13.0.5.x)) and it worked fine for me. Here is the link to download crystal reports
