Visual Studio 2010 x64 Compiler on Windows 10 - windows

I've installed Visual Studio 2010 Express but I need the x64 compiler toolset. I can not install the compiler toolset with the Windows 7.1 SDK on my Windows 10 machine, it says ".NET Framework 4 is not installed".
How can I get the x64 compilers of Visual Studio 2010?

For me it worked with the following steps (older Visual Studio version can be downloaded through https://www.visualstudio.com/vs/older-downloads/ (required login))
Install Microsoft Visual Studio 2010 Express (en_visual_studio_2010_vc_express_web_installer_x86_516528)
Install Microsoft Visual Studio 2010 SP1 (mu_visual_studio_2010_sp1_web_installer_x86_651694)
Install Microsoft SDK (from https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=8279). Note that when running the installer a warning will appear saying that "some components cannot be installed". Just ignore this (press OK) and continue with the installation using the default settings. Note that the 64-bit C++ compiler is not installed at this point.
Install KB2519277 (from https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx%3Fid=4422).
Both the 32- and 64-bit Visual Studio 2010 C++ compilers should now be installed.
Note that I'm not sure if all the above steps are actually necessary and if the order is strictly relevant (e.g. it might also work without installing SP1 or installing SP1 later) but this is what worked for me.

I found an installer for VS 2010 Professional on CNet: http://download.cnet.com/Microsoft-Visual-Studio-2010-Professional/3000-2212_4-10618634.html It installed the x64 compilers as well.

CUDA 7.0 installation not detecting Visual Studio 2013 Express

I am trying to install CUDA 7.0 on my laptop. It's Windows 7 64-bit with Visual Studio for Desktop 2013 Express. I get the error message "No supported version of Visual Studio was found." In the CUDA documentation it specifies that VS 2013 is supported (however it doesn't mention the Express version). Any advice please?
Visual Studio 2013 Express is not a supported version for CUDA 7.0.
The supported versions are listed in the windows getting started guide.
Switch to a supported version.
If you are looking for a "free" Visual Studio version, use Visual Studio 2013 Community Edition. This has some advantages anyway, over the express versions:
64-bit compiler support
VS Plugin support (so you can use nsight VSE, although the warning message you received is not unique to nsight VSE. The CUDA 7 installer will report that.)

Is Visual Studio 2005 compatible with windows 8.1 64 bit?

I haven't tried installing it either on windows 8.
I need to modify a program which uses a crystal report 2005 (w/c i think is included on the vs2005 professional installer)
It should work just fine after installing the required service packs and patches:
Visual Studio 2005
Visual Studio 2005 SP1
Visual Studio 2005 Update
for Vista
If you are connecting to TFS to get the sources, you might need to install more, see this blog post for details.

Visual Studio 2010 x64 on university msdn

In our university MSDN(http://msdn.miet.ru) visual studio 2010 only x86 version. Can I install this on Windows 7 SP1 x64? If no, please give me link to MSDN Visual Studio 2010 x64. If posible professional version.
I believe VS2010 has only 32-bit version and technically there should not be a reason to not be able to install this on a 64-bit Windows OS.

VS2008 on Windows 7 RTM with x64 compiler broken

I am having trouble getting x64 compilation to work on Windows 7 RTM (64-bit) with Visual Studio 2008 Professional (both with and without SP1). I have not installed the Windows 7 SDK, as Microsoft suggests might be the issue. The problem is that there are no x64/64-bit choices in the Configuration Manager of Visual Studio.
I do not have the "Microsoft Visual C++ Compilers 2008 Standard Edition" suggested in the link above installed on my computer. Any ideas what might fix this?
I have checked that I have the x64 compiler and tools installed with Visual Studio.
Solution found: Uninstall VS completely and reinstall. Issue resolved after SP1 installed (again). Very strange.
Are you using VS 2008 Express Edition?
You can add the x64 targets to the build configuration manually by downloading the Windows SDK (which include all the x64 compilers/linkers/libs/headers/... ) and following the instructions in this link:
http://jenshuebel.wordpress.com/2009/02/12/visual-c-2008-express-edition-and-64-bit-targets/
EDIT
Did you make sure to include the 64 bit toolset as part of the Visual Studio install? This toolset is an optional component that can be disabled during the initial install process. I believe you can add it back in by going through a Visual Studio repair process.
Original Answer
Are you using a clean windows 7 RTM install or did you upgrade from a previous version? There is at least one issue being reported by Visual Studio customers who upgraded an earlier build of Windows 7 to RTM.

Windows 7 Visual Studio 2005 compatibility

I'm now working on RC Windows 7 and installed Visual Studio 2008 Professional edition. But I need to work with Java programs, and so I needed to work with Visual Studio 2005. I installed Visual Studio 2005 SP1 (VS80sp1-KB926747), but I have the following problem:
"The upgrade patch cannot be installed by the Windows Installer service because the program to be upgraded may be missing, or the upgrade patch may update a different version of the program. Verify that the program to be upgraded exists on your computer and that you have the correct upgrade patch."
I previously had the same problem when I installed the Visual Studio SDK, February2007.
I had a similar problem when I was installing Visual Studio 2005 Professional on a Windows 7 machine.
But here is what I did to fix the problem:
Install Visual Studio 2005 Professional
During the install, a window popped up saying that VS2005 might not be compatible with Windows 7. Ignore this warning and continue.
Install Microsoft® Visual Studio® 2005 Team Suite Service Pack 1
VS80sp1-KB926601-X86-ENU.exe
Link: Microsoft® Visual Studio® 2005 Team Suite Service Pack 1
Install Visual Studio 2005 Service Pack 1 Update for Windows Vista
VS80sp1-KB932232-X86-ENU.exe
Link: Visual Studio 2005 Service Pack 1 Update for Windows Vista
Note:
If you try and install #3 before #2, you will end up with a message that says :
"The upgrade patch cannot be installed by the Windows Installer service because the program to be upgraded may be missing, or the upgrade patch may update a different version of the program. Verify that the program to be upgraded exists on your computer and that you have the correct upgrade patch."
Hope it helps.
BBlake is right look at: https://superuser.com/questions/34190/visual-studio-2005-sp1-refuses-to-install-in-windows-7
It looks like you're trying to install SP1 (the patch) without having first installed Visual Studio 2005 (the application). The SP1 install is only for patching an existing installation.
