I just installed Visual Studio Community 2015 on my computer and tried to install ODTwithODAC121021 (32bit). Well, the Oracle universal installer tells me it cannot proceed because I have to install Visual Studio first. Can someone tell me how I can persuade the installer that I do indeed have Visual Studio? I'm running everything on Windows Server 2008 R2 in case that helps and I did not install an Oracle client, since I assume that it is included with the ODAC tools. Thank you very much in advance.
The current version of ODT doesn't support Visual Studio 2015.
They will support it after 1 month of VS 2015 RTM
It's now supported, as of 05 October :)

If Visual Studio 2015 (and 2017) are installed from MSDN using a Visual Studio Professional ISO, can it later be upgraded to Enterprise using a new license key? ...or does it require a complete uninstall/reinstall of Visual Studio?
You need to install the enterprise version to obtain it, and VS cannot change the version through the type of your license key and the VS version depends on your installation.
For VS 2015, we can only keep one version on the computer. If you already installed the VS professional 2015, as far as I know, you can directly install run the VS enterprise 2015 installer to install it. After the installation is complete and successful, the professional is auto removed or replaced by the higher enterprise version. You can also try to use the forcibly uninstall command like: vs_professional.exe /uninstall /force to uninstall the professional version.
For VS 2017, please check the VS 2017 Release Notes and it describes Visual Studio Enterprise and Community (among other products) can now be installed side-by-side on the same computer. To make identifying these installations simpler, you can specify a short name or "nickname".
Visual Studio 2015 Enterprise installer should tell you whether you need to uninstall Professional.
Visual Studio 2017 no longer has that restriction, and you can install both Professional and Enterprise side by side.
If you have VS Installer you can easily change versions. Although you need to uninstall the version you have, you can use the same Installer you ran for uninstallation (i.e. VSPro) to Download & install new version (i.e. Enterprise).
I have installed Visual Studio 2013 Pro and then I wanted to install Windows Phone 8 SDK. But it installed Express Edition of VS 2012. Now if I delete VS 2013, what happens with my VS 2012? Can I delete it, because I don't have enough memory for it? Can you help me, please!
They are independent, you can uninstal one without influencing the other.
You can install this version of Visual Studio on a computer that already has an earlier version installed.
but
If you uninstall a version of Visual Studio on a computer that has more than one version installed, the file associations for Visual Studio are removed for all versions.

I have recently installed Windows 8 Preview. I would like to install Visual studio 2012. The problem is VS 2012 is looking for .Net 4.5.x. When I install .Net 4.5.x, it tells me that it is already part of the operating system. Any workarounds ?
The latest Visual Studio RTM versions won't install on Windows 8 Release Preview.
You can try one of RC versions:
Microsoft Visual Studio Ultimate 2012 RC
http://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=29917
Microsoft Visual Studio Express 2012 RC for Windows 8
http://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=29915
To solve the issue download Visual Studio 2012 though Microsoft Dream Spark, rather than any other source i had the same issue on two separate machines.... this fixed both.

I hope this helps everyone.
Thanks Andrew.
Please Format the system and install the RTM Builds Of WINDOWS 8 and VS 2012
Trying to install the Visual Studio 2010 SDK but it aborts with an error saying I don't have Visual Studio 2010 installed. I of course have 2010 installed. I also have the Visual Studio 11 Developer Preview installed. I suspect this might be the issue. Is this known? Is there a workaround (I couldn't find one). Running on Windows 7, 64 bit.
It turns out that there is an SDK and and SDK SP1. If you have VS 2010 SP1 installed (like I have) then only the VS 2010 SDK SP1 will install. Easy as that and nothing to do with VS 11 as I thought.
It's always recommended to install your oldest version of Visual Studio first and move on up to your newest. Uninstall 11 first, then install 2010, and then install 11. You might have better luck than you have so far.
Good luck, and hope this helps.
i'm going to install sql server 2008 on my computer,during preparing the installation there was an error like this:
a previous release of Microsoft Visual Studio 2008 is installed on this computer. Upgrade Microsoft visual studio 2008 to sp1 before installing SQL Server 2008.
So i should upgrade my visual studio to sp1, but i don't know how to do it.
Please help, and Thanks.
Download the installer for SP1 and run it.
It is on this page.
Easier Method
There is a registry trick to overcome this error
Go to
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\DevDiv\VS\Servicing\9.0
rename 9.0 to 9.0old
then click “re run” ,it will solve the problem,but better to install
visual studio 2008 SP1
