After installed Visual Studio 2010 Professional I am getting an error - visual-studio-2010

I have installed VS 2010 Ultimate on Windows 7 Enterprise. It is not working. So I uninstalled that and re-install VS 2010 Professional.
But I am getting an error whenever I open Visual Studio 2010.
Error:
The 'Visual Studio Tools for Applications v3.0 Shell Integration Package' package did not load correctly.
The Problem may have been caused by a configuration change or by the installation of another extension. You can get more information by running the application together with the log parameter on the command line, and then examining the file
'C:\users\Name\AppData\Roaming\Microsoft\VisualStudio\10.0\ActivityLog.xml'.
How to fix this issue? Please help me.

I ran Procmon from Sysinternals on devenv.exe with a filter set to capture file system events only, and only not equal 'success' results.
This brought up some results pointing at a directory where devenv.exe attempted to load Microsoft.VisualStudio.Tools.Applications.Package.dll from. None of those directories contained that file.
Searched for that file and found it under C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Visual Studio 11.0\Common7\IDE\PrivateAssemblies\Microsoft.VisualStudio.Tools.Applications.Package.dll That location was not among the directories captured by Procmon.
Copied the file to the first location indicated by the error captured by Procmon and voila, problem solved.

Visual Studio Exe App compilation path change

I just want to change the exe file Visual Studio compilation path change
I am doing it like this now. i created a bat file that copied file. I have added visual studio build events. I wonder if there is an easier way.
meanwhile the exe file is being copied to the network drive
I had this problem in a different context (Elixir/Phoenix, Rust), but the root cause was the same: cl.exe could not be found during compilation.
My setup was:
Windows 10, x64
Visual Studio Community 2017 already installed, but only for C# development
For some reason the solution with installing the Visual C++ Build Tools (as #cozzamara suggested) did not work. Stops during installation with some obscure error message. Guess it did not liked my existing Visual Studio installation.
This is how I solved it:
Start up the Visual Studio Installer
Check the Desktop development with C++ (screenshots here)
Execute following command before compiling:
C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Visual Studio\2017\Community\VC\Auxiliary\Build\vcvars64.bat
From this on the command cl.exe works. Alternatively (and more conveniently for development) start the application 'Developer Command Prompt for VS 2017' or 'x64 Native Tools Command Prompt VS 2017'.
Share
I solved the problem by writing code like this in the Post build field, I just ensured that the exe was copied to the field I wanted
COPY $(TargetPath) "\x.x.x.x\ortak\yakup\TestApp.exe"
pause
$(TargetPath) = It gives the location where the exe exited, along with the exe name
"C:\yakup\project\TestApp.exe" like

Issue when running an exe file in Visual Studio 2010

Whenever I try running an exe file in Visual Studio 2010 I get the error message: the program can't run because vcruntime140.dll is missing from your computer. And the same message for ucrtbased.dll. I downloaded both of the dlls, but I dont know where to place them within the system files so that this would be solved.

microsoft.service.hub error after installing Visual Studio Community edition

After re-installing Visual Studio Community edition I've been getting this error.
I get the error right after the splashscreen shows
Could not load file or assembly 'Microsoft.ServiceHub.Client'
Please open File Explorer and search this file name to verify this file is existing on your computer or not.
Meanwhile, you can have a try with the following to troubleshoot this issue:
Clear all folders and files under the folder: %LocalAppData%\Microsoft\VisualStudio\15.0_xxx\ and restart the VS 2017 to check it again.
Open cmd and navigate to the VS 2017 installation folder like C:\Program Files(x86)\Microsoft Visual Studio\2017\xxx\Common7\IDE and run the command: devenv /safemode to run it as safe mode, then check if the installed extensions caused this issue.
Re-run the VS 2017 installer as administrator and choose Repair to repair it

Visual Studio 2017 hangs at "initializing templates..."

This is a brand new installation of VS2017 (latest version at the time of writing - 15.1 (26403.0)) on a fresh installation of Windows (Windows 10 Enterprise 64-bit) with no extensions or addons included yet. When going to File New Project VS simply sits at 'initializing templates...'. I've waited for twenty minutes before having to force quit the application.
I have tried the command line argument for devenv /installvstemplates which does not help.
Any help is appreciated, let me know if you need any additional info.
Update
I continued troubleshooting the issue. I ran VS as administrator with logging and noticed that these are the final logged entries when attempting to load templates:
Found templates with duplicate template ids at "C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Visual Studio\2017\Professional\Common7\IDE\ProjectTemplates\CSharp\Windows\1033\ClassLibrary_WorkerRole.vstemplate" and "C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Visual Studio\2017\Professional\Common7\IDE\ProjectTemplates\CSharp\Windows\1033\ClassLibrary\csClassLibrary.vstemplate"
Found templates with duplicate template ids at "C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Visual Studio\2017\Professional\Common7\IDE\ProjectTemplates\CSharp\1033\SharedProject\SharedProject.vstemplate" and "C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Visual Studio\2017\Professional\Common7\IDE\ProjectTemplates\CSharp\Windows\1033\SharedProject\SharedProject.vstemplate"
Found templates with duplicate template ids at "C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Visual Studio\2017\Professional\Common7\IDE\ProjectTemplates\VisualBasic\Windows\1033\ClassLibrary_WorkerRole.vstemplate" and "C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Visual Studio\2017\Professional\Common7\IDE\ProjectTemplates\VisualBasic\Windows\1033\ClassLibrary\classlibrary.vstemplate"
Error! Unable to access file (%USER%\AppData\Roaming\Microsoft\VisualStudio\15.0_ea1722b9\ProjectTemplatesCache\cache.bin)
Even though this was a fresh install on a clean system I did attempt an uninstall and reinstall of VS2017 which did not work. I even selected less options in an attempt to mitigate the duplicate template ID warnings.
I ended up having to uninstall VS 2017 again. Uninstall Windows 10 SDK (of which I had two versions for some reason). Run VS 2017 installer as administrator.
This time it installed and completed with warnings, the warning was that it did not install the .Net Core SDK because it says I already have a version, though I don't see it. It's possible I'll have to deal with this later as there may be a hung registry key.
Still, I loaded up VS 2017 and the templates initialized immediately. So this problem is resolved.

Installation of the Multi-Device-Hybrid CTP failed to add anything to VS

I installed the CTP of the multi-device-hybrid apps and the new app templates didn't show up in VS. The add-in also didn't show up in the Extensions & Updates list in VS. Trying to Uninstall it claimed to work instantly, but didn't uninstall anything.
This is an odd situation and should generally not occur. It seems the VSIX file got copied over but was not installed correctly.
Here's the work around (run using an administrative command prompt):
"C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Visual Studio 12.0\Common \IDE\VSIXInstaller.exe" /admin /uninstall:MultiDeviceHybridApps..db151788-9b27-49db-a5e2-d25a2653eb83
This removed the broken entries for the VSIX from the previous failed attempt to install. Following this, issue another command:
"C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Visual Studio 12.0\Common7\IDE\VSIXInstaller.exe" "%localappdata\Microsoft\MultiDeviceHybridApps\Microsoft.VisualStudio.MultiDeviceHybridApps.vsix" /admin
At this point, the VSIX should be installed successfully and the templates will become available in Visual Studio.
