Can anyone suggest if it is possible to install VS 2015 on my dev machine?
It should not disturb the existing VS 2010 and VS 2013 versions.

I'm trying to install regular version (not preview) of Visual Studio Community by using Visual Studio Intaller. In it, I can see list of versions that are installed and available, but all of these versions are preview. My installed versions are Visual Studio Community 2017 Preview and Visual Studio Community 2019 Preview. Versions that are available to be installed are Visual Studio Enterprise and Professional 2017 and 2019 Preview.
How can I install Visual Studio Community 2017 (or 2019) that is not preview version?
Please download the VS community 2017 installer and run this installer as administrator, then check the available version again.
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.
How can I uninstall my Visual Studio 2015 completely and and install Visual Studio 2013 instead?
I think i have to uninstall some components after uninstalling my Visual Studio 2015 but i don't know which.
I don't see why you'd want to do this... but it's not too hard.
To uninstall Visual Studio 2015 from a Windows machine, just run this command in CMD (credit to imarktu):
D:\vs_ultimate.exe /uninstall /forc
The link to install Visual Studio 2013 is here: https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=44914
Is there any reason to keep Visual Studio 2013 installed after installing Visual Studio 2015? If I'm collaborating with someone using VS2013, are there any known problems if I use VS2015?
I don't see any reason to keep VS 2013. VS 2015 opens the same projects without problem.
I worked on the same project from 2 computers, one had VS 2013, other 2015 and didn't have any problem.
I have a Windows 8.1 computer with Visual Studio Community 2015 installed and no other version of Visual Studio. I want to install Visual Studio Community 2013 because this is required to use C++ with Unreal Engine 4. But I get
this error message when I try to install.
So I restarted my computer, and the same error message still shows up. I have tried installing from an executable from the Visual Studio webpage, and from a button in Unreal Engine 4 that opens the Visual Studio 2013 installer. What could be the problem? Thanks.
From memory, you're supposed to be able to install multiple versions of visual studio, provided you install them chronologically.
Make a backup.
Then try uninstalling VS 2015. Then installing VS 2013, then re-installing VS 2015.
Better yet, do this in a virtual machine.
- Additionally; A virtual machine will allow you to install VS 2013 in isolation, so that you won't need to uninstall VS 2015.
