Can Visual Studio Community install Office SDK to develop addins? I can start an addin project, but in the add new item menu I don't have the options to add things like Ribbons or other C# items and such. Does this feature only work in the non-community edition? I do have the office SDK installed.
Was able to fix it by installing VS ultimate and checking the Office SDK.

I am new to using Visual Studios Community. I am currently working out of a book called "Head First C#".
The problem is that I cannot find some features that are in the book, such as "Windows Store" (which the book says should be a subcategory under "Visual C#" when one wants to create a new project) or "Basic Page".
Have these features been discontinued? Or do I have to modify my installation in someway using the VS installer?
I am using Visual Studios Community 2017 on a Windows 10 OS.
VS 2017 community supports UWP development. Open the visual studio installer and select modify. There is an update available install that before trying to modify. Make sure the Universal Windows Platform Development workflow is checked and press the update button.

I am working on making a Outlook Add-in for Outlook 2013. The issue is, I use Visual Studio 2010. I did some googling and found that I need the Developer Tool Kit and it lead me here. I installed the tool kit, but I am still not seeing any new Templates. What am I doing wrong, or what can I do to get that Outlook Add-in?
Thanks in advance!
Unfortunately VSTO allows creating version-specific add-ins. VSTO 2010 (Visual Studio 2010 Tools for Office Runtime) is shipped with Visual Studio 2010 Professional edition or above. It supports creation and editing of document- and application-level add-ins for Office 2007 and Office 2010. You need to use later Visual Studio versions for creating COM add-ins for Office 2013. However, you can run solutions in Office 2013 that were created in earlier Visual Studio versions, see Running Solutions in Different Versions of Microsoft Office for more information.
I have installed Visual Studio 2015 Professional and would like to know how/what should I download from the Xamarin website to integrate into VS 2015 Pro to develop Android apps with Xamarin.
Just download the universal installer from their website
During Visual Studio installation, you have the option to select C#/.NET(Xamarin) under Cross-Platform Development.
You can Modify/Repair the Visual Studio install and select Xamarin and any other components (e.g. Android SDK if it was not selected previously, although they can also be installed separately) and update the installation. Install details/reference here
Really simple question:
Where do you find Extension Manager in Visual Studio 2010 for Windows Phone?
I'm trying to install the NuGet extension but.. Just can't seem to find extension manager, looking under the tools menu where I expect it but.. nothing.
Thanks!
The Extension Manager is not supported in Visual Studio 2010 for Windows Phone, so you can't find it.
NuGet is the extension manager that is built into Visual Studio 2012 and is also available for Visual Studio 2010 as a seperate download. It's easy to intall and can be downloaded from nuget.org. Once it's installed adding the Windows Phone Toolkit is as easy as right-clicking on your project and selecting "Managed NuGet packages...".
Extension manager is found in Menubar->Tools
I just installed VS 2010 Professional Edition, then the Service Pack 1. So now I wanted to install the 7.1 RC for WP7. The first thing it tries to do is download VS 2010 Express. Is this normal? Do I really have to install 2 versions of VS to develop for WP7?
If you already have a valid and applicable edition of Visual Studio 2010 installed, then the installer installs the SDK, Expression Blend, emulator, etc. and adds the necessary project templates into your existing edition. It will not install Visual Studio 2010 Express if you have already have an existing edition, so there are no issues around multiple installs of Visual Studio.
