How to configure a proxy so that Microsoft visual studio can be downloaded and installed through that proxy .
I know this question is dated now, but I had a similar issue trying to install Microsoft Visual Studio 2019 behind a firewall.
This is what helped me: Usually you have to install by elevating to admin privileges. I had to first run Iexplorer.exe as administrator (go to where it's installed, like "C:\Program Files\internet explorer" and right click iexplore.exe and select "Run as administrator"), then open up the settings -> Internet Options -> Connections -> Lan settings. Update the proxy setting to match what is configured in your Iexplorer under your normal user account. The installer should now be able to auto-detect proxy setting under the administrator account and download and install correctly.

I've done a successful offline installation of visual studio 2019 on my offline computer which can't be connected to the internet. On my laptop I installed some nice theme extensions for visual studio and i want to copy them to my offline computer. I tried copying C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Visual Studio\2019\Community\Common7\IDE\Extensions from my laptop to my offline copmuter but that doesn't seem to do anything and also is 1.3GB, which is way more space than just a few themes.
So how can I copy those extensions to my offline computer (if I even can)?
I suggest you download the offline package from visual studio marketplace, then re-install it on offline computer.
If we copy installation files, some unexpected problems may make visual studio crashed.
We can try to install the extension on a machine with network connection and check the required certificate (take GitHub Extension for example), export the required certificate and open "manager user certificates" on the offline computer to export it, after that and retry this extension installation.
I recently installed Visual Studio 2017 on my laptop (running Windows 10). I have a C++ project using the OpenCV and Eigen libraries, and it seems to compile correctly, but when I try to run the Local Windows Debugger, I get an error message that says:
Visual Studio Remote Debugger (MSVSMON.EXE) failed to start. If this problem persists, please repair your Visual Studio installation via 'Add or Remove Programs' in Control Panel
I ran the Repair tool it suggested, with no luck. I also checked for a solution online, and came across a support page (Link). I tried turning off my anti-virus and firewall as per the suggestions on the support page, but that didn't get rid of the error message. My laptop is brand new, and I just installed Visual Studio and the Remote Debugger, so I don't think it would be the case that the version of the Remote Debugger doesn't match with that of Visual Studio. All of the other suggestions are for people doing remote debugging, but I'm doing a local debug.
Any help/suggestions on resolving this issue would be appreciated.
Firstly close the Visual Studio.
Goto AppData\Local\Microsoft\VisualStudio and select version (Ex: VS 2015 has 14.0 folder).
Then delete ComponentModelCache folder.
Start the Visual Studio.
Find what's preventing msvsmon.exe from running.
I encountered this error in Visual Studio 2019 while trying to start debugging a .net 5 console application. I tried to run C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Visual Studio\2019\Enterprise\Common7\IDE\Remote Debugger\x64\msvsmon.exe and found that User Access Control dialog opens and is asking to run it as an administrator. So two solutions were possible for me, either run VS2019 as Administrator or remove the Run this program as an administrator setting for msvsmon.exe.
I have been working with Visual Studio Ultimate 2013. Today when I tried to open a solution, it tried to convert the solution and showed me error like
"The Web Developer Tools option must be installed prior to opening or creating Web projects. You can install this option by repairing your Microsoft Visual Studio installation and ensuring that 'Web Developer Tools' is checked in the list of optional components."
I goggled about this and tried to Modify the Visual Studio 2013 ultimate by enabling the Web Developer Tool. But here I am getting the other error like
Unable to Locate Package Source.
What should I do now?
Go to Control Panel -> Programs and Features -> Select your Visual Studio Version and hit "Change"
Click MODIFY and enable Web Developer Tools
Enable Web Developer Tools
Click Update
Perhaps the installer file for Visual Studio was deleted and is no longer available to modify installations. If you can't locate it, you could just re-install Visual Studio, but that takes awhile.
Few days ago i had to reinstall VS. So after uninstallation, I downloaded VS2010 Ultimate from MSDNAA and installed it. Everything went without any trouble, but when i run VS I found, that there wasn't a Team Explorer.
So i downloaded TE from Team Explorer link. But after installation TE, Visual Studio still doesn't see TE. There is nothing in Menu -> View and Menu -> Tools -> Options -> Source Control.
What should I do now?
Are you able to see Team Explorer which is tabbed along with the solution explorer (At the bottom of the solution explorer window)? If not click view->Team Explorer (Ctrl+M). From there you should be able to connect to your TFS instance.
When you install the Visual Studio, then Team Explorer comes by default with VS.
You can check Team Explorer in View->TeamExplorer
If you do not found Team Viewer in your View then you can download it from below link
https://blogs.msdn.microsoft.com/devops/2017/04/05/reintroducing-the-team-explorer-standalone-installer/
or you can download it from vs installer.
For future readers:
I was missing some menus from the Team Explorer side panel.
what fixed it was resetting user settings by manually running devenv.com /resetuserdata from the visual studio folder.
To me it was:
C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Visual Studio\2017\Professional\Common7\IDE\devenv.com /resetuserdata
Notice: this will reset your settings, so make sure you import / export it first (if you require anything specific) .
I'm assuming your using TFS. Have you connected to a TFS instance using the menu Team -> Connect to team foundation server?
You need to download Microsoft Visual Studio Team Explorer 2010 from here:

I am trying to get my project to use my IIS virtual directory, here is how I have it setup..
In Windows 7..
My project has a Web Application, which is located in my Projects folder..
In IIS, I created a new Virtual Directory pointing to my Web Application,
gave IIS permissions..
can access it fine using http://localhost/WebApplication
Now in Visual Studio 2010, I goto properties of the WebApplication, select "Use Local IIS Web server", type in "http://localhost/WebApplication", sits there for a few mins then a popup error..

Microsoft Visual Studio

To access local IIS Web sites, you must install the following IIS components:
In addition, you must run Visual Studio in the context of an administrator account.
For more information, press F1.

OK

Does not list any components missing..
Any ideas? Rather not have my project in inetpub/wwwroot
Try running Visual Studio as administrator.
Right click your Visual Studio shortcut and click "Run as Administrator".
