I installed Visual Studio 2013 Community edition with C++. Now I want to use it to program in C#. The problem is VS will not let me create C# files, only C++ files. How do I correct this?
Bonus points if you can answer this question: Why does Google provide no relevant results when I try and search for it in several different wordings?

I am trying to migrate legacy code, consisting of thousand of lines code from visual studio 2005 to visual studio 2015.We have searched all over the internet but haven't found any useful resource.Can anyone please help us regarding this??
May be it will help you:
According to article "Many widely used assets behave the same in Visual Studio 2015, Visual Studio 2013 and the two earlier versions". You may need convert to VS2012 and use it in VS2015.
Did you test this: github?
In the internet there are some articles migrate for example: VS2005 to VS2008 and VS2008 to VS2012. Try to use 2 step conversions.
The best way to manually migrate: create empty project in VS2012, move your files from the old projects
Can I use Roslyn and all its tooling in Visual Studio 2015 Community edition?
I am about to download the community edition and it's a big decision for me given that I have a single piece of hardware, my laptop, which I use for everything, and the only reason I am going to download 2015 is because I want to practice coding Roslyn, which is not available in the VS 2013 or earlier expression editions.
"Roslyn" is just the compiler platform in Visual Studio 2015. So yes, the Community edition has Roslyn.
We've been referring to it by its code name for so long that it's not really clear, but "Roslyn" is simply a rewrite of the C# and VB .NET compilers in managed code. On top of the compiler platform, you can write extensions to interact with code and the IDE as it's parsed in the form of quickfixes and refactorings.
The Visual Studio Community editions are nearly functionally identical to Visual Studio Professional, albeit under different license terms. This includes extension support.
The Roslyn GitHub page has awesome documentation to help you get your head wrapped around it.
We just switched over to VS 2013 and I heard that you're supposed to be able to
generate code maps for your entire application. Awesome feature indeed, that could
get new developers on our project up to speed.
Watched a couple of tutorials, but when I tried to just right click on a method
in the application, the 'Show on Code Map' context menu is missing. In fact, I
can't find anything in VS that has anything to do with Code Maps.
My version:
Visual Studio Premium 2013
I tried installing Modeling SDK for Microsoft Visual Studio 2013, but that didn't do anything.
Anyone got any ideas?
You need Visual Studio ULTIMATE to create Code Maps.

This has changed for Visual Studio 2015 and Visual Studio 2017:
The Enterprise Edition allows creating code maps.
The Community and Professional Editions can open diagrams generated in other Visual Studio editions in read-only mode.
I am trying to develop custom code for an InfoPath 2013 form. I have Visual Studio 2013 Professional installed, but when trying to edit code I get the following message:
The following external components are required to edit your form code. Please install them and try again.
Microsoft Visual Studio 2012
Visual Studio C# Support
Microsoft Visual Studio Tools for Applications 2012
C# support is installed, along with Visual Studio Tools for Applications 2012.
Does InfoPath 2013 just not support VS2013?
Unfortunately No
MS has really been making some bad decisions lately
Firstly VS2013 was released so they forced people to upgrade if you want to develop for Windows 8.1
Secondly, MS have announced that they are dropping InfoPath and have yet to provide an alternate solution. Support is still available but InfoPath 2013's successor will be another solution.....i'm guessing Azure Forms or SharePoint forms, something like that
Very disappointing
As you have found, adding code to an InfoPath 2013 form requires Visual Studio 2012. I am not aware of a way to use it with any other version of Visual Studio.
Depending on what you plan to use the custom code for, you may be able to get by with the qRules library (full disclosure: I am one of the developers of this library). It contains many of the most common features for which people tend to use code within InfoPath, and you can use them simply by executing rules within your form, eliminating the need for any version of Visual Studio.
If there is a specific thing you are looking to do with code, I can tell you whether it's possible to do so with qRules, but you should open a separate question for that (and let me know here).
I am trying to find a LINQ to SQL visualizer for Visual Studio 2010.
Anybody know of one somewhere?
When i was using vs 2008 i used this one.
But with vs 2010 it does not work.
I tried this one, but it didn't work either!
Is there a visual studio 2010 visualizer for Linq to SQL ?? thanks
The tools must be integrated in vs 2010.
After research i found this article and they talk we need to recompile the linq-to-sql visualizer with vs 2010 dll reference, and it's working very nicely.
So there is the solutions
Moreover while this meta language can express things more concisely, I guess they’ll be a range of scenarios where I’ll prefer to keep using C# 2008 Samples Expression Tree Visualizer (Expression Tree visualization through a Windows Form Tree) or Manuel Abadia Linq Expression Debugger Visualizer (Expression tree visualization through a graph). I noticed that both these addin doesn’t work as-is on VS 2010 and the trick I wanted to share here is that, to use them under VS 2010, you just need to recompile them by referencing the VS 2010 assembly Microsoft.VisualStudio.DebuggerVisualizers.dll (found in C:\Program Files\Microsoft Visual Studio 10.0\Common7\IDE\ReferenceAssemblies\v2.0\Microsoft.VisualStudio.DebuggerVisualizers.dll) instead of the VS 2008 assembly with the same name. This works like a charm with the C# 2008 Samples Expression Tree Visualize used in VS 2010 on .NET 4 and .NET 3.5 projects. I expect the same good result with the Manuel Abadia piece of code (but source code is not available here so I couldn’t recompile, Manuel can you do that?).
Have you tried LINQpad?
