I am trying to install Microsoft Visual Studio Express 2013 with Update 3 for Windows.
I have downloaded its iso image, and the started the installation. But it seems to be stuck at "Configuring your system, this may take a while" for more than 2-3 hours.
Does it usually takes this much time only, is it normal, or there seems to be a problem with the iso file?
How much time does it usually take for complete installation?
Visual studio generally takes a lot of time as it is the new update, wait for some more time if it is still the same, cancel and try updating again.
I was having the same problem, if you're visual Studio just stuck for to long like mine was, use alt-tab, to switch to another windows.
This might show a hidden windows with the next steps. Hope that can help you
Here's also some info that could help
Visual Studio takes forever to start the first time
i recently downloaded the Visual Studio 2015 community and i agree that it takes much more time..... just keep your lappy away for installing and go away for doing some other stuff........it is going to take 3 hrs approx

I've Learned C# Using Visual Studio For Long Enough. It's So Fun and Easy To Code and Learn Programming Using Visual Studio IDE. But Sometimes, I Ever Think To Make A Real Program That Useful Like Usually Software. Could I Make Good Software Just Using Visual Studio ? and If Yes, What's The Shortage of A Software That Develop Using Visual Studio ?
Thanks,
of course you can create a "real" program using Visual Studio. Visual Studio is one of the biggest IDE (Integrated Development Environment) out there.
For example Microsoft is using Visual Studio to create all of their Applications.
Office, Exchange, Windows and the list goes on.
If you want to create useful software with Visual Studio and C# think small in the beginning. Try to create applications that help YOU with whatever you do at your pc, because if you are able to create software that is useful to you, then it might be useful for others too, right?
Everybody starts out small and works his/her way up.

I am in my first year of programming and I was assigned to create a GUI using software such as Dreamweaver, VB, ect. I was hoping to get some input on how to go about this project, without learning a boat load of code or a software I am unfamiliar with.
I am familiar with DW and VB, but not really sure how to create a GUI using VB. I have heard of a designer feature in VB.
If you are using anything after Visual Basic 6 & are programming for Windows, Visual Studio comes with one. Should be File->New->New Project->Visual Basic->Windows->Windows Form Application or similar depending on the edition & settings of Visual Studio (The 'form' is the relevant part)
If you are a student, you can get Visual Studio Professional at DreamSpark. If not, you can get Visual Studio Express Visual Basic for free.

I have problem with Team Foundation Server 2010 and Visual Studio.
When I'm in offline mode the project builds very quickly but when I'm in online mode with TFS my project builds very slowly. When I stop the project it waits a long time.
Any idea what might be causing the problem?

I am looking for advice on the most appropriate MSDN license (without overpaying) for the following development team.
We are essentially a (3-5 developers) SharePoint/.Net development team that will be developing to SharePoint 2010. We also want to integrate with Team Foundation Server so any advice on the appropriate license for that product is also welcome.
My thinking is that we can benefit from VS Premium but hope to be able to get away with VS Professional. It seems that VS Ultimate is overkill and at $11,899 per seat is a nutty price.
All thoughts welcome!
Thanks
If you're a startup making less than $1 million per year I'd suggest you take a look at BizSpark. It essentially is MSDN free for three years and at the end you pay $100.
If you're a company making more than $1 million a year then you'll probably have to pay for one of the standard MSDN licenses. I think Ultimate is overkill in most cases as well. It is there because there are some companies that will buy ultimate no matter what the price is.
You'll get a TFS license that includes SQL Server Standard and 5 limited use (only can be used against one TFS server) CAL's with a VS Pro subscription or higher. In my opinion, Professional is a pretty good deal at $1200 a seat considering what you get.
You get a TFS license with each level of a MSDN subscription now.
Expression Studio is included with Premium and Ultimate, if that is useful to you. Same for production licenses of Office, Project, and Visio. If these are not important, or if you have other arrangements for them, perhaps MSDN w/ VS Professional would be best.
Premium seems to strike a good balance between the two extremes - most if not all of the useful tools, but at a lower cost than Ultimate.

I currently work with both Visual Studio, Eclipse/Rad, and Vim heavily. Visual Studio and Eclipse don't present any problems because they're the same paradigm. However vim (which I use for my *nix work) muddles the issue because it's modal. I actually like the modal nature of vim and find myself trying to type esc k k in Visual Studio. Does anyone have a suggestion about how to make working in the different environments easier?
You could always get ViEmu for Visual Studio and viPlugin for Eclipse / RAD...
Try use this script:
www.vim.org/scripts/script.php?script_id=864
The visual studio script in vim allow you use external command line to work with visual studio.
The plugin is write in vim-script and python, which means you need to install python so that you can run the script.
The script doesn't need you to have a python-embed version of vim (it can auto detect that), but it is highly recommend you to use a python-embed version for performance.
Before I using this plugin I have same problem with you, at that time I use external tool in Visual Studio which you can find here:
vim.wikia.com/wiki/Calling_gvim_from_MS_Visual_Studio
Also I recommend you to check exVim project, which already integrate the Visual Studio plugin in it, and provide an python-embed version
