MSVCP80.dll is missing at VS2010 - visual-studio-2010

I am using Visual Studio 2010 (VS2010) Ultimate. After installing SP1 for the VS2010. My projects can't run for the release mode (Debug mode is fine) and the error is "The program can't start because MSVCP80.dll is missing". Where can I get MSVCP80.dll for my VS2010 and how to solve the problem? Thanks

Debugging information does not match, when using v60 platform toolset inside Visual Studio 2013

I am using Visual Studio 2013, but I'm in need to develop an old project using the Visual C++ 6.0 compiler.
For this purpose, I have been using Daffodil with no problem on Windows 8.1 for a while.
(You can read more how to use the VC++ 6 compiler in newer Visual Studio versions in this StackOverflow question: Is it possible to use the VC++ 6 compiler in Visual Studio 2012?)
Now I got a new Windows 10 machine, where I reinstalled Visual Studio 6, 2010, 2013 and Daffodil.
Using v60 build tools (Visual C++ 6.0 compiler), project gets compiled fine.
However, when I try to debug, VS says that "debugging information does not match", and I am unable to set breakpoints etc., but:
PDB file is there, same folder and name of debug executable;
Application built in Debug mode, with debug information enabled;
Debugger works fine when using Visual Studio 2010 or 2013 build tools;
Debugger works fine if opening the project inside Visual C++ 6 IDE.
I tried reinstalling all Visual Studio versions as well as Daffodil, but didn't solve.
Any clue what could the problem be?
Finally I actually found a working solution!
for VS 2013:
Enable "Native Edit and Continue"
under Tools->Options->Debugging->Edit and Continue
for VS 2015:
Enable "Use Native Compatibility Mode"
under Tools->Options->Debugging->General

Error 'LINK : fatal error LNK1123: failure during conversion to COFF: failure while building the project

I have visual studio C++ 6.0 and visual studio C++ 2010 express installed in my PC. My friend is able to compile the same project in his PC with visual studio 2010 express.But my PC throws and error
LINK : fatal error LNK1123: failure during conversion to COFF
I do not want to uninstall visual studio C++ 6.0. I have to keep that for other projects. I can uninstall/install Visual studio C++ 2010 express.
Please help me to solve this compatibility issue.
thank you.
UPDATE [SOLUTION] :
I solved issue by changing .NET framework.
I checked that my PC had .NET framework 4.5 installed so I uninstalled it and installed .NET framework 4. And now I can successfully compile my project in visual studio C++ 2010 express.
I do not even need to set "Enable Incremental Linking" to "No
(/INCREMENTAL:NO)" without that also it is working.
Thank you all.

unable to install Silverlight on Visual Studio 2010 SP1

I have installed Visual Studio 2010 and applied SP1.
I am unable to install Silverlight 4 tools to start a silverlight project.
I rebooted the machine after installing Visual Studio 2010 and after applying the SP1, yet I get this error shown below. It seems that Silverlight does not detect Visual Studio on the machine. How to fix that?
This error is misleading.
I had to install the Silverlight SDK before installing the Silverlight tools, and that way works fine.

How can we compile OpenHaptics v3.0 with Visual Studio 2010?

I want to compile my Haptic Application with Visual Studio 2010 but the Academic Edition of OpenHaptics v3.0 supports Visual Studio 2005 compiler only.
VS2005 doesn't have any problem I can compile and run my application with no issue, but due to other libraries I want to move to VS2010.
Is there any way that I could use VS2010 with OpenHaptics® v3.0. The only problem with hl.lib and hd.lib, I can recompile hdu.lib and hlu.lib with VS2010 successfully but I have no idea how can I compile hl.lib and hd.lib with VS2010.
I have been thinking to use vs2010 since 1 year but still no success, any idea ?
You can use the VS 2010 IDE with the VS 2005 build tools if you install Daffodil:

Sharepoint 2010 Projects not showing in Visual Studio 2010

I have installed sharepoint 2010 and the sdk, yet I cannot see / open sharepoint projects in Visual Studio. When I go to new >> Project, sharepoint is not anywhere in the options.
If I try and open an event receiver project, I get this project type is not supported in this installation.
I have tried reinstalling the Sharepoint 2010 SDK, and repairing VS 2010 Premium.
Does anyone have any ideas on what I need to do to get this to work?
I'm running VS 2010 Professional and when I ran VS 2010 SP1 it crashed during installation. After that I got the same error message when I opened a solution containing Sharepoint 2010 projects. I tried the following but it didn't solve it:
- Running VS 2010 repair
- Reinstalling VS2010 SP1
- Reinstalling .Net framework 4.0
Same error...
Finally I ran VS2010 setup, 'add remove features', and noticed that the 'Sharepoint Developer Tools' was not included anymore. I added it and now it works!
This was resolved by uninstalling and reinstalling VS 2010 premium. Go Figure!
