which visual studio 2012 sku has the command window - visual-studio

i just installed visual studio 2012 express for C++. It doesn't have the command window available (it doesn't show up on View->Other Windows->Command Window).
After searching a bit, it seems that the visual studio 2012 express doesnt have it.
I assume that ultimate visual studio 2012 has it, but does anyone know if the professional sku has it as well?
Thanks

Not in express

Can you please help me how to add this plug in? Thank you
I install Visual Studio Community 2015 (make sure you use vs_community.exe) and SourceSafe option will be available.
I was using vs_Desktop.exe previously.
Make sure to select and download the community edition instead of the visual studio express for desktop
There is patch for Visual SourceSafe that once installed lets you see the SourceSafe plugin in the Visual Studio Tools|Source Control plugin list here it is

About saving on visual studio 2013

Hi guys im using Microsoft Visual Studio 2013, but in my college, all of the computers using microsoft visual Studio 2012. Is there is possible if i save my project (from visual studio 2013) then i open it on visual studio 2012?
Visual Studio 2013 has a feature called "Solution Round Tripping", which means that a solution created in Visual Studio 2012, under certain circumstances, can be edited by both Visual Studio 2012 and 2013.
There are limitations though, as you can't open a solution in 2012 that uses new features or frameworks that are not available in 2012. Makes sense right? Generally, when you create the solution in 2012 and then open it in 2013, your chances are high.

How to change the icons between different versions of visual studio

I installed visual studio 2008 first. Then I installed visual studio 2003. The icons of the solution file(.sln), the object files(.obj) and etc all turn to the icon of vs 2003. How can I change them to vs 2005?

Will Visual Studio Express for Phone 7 series mess up Visual Studio 2010?

I have Visual Studio 2010 professional installed.
If I install Visual Studio Express for Phone 7, will Visual Studio 2010 still work?
Yes it will work just fine. Express versions of Visual Studio are designed to work side by side with both other express editions and non-express editions.
Note: I'm not sure what the state of Visual Studio Expressfor the Phone 7 is. Occasionally issues will pop up when installing multiple versions of Visual Studio if one or more is a beta edition. If that's the case I would proceed with caution.

Going from Visual Studio 2008 to Visual Studio 2010 Express Editions

I use C# and asp.net in visual studio 2008 standard. I just found out that there is no Visual studio 2010 standard.
I can't really afford Visual studio 2010 Pro.
So what am I going to lose when (if) I start using
C# 2010 express
web dev 2010 express
Have a look at this question, it has a complete list.
Prices were leaked here: Microsoft names Visual Studio 2010 dates. There is no Standard edition, Visual Studio 2010 Professional will be priced at $799, ooouuuuch!!!
I'm using the express editions of VS 2010 and here's what I've found to be missing compared to VS 2008 Pro:
No support for plugins at all (e.g. no Resharper or what not)
No windows Service template (this is really odd as this exists in VS 2008 C# express edition, so it must've been removed from 2008 express to 2010 express)
And that's pretty much it, there are probably other things missing too, however I haven't come across anything else.
I've used VS 2008 express editions at home for a long time (and now 2010 express), but run VS 2008 Pro at work.
