No modeling project option in VS 2010 - visual-studio

I have installed vs2010 and I want to create modelling project but find no option for the modelling project option. Can any body help what is wrong with my situation

You need the Ultimate Edition to do this. Check your edition via Help -> About.
A detailed comparison on which features are available in which edition can be found on the product page.

In case you own ULTIMATE edition but the template does not show up nevertheless, you may try to reset your collection of installed templates:
On a administrative command line, navigate to
<Visual Studio Installation Path>\Common7\IDE
and execute
devenv /installvstemplates

Hi you can download setup full packages in this site: https://www.nosware.com/visual-studio-2017-offline-installer/1528/
There is two option in there: first ±2GB for Desktop Development Only like: VB.NET, Csharp and C++, if you want full packages ±23GB, you can scroll down in bottom to download in two part, just using winrar to extract part file. Hope it helps.

Any quick ways to downgrade Visual Studio Ultimate/Enterprise edition to Professional?

I have Visual Studio Ultimate/Enterprise installed from a previous engagement. I've now started at a new place who only have licenses form VS Professional. So I need to downgrade but the supported route involves full uninstall and full reinstall which is obviously rather time consuming.
Are there any "clever" (probably unsupported) ways to do the downgrade?
It is not possible to downgrade an installation, as they are different products and can exist side by side. The components downloaded and installed for each product are different.
If you had previously installed VS Pro, as I had, you might be able to go to "Add/Remove Programs" and select "Microsoft Visual Studio Enterprise with Updates." Modify->Uninstall worked perfectly for me. Be sure to backup any settings, as some of mine got reset. My extensions stayed the same, though. To be clear, I had VS Pro first, and I installed Enterprise Evaluation side-by-side with it.
I'm in a similar situation, unfortunately there's no supported option besides the uninstall/reinstall route you've already mentioned. You could probably save some time by backing up all your extensions and settings etc. The processes outlined below might be different for more recent versions but I think the process would be similar
Backup and restore settings
Backup and restore extensions
Edit:
This is pretty weird, I'm starting to think that perhaps Drunken Code Monkey's solution is more accurate than I initially thought. I was expecting to have to follow the same process as Schneider described (uninstall / full reinstall), but as soon as the uninstall of VS Enterprise finished, I was able to open VS Pro as normal.
Edit 2:
Turns out it was not as normal, a bunch of things didn't work (creating ASP.NET MVC projects) and I had to do a repair. Not quite as bad as a full reinstall, fortunately.
Just had to do this. You must first uninstall the enterprise edition. Visual Stuido Installer will complete the uninstall and when it's finished will prompt if you'd like to install a different version, such as Community.
Down Grade visual studio from enterprise to Professional
we can download separate professional version of Visual studio EXE.
Professional and enterprise run side by side in our machine but need separate 2 license for those 2.
if you want to downgrade you visual studio from Enterprise to professional just need to install EXe using below link

VS 2013 Team Explorer Section1 in Vs2010

In VS2013 i see that it has a change log for method automatically populated from TFS and shortcut using Alt+1,2,3,...
is there a way to get this change log shown in VS2010 as well? do i need to enable any options or install and plugins etc..?
thanks
No. What you're looking at is a new feature in VS2013 Ultimate called Code Lens.

Is there a way to unlock a file locked by another user without having to log in VSTFS 2008 using their account?

I need to make changes to files locked by another user who is not accessible any more. How can I unlock the files without having to log in using their account in Visual Studio 2008 TFS?
Yes, though you need to get familiar with the Team Foundation Server command line tf.exe.
See the post I did about this a while ago here http://www.woodwardweb.com/vsts/unlocking_files.html
Since I wrote that post (in October 2005) some alternatives have come about for people who don't want the hassle of learning a new command line.
You could install the TFS 2008 Power Tools on top of Visual Studio 2008 SP1 and you are able to do some of this from the UI in Visual Studio (Right click on the Developer in the Team Members node installed by the power tools and select "Show Pending Changes" and then "Undo..."
Alternatively, install the excellent (and free) TFS Sidekicks from Attrice.
Good luck.
If you have the relevent permissions to do so, yes. There's a good blog post on it here.
Yes you can, but you need the privileges.

Source Versioning for Visual Studio Express

Is there any Visual Studio Express plug ins for source versioning? I am starting a project on my own and only have the Express version of Visual Studio 2008.
Way I do this is I have TortosieHG installed and then in visual studios express i went to Tools>External Tools.
I created the following enteries:
Title: HG New Repositry
Command: C:\Program Files\TortoiseHg\hgtk.exe
Arguments: --nofork init Initial
directory: $(SolutionDir)
Title: HG Commit
Command: C:\Program Files\TortoiseHg\hgtk.exe
Arguments: --nofork init Initial directory: $(SolutionDir)
I then added the two external tools to the toolbar. Now I don't get as nice intergration as I would with the full version of visual studios but I can commit source code and create a source repository without leaving Visual Studios.
Short answer: No.
The Express editions support neither the Add-Ins nor Source Control providers (SCC plug-ins). While there are ways to make this work, they are undocumented, violate the license and have caused legal trouble before…
You don't really need an integration/plugin. First is not supported but there are very good alternatives to make it work.
Whatever SCM you decide to use (SVN, GIT, PlasticSCM, Mercurial) just use the "find changes" workflow:
Do your changes
Find your modifications within the tool you've chosen to use
Commit

Edit: PlasticSCM is free for up to 15 users since Nov 1st 2010.
Visual studio 2012 Express offers an express version of Team Foundation Server.
Source control integration is not supported in the Express editions of Visual Studio. Check out the feature comparison chart at http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/vstudio/products/cc149003.aspx
I don't think there are any plugins for Express versions of VS. Googling 'Jamie Cansdale' is the canonical reference for this issue.
The VisualSVN manual says it works with all editions of Visual Studio - though I have not personally tried it. I know that none of Microsoft's Team Foundation Server stuff will work with Express.
VisualSVN doesn't support Visual Studio Express editions. Visit here for more info http://www.visualsvn.com/visualsvn/download/
Interesting, does the Express edition auto-check for file updates? If so, just use TortoiseSVN and save yourself the money of upgrading.
You can get cloud based Team Foundation Service for free as long as your project has 5 or fewer members. I've been using it for a few months now and it works great. There are a some features of Team Foundation Server that are not available yet, but, hey, it's free.
