Does anyone know where I can go to get a list of the new TFS 2010 features.
NOTE: I need TFS 2010 features. Not Visual Studio 2010.
My boss is wondering why not just upgrade to Visual Studio 2010 and not worry about updating TFS from 2008 to 2010. (VS2010 is compatable with TFS 2008.)
Any input would be nice.
Try Channel 9 and MSDN:

The TFS Team Blog also has some interesting content, but you have to sift through it.

I want to know if i buy Visual studio 2017 professional then can i sell multiple projects to multiple clients made in same visual studio licence ?
or there is any limit like one client to one licence ?
logically there should not be any limit , still wanted to confirm !
As long as you are selling "standalone" programs that are pre-built and do not require Visual Studio libraries to be distributed with your program in order for your program to run, there is no limitation.
Where things get a bit tricky is if you do have to distribute DLLs supplied by Visual Studio that your program requires. Some of these may have different licensing/conditions/limitations for licensed redistribution. For VS 2017, the list of VS files you are licensed to redistribute with your program can be found here: https://www.visualstudio.com/en-us/productinfo/2017-redistribution-vs . Any libraries on that list with modified licensing conditions that diverge from "you may freely redistribute" (such as ASP.NET libraries) are also annotated there.
Finally, there may be 3rd-party licensed add-on libraries that integrate with Visual Studio that have their own licensing conditions, such as the legacy InstallShield Limited Edition or Visual Studio Installer "wizard" libraries that were provided/sold to automate the installation of your VS-built program.
The full Visual Studio 2017 Professional License Terms can be found here: https://www.visualstudio.com/license-terms/mlt687465/

Where is the manual that used to come with Visual Studio 2008?
Did they stop including this in Visual Studio 2010?
VS2008 was the last VS version that included a pre-packaged version of the MSDN library. In VS2010 and up you can use the Help Library Manager to download off-line content for the help viewer. The MSDN article for it is here.

Visual Studio 2010 crashes when loading
Just trying to start Visual Studio 2010 to an empty environment, no project, solution, or file, but it crashes. It was working fine a few days ago.
I've tried reinstalling VS SP1 with the Repair option. I've tried the /SafeMode and /ResetSettings switches. I also tried runnign with the /Log switch but I don't see anything about an error in the log file.
My setup: VS 2010 Professional edition, SP1 running on Windows XP.
I was able to fix this by stopping the WPFFontCache process and deleting the ".dat" files from "C:\Documents and Settings\LocalService\Local Settings\Application Data" and then restarting.

I am a novice freelancer providing .NET solutions. Currently I have a Student version of Visual Studio that I am working. But, If I want to deliver solutions to the clients, do I need to have buy the VS license?
For instance, I got a requirement from a client (does'nt have VS license) to build a web application in godaddy. In this case, does we both need to purchase license?
Is there any alternative like developing the application in web developer express edition and publish that using Nant tools?
Thanks in advance,
Kris
Use the Visual Studio Express edition. There are no limitations regarding commercial use.
From FAQ
Can I use Express Editions for
commercial use? Yes, there are no
licensing restrictions for
applications built using Visual Studio
Express Editions.
Microsoft just released a new version of Visual Studio - Visual Studio Community.
It is the equivalent of Visual Studio 2013 Professional but free for students, open source software projects, and small teams (less than 5).
I am not a lawyer and this is not a site to get legal questions answer. But in general, you cannot use student versions to deliver commercial products. Also, depending on the software each machine has to use it's own license of the software.
If you're talking about Visual Studio 2010 Express, then there's a thread here on the MSDN forums that states: "Provided that you comply with all the License Terms for a particular Express release, the 2010 Express SKUS can be used to create commercial software."

I've recently switched from being an employee of a small consulting company to being an independent consultant and as time goes on I will need to upgrade Windows and Visual Studio. So what is the most affordable way to go about this for a small time developer?
My previous boss suggested I get a TechNet Plus subscription for OS licenses, I've done that and appears to be what I need, but open to other options for the future.
Visual Studio I'm having a hard time figuring out exactly what is the difference between Professional and Standard. Also I'd really like a digital version, but seems that expensive MSDN subscription is the only way?
Visual Studio 2008 Professional with MSDN Professional listed here appears to be semi-reasonably priced at $1,199. That would make the TechNet Plus subscription unneeded.
I recommend that if VS Express is not good enough, use Professional. Standard is missing some really useful features, like a Remote Debugger. Here is a detailed comparison:
http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/vs2008/products/cc149003.aspx
I'd say cancel TechNet and get one of the bottom two MSDN Subscriptions, Visual Studio Professional with either MSDN Professional or with MSDN Premium.
You have the Microsoft Empower for ISV program, see https://partner.microsoft.com/40011351
Gives you a full msdn pro subscription for two years.
For non developer tools try Microsoft Action Pack
https://partner.microsoft.com/40016455
Then use Visual Studio Professional (in some exibitions you will get this for free)
For the versioning use svn and not TeamSystem
I realise that this doesn't apply to the asker but it it is relevent to the question.
Any student developers out there try Microsfts Dream Spark scheme. Visual Studio, Expression Studio, XNA and Server 2003 for free!
Office is also available to students for less than 60 bucks in Microsfts `Ultimate Steal'
I think that Visual Studio Professional with MSDN Subscription doesn't offer much value compared to just purchasing Visual Studio 2010 Pro. You get testing licenses for Windows Server and MSSQL, but that's it. And you can get by just fine without those 90% of the time.
But Visual Studio Premium with MSDN is a different story. You get access to most other server products (testing license only of course), and an Office Professional license. That's a much better value for a one-man shop in my opinion, if you can afford it.
