VS 2012 published web service and click once deployment of a Windows forms application based on VB.NET and .Net 4.0 don't serve up the newer version of the software. They keep on serving the previous version. However it works fine with VS 2010. This is on IIS 7/7.5.
Anyone have any idea about it?
Thanks.
Never mind. I had to clean and rebuild. VS 2012 added an extra step over 2010.

I have had the same problem and the only way I have got the designer to work is (and this should work if build 10240 is acceptable for your development):
Open your project
Go under "Project" to "Properties"
Select "Application" on the left and change BOTH the target version and the min version to "Windows 10 (10.0; Build 10240)
Once you do that the XAML designer will start working again. I've had to do this on 4 different workstations and it's worked everytime.
As to why build 10568 doesn't work? Got me, agile development, will be fixed in a patch? :p
I had the same problem and could not change BOTH versions to Build 10240 as the Application listbox only showed 10586 in Properties/Application. I thought I could arrange that by editing the .csproj file, which is XML after all, but any change there makes all files in the Solution Explorer immediately unavailable. Then I noticed (running Winver.exe) that my W10 still shows build 10240 despite regularly (but not automatically) running Windows updates. Despite multiple solutions tried, this didn't change. I finally used the MediaCreation Tool to download a new Windows 10 on a USB stick and reinstalled Windows 10, preserving apps and data. And now I am really on 10586 ...and the Design mode shows again when I open my project.
I hope this helps a few!
If you are looking for the SSIS toolbox, click SSIS tab, then SSIS Toolbox.
I just wanted to start learing WCF and could not find the WCF Service Library in my Visual Studio 2012 Windows Desktop. After reading and searching I found out that I need the VS Web to get access to it. Since I try to avoid installing two versions of VS I wat to ask if it is possible to add VS Web to VS Desktop.
I have install Visual Studio 2013 SP3. I can´t find project for ASP.NET vNext. These pages tell about vNext in Visual Studio SP2:

http://blogs.msdn.com/b/visualstudio/archive/2014/05/12/visual-studio-2013-update-2-is-here.aspx
What I need install for vNext and cloud optimize mode work with VS 2013?
I think the first link talks about a few unrelated topics / products released by Microsoft. ASP.NET vNext is not available in VS2013. You could download Virtual Box (https://www.virtualbox.org/) which is free. Then install a trial version of Windows Server 2012 R2 (http://www.microsoft.com/en-us/evalcenter/evaluate-windows-server-2012-r2) inside Virtual Box which is free to try for 180 days. Then install VS "14" on the guest machine. That way you don't have to buy anything and can still try VS "14" CTP 2. After the 180 days both the VS and Windows licence will expire so it makes no sense to keep the Virtual Box image anyway.
I have already using Visual Studio 2010 for my project. Now I have to work with a Visual Basic 2006 legacy application. Can I install VB 2006 Enterprise Edition on my system?
Will this affect Visual Studio 2010?
Yes. Visual Studio 2010 and Visual Studio 6 will happily install side-by-side.
You can run multiple versions of Visual Studio on the same machine. I currently have VS2003, VS2005, VS2008 and VS2010 installed and am using all of them.
Where you may get into problems is with something like hooking up the older ones to TFS. This can be done, as I have VS2003 and VS2008 connected to TFS2010, but my VS2005 won't work as it whinges about the provider for some reason.
Another area to watch out for is IIS. As you have already installed VS2010, IIS may be defaulting to .Net 4.0 so if you start deploying .Net 2.0 apps then the websites may not work without some adjustment of things like app pools.
But if you are just using them independently of each other then you should be fine. If you're really paranoid, consider creating a VM and installing the old VS on it.
EDIT
I see from your edited post that you were talking about VB6. This also can be installed alongside any of the later versions of Visual Studio.
I just installed VS 2012 Ultimate RTM on Windows 8 Pro RTM and tried to open a solution containing several projects (class libraries and WinForms) targeting .NET 4.0.
When the solution is loaded, VS prompts that .NET 4.0 isn't supported. It gives me the chance to update my projects to 4.5 (and promises that I could change the target later) or install a "Multi targeting pack" for 4.0 from this page.
I decided to update my projects to 4.5 because I had no luck installing the offered Multi targeting pack (errors see below).
Unfortunately, VS does not show 4.0 as a target by default (when changing the target for an updated project), but redirects me to the page where I can download the Multi targeting pack.
So far so good, but I wasn't able to install any of the offered downloads (neither runtime nor targeting pack) again.
The error message says in case of .NET Framework 4.0.3 Targeting Pack:
Setup has detected that this computer does not meet the requirements to install this software. The following blocking issues must be resolved before you can install KB2600213 software package.
Installation Requirements:
Microsoft .NET Framework 4 Multi-Targeting Pack was not found. Please repair your installation for Microsoft Visual Studio 2010 in order to get this update.
Strange enough since I have no VS2010 installed.
.NET Framework 4.0.3 Runtime Installation stops with the following error:
KB2600211 does not apply, or is blocked by another condition on your computer.
I've checked that .NET 4.0 is installed (using the .NET Installation verification tool), I've tried to repair VS2012 but nothing let me target .NET 4 and the Event log does not contain any related reports. Any suggestions or hints (besides going back to Win7/VS2010)?
I'm honestly not sure what's going on. I have VS 2012 Ultimate RTM and all versions of .NET are supported.
I'm almost positive I never installed any .NET frameworks manually, though I did install Visual Studio 2010 Express for Windows Phone from http://create.msdn.com.
