Visual Studio 2012 - english error messages in Windows 8 - windows-8

Have installed Visual Studio 2012 Pro on a Windows 8 Pro (Danish).
The problem is that all error messages now are in Danish! I remember that earlier I should just delete the Danish .net framework language pack, but there are not such a package any longer! (Like Configure visual studio to show error messages in english).
So how do I now get English error messages Again?

Visual Studio on Surface Pro SP1

So, I bought into the dream in the form of a surface pro and then I installed Visual Studio 2010 in the hopes of coding on the toilet. However, I cannot get SP1 to install (from this link: here). Has anyone successfully installed SP1 on the surface?
The error I get is:
KB2736182 does not apply, or is blocked by another condition on your computer. Please see http://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?LinkId=225649 for more details.

VS2012 Error on setup on Windows 8 - Visual C++ 2012 x86 Minimum Runtime cannot be found

I am getting a few errors trying to download the new VS2012. Its a fresh install of windows 8 (did the windows update). I have tried not selecting all (no C++, lightswitch, blend, office tools)
I tried different mounting tools for the .ISO but no luck. VS2010 is still working. Running x86. Log file
Errors:
Critical: Microsoft Visual C++ 2012 x86 Minimum Runtime - 11.0.507 Cannot find the requested object.
Microsoft Visual Studio 2012 Pre-Clean Tool Cannot find the requested object
Microsoft Visual C++ 2012 x86 Additional Runtime - 11.0.507 Cannot find the requested object.
Microsoft Visual C++ 2012 Core Libraries, Team Foundation Server 2012, Microsoft Framework 4.5 Multi-Targeting pack.... and a few other ones cannot be found. Thanks!
Downloaded the web installer, and that seemed to work. It seems that the iso was corrupted as the MD5 did not match.

Windows Phone 8 SDK running in Visual Studio 2010

I know that the SDK is not finished, yet a few lucky developers have got their hands on it already, so here's my question: when you installing Windows Phone 8 SDK, did it install the SDK in Visual Studio 2010 also, or just on the 2012 edition (including 2012 Express)?
After posting my question, two different developers that had access to the SDK contacted me directly stating that there is no integration of the Windows Phone 8 SDK in Visual Studio 2010, just on the 2012 version.
No, You need Visual Studio 2012, Windows 8 Pro or Enterprise x64 + processor supporting SLAT for running Hyper-V.
You can now download the WP8 SDK here:

Visual Studio 2012 Premium crashes when I use the Solution Configuration Manager

Visual Studio 2012 Premium crashes when I use the Solution Configuration Manager (or drop down on tool bar) to switch from Debug solution config to Release. As soon as I make the selection to the Release config, I get a dialog with a progress bar stating it is looking for a solution to the problem and after a few seconds that dialog closes VS closes and another dialog opens that states it is restarting Visual Studio. I get this same behavior if I try to create a new configuration from within the Solution Configuration Manager; i.e., as soon as I save the new config VS crashes. During the crash I'm not given the option in the dialogs to get detailed info for the crash.
This did not happen with the same code in VS2010 and Win7.
My work-around is to modify the Debug config to be what I need for Release, and then put it back to what I need for Debug.
VS 2012 was installed on a clean (not an update) install of Windows 8. I've installed all the latest updates for both Win8 and VS. Here is the Visual Studio boiler-plate info:
Microsoft Visual Studio Premium 2012
Version 11.0.50727.1 RTMREL
Microsoft .NET Framework
Version 4.5.50709
Installed Version: Premium
LightSwitch for Visual Studio 2012, Team Explorer for Visual Studio 2012, Visual Basic 2012, Visual C# 2012, Visual C++ 2012, Visual F# 2012, Visual Studio 2012 Code Analysis Spell Checker, NuGet Package Manager 2.0.30717.9005, PreEmptive Analytics Visualizer 1.0, SQL Server Data Tools 11.1.20627.00, Web Developer Tools 1.0.30710.0

App deployment failed in VS 2012 express edition for windows 8

I'm trying to run a windows 8 sample app on Visual studio 2012 express edition for windows 8.
I used web installer for VS and using windows 8 release preview build 8400.
I get this message even the app build is sucessful:
Error : DEP0800 : The required framework "F:\Program Files\Microsoft SDKs\Windows\v8.0\ExtensionSDKs\Microsoft.WinJS.1.0\1.0\Microsoft.WinJS.1.0.appx" failed to install.
Windows cannot install package Microsoft.WinJS.1.0 because this package requires a higher Windows version. The package requested Windows version 6.2 with AppModel version 1, while the current Windows version is 6.2 with AppModel version 0. App4
Any help?
The Visual Studio 2012 released version (downloads here) will work only with the RTM version of Windows 8, which is generally available on Oct. 26th, but a 90-day trial is available now.
The Windows 8 Release Preview is only compatible with Visual Studio 2012 RC, which I thought would be available until Windows 8 GA, but the link I had for it appears to now be broken. You might be able to find a cached copy somewhere.
