I am currently assigned to migrate an existing Smart Device application built using visual studio 2005. I tried to migrate the application to Visual Studio 2017 without changing the framework and settings. I have already spent some time doing some research but no luck so far.
This is the error I'm encountering:
Any leads or advice is appreciated.
I guess you are talking Windows Mobile 6.x projects. Unfortunately,
support for mobile application development for versions of Windows Phone prior to Windows Phone 7.0
has been dropped with Visual Studio 2010.
The last version that supported this application type is Visual Studio 2008. Usually, you can install different versions of Visual Studio without problems. Nonetheless, this is a very old version and it might be worth to keep it on a separate machine.
You are stuck with Visual Studio 2005 or use VS2008. That's it.

I've search the web and found questions from 3-9 years ago.
My problem is that I can't find anywhere the .NET standard or Windows Console Application or Windows Desktop Application or class Library for C#.
When I had Visual Studio 2015 - it was there by default.
Today I have Visual Studio 2017 and window 10 and I can't get my things together.
Are they canceled?
What is the other option?
When I look at my New project library -> Online -> Visual C#
There are many different applications but non of them seems to come from Microsoft.
Meanwhile I've got a .NET Core API Solution template but it has a lot of errors.
Please help
visual studio c# extensions missing
Just like Joe said, you should use Visual Studio installer to install the modules you need. Visual Studio 2017 use the a new way to install Visual Studio! In the newest version, MS have made it easier for you to select and install just the features you need. MS have also reduced the minimum footprint of Visual Studio so that it installs more quickly and with less system impact than ever before.
After the installer is installed, you can use it to customize your installation by selecting the feature sets—or workloads—that you want.
For the .NET core API project, you need install module .NET Core cross-platform development.
Check the document Install Visual Studio 2017 for some more details.
Hope this helps.
I just installed visual studio 2013 on windows 8.1
When i go to new project then in the windows visual studio is not showing web templates like web pages, MVC 3,4,5 and other stuff like Windows form application and data bases. Visual studio is just showing phone apps development templates. why is this so because i have installed visual studio express with update 2 and i think its latest.
I tried many things like repairing update 2 and installed other asp.net templates for visual studio 2013 but i am not getting on my way...
Please suggest me solutions
The Express versions of Visual Studio come in flavors for desktop and web. It sounds like you might want Microsoft Visual Studio Express 2013 for Web. If you want the more full featured version, check out the commercial versions here.
There's also a few ways to get the commercial versions for free. If you're a small company, check out the BizSpark program. If you're a student, check out the DreamSpark program.
Both Web and Desktop can be installed at the same time. I have both installed on my Windows Server 2012 Box
I've already edited the vstemplate file to change the version number from 11.0 to 12.0 like the answer to a similar question says on here, but that only makes Visual Studio crash after a create a Windows Store XAML Monogame project instead of giving me the version error. The project ends up getting created, but after I restart visual studio it doesn't want to open any of the source files even after I retarget the project to Windows 8.1. Im using visual studio 2013 express btw.
After a lot of problems, I found a better way of getting it to work.
First install Visual studio 2013 (or 2012, that will work too)
Download XNA 4.0 Refresh and install it
Download MonoGame 3.2 and install it
Then you can start using the MonoGame templates in Visual Studio without problems.
Haven't tried it for a Store app, but it fixed all my other problems with Visual Studio 2013 and MonoGame. I used Visual Studio 2013 Express for Desktop to test it.
Are there functionality limitations to using the Microsoft .NET framework and Visual Studio if you do not have administrator access to the box they are installed on? If there aren't, what needs to be configured to have full functionality? I hope this doesn't result in some lengthy answer. If you think it is, let me know in the comments so I can post in a different place and delete my question.
We currently use Visual Studio 2010, but we will be moving to Visual Studio 2012 soon.
I am trying to find a way to develop my own Add-in in C# for Visual Studio 2005 at home, but I don't have the template that comes in the full version of the VS2005.
If I get the template, can I compile it on the Express edition?
Does anyone have it? Where can I find it?
I can't comment specifically on the Add-in Project template, but I know that the Express version of Visual Studio doesn't have the template for Windows Services, but also doesn't have the required libraries (System.ServiceProcess) to be able to compile a Windows Service project.
A trial of VS 2005 might be hard to come by these days, but have you tried downloading a trial of VS 2010 and, if you need to, targeting the .NET 2.0 framework?
