I would like to learn C# and using Visual Studio 2013. There are a few different flavors of Visual Studio Express 2013: for Web, for Windows and for Windows Desktop. I am not really sure which one I should download. Can someone advise on this? I borrowed the book Professional Visual Studio 2013 from the library, but it seems that this book is targeted for the professional version of Visual Studio 2013. Would I still be able to use the Express version to work on the examples in the book?
Also, I want to learn WPF, WCF and Silverlight, do they come bundled with the Web, Windows or Windows Desktop flavor?
Thanks in advance.
You should download and install all 3 of the express edition since they are free and serve different purposes. However, I would suggest you to get a commercial version for many extra features and convenience.

I downloaded Visual Studio professional 2017 from the Microsoft website and installed the universal windows platform development.
I wanted to open a new c# project, but there were no options to console application, Windows Form, and a lot of others.
Which pack do I need to install from the Visual Studio installer?
You'll need to run the installer again and do "Modify" and make sure ".NET Desktop Development" is enabled to get Windows Form application project types you can also install "ASP.NET and Web Development" for web stuff or any others you might need, if have space + time install them all, if needed, but should only need to install the things you need.

I am considering which version of MS Office 2016 to use for developing office apps. I will be using Visual Studio Community 2015. I would like to know which suite version of MS Office 2016 is compatible with developing apps. I am worried that using a "Home and Student" version will not work with Visual Studio 2015 Community, like the "Professional" version will.
Also, is it possible to develop with Office 365 or is the desktop version required.
You have to have access to the product in order to test your add-in (this is true even before Office 2016). So purchase the edition that contains the products you want to develop for.
That being said, many of the office apps are available for free as part of Office Online, and as long as you are willing to develop web-compatible add-ins, you don't need to buy anything.

I would like to know if the Visual Studio Community's license can be used to develop a "community" system to use in a religious institution.
None of us will use it for profit, it will be only for Community usage. We will be in a team of three workers.
You can be able to use Visual Studio Community edition for both personal and some commercial development(and yes for creating a community application). The reason Microsoft released the community edition was because developers couldn't install 3rd party extensions in the Express editions.Read more below
accepted answer shows the shortcomings of Express edition

I want to download VS 2010 Ultimate through my MSDN licence, but I don't see one for the 64-bit. There's Visual Studio Team Foundation Server 2010 (x86 and x64) - DVD (English), but is that just the server or can I use it for dev too?
There is no 64 bit VS 2010. If you can, you want to download the ultimate edition. It will give you everything you need to write along with the test tools etc. It will also allow you to access to use the premium edition code contract generation.
Team Foundation Server isn't an IDE. It's a code/project management tool.
Team Foundation Server is just that -- TFS -- the server side of Microsoft's source control solution. As Kevin said, Visual Studio itself is 32 bit only. There are a whole bunch of reasons why in this blog post.
