Jul 20, 2018 - Download Visual Studio Community for free today. And extensible IDE; An updated alternative to Visual Studio Express. And Web Essentials. Choose from the options below to see what version of Visual Studio is right.

Recently I've been trying to download Visual Studio 2012 Express, but I failed to find it. One day the links were there, and the next day all of them were replaced by 2013 editions.

Even Google and Microsoft's own search in their Downloads site find 2012 editions, but when I open links I see that they are 2013 now. Why did Microsoft do that? I find it strange that they removed 2012 links, especially because 2010 links are still there. See for yourself: Where do I get Visual Studio 2012 Express now? We have a bunch of projects in TFS which we don't want to convert to 2013 yet.

Visual Studio 2012 is made available along with.NET framework 4.5 and are available for download now. Unwritten law songs. Microsoft released both products in parallel to Windows 8 and Windows Server 2012. Visual Studio 2012 is fully Metro now and so after the Visual Studio 11 RC this is the major release.

Changes so far made after the beta release can be seen from its UI easily and Microsoft also changed the naming of so called Visual Studio 11 to Visual Studio 2012. Even logo of Visual Studio 2012 is changed and made as per Metro design principles.

Have a look of the logo: You can have look of the Visual Studio 2012 direct from Microsoft before we put. Jai jai jai ho soags paglwad. We can easily notice from the image that Metro Design principles are being followed in this release: Here are the direct download links of the various editions of Visual Studio 2012 where we have grabbed both Web installer as well ISO links.
