VS C++ 2013 Community version

I down loaded and installed VS Studio C++ 2013 Community version based on this
===========================================================
As of November 12, 2014, Microsoft has a Community Edition of Visual Studio that is equivalent to the latest Professional Edition. It is free for individuals, non-profits and small dev
teams of less than 5 people
===========================================================
That's me - but this morning I get a message the license has expired and I'm directed to sites to purchase upgrades. What options do I have? What did I miss on the installation that caused this?
Thanks for any help and guidance.
Charlie

Did you miss the instruction that you must register the product within 30 days of installation to make your license permanent?
If your installation is still active, go to Help->Register Product and follow the instructions.

Cannot start Visual Studio 2013 Community edition

Windows 7 on a 64-bit PC...
Downloaded the installer vs_community.exe for Visual Studio 2013 with Update4 yesterday and ran it.
It took about 1 hour and 20 minutes. At the end the installer reported the web deployment function
could not be found/installed and that I could locate and install it myself later. It then told me to
restart the PC, which I did, but the Community edition had not been added to the start menu.
There are other Visual Studio versions on this PC:
Visual C# 2010 Express, Visual Express 2012, Visual Express 2013 and Visual Studio 2013 Ultimate
trial version. They can all be started from the menu and do not interfere with each other and they
installed without problems. There are 4 weeks evaluation time left for VS 2013 Ultimate and I want to
make use of that. VS Express can be shown the door if any of these might be blocking the
Community version.
I am puzzled by one more VS directory named Microsoft Visual Studio 2012 in Program Files(x86). This
contains many items added yesterday by the Community install including a directory named Community
with with two files licencse.htm and ThirdPartyNotices.txt. It also contains files and directories
added in November last year (ImportProjects, Preemptive Solutions...(don't remember what or if I was installing)) and some added in February this year when I installed VS Ultimate 2013 trial. So the VS 2012 directory contains a mix of items placed there by
VS 2013 installers.
Questions:
1. Could this mixed use be the cause of the Community version not being on the Start menu?
2. what can I do to fix this without losing the VS Ultimate trial?
3. Can Community version coexist with other VS versions?

I was installing by running vs_community.exe.
When I let the mouse hover over this file name information about the file pops up:
File Description: Microsoft Visual Studio 2013 Community with Update4
File version: 12.0.31101.0
Size: 1.18MB
I don't know, but I would guess this file installs the Community version.
I did not notice that the Community version will not run on the same computer as other VS 2013 versions. Is this in the documentation? And will the Community version be blocked by VS Express
versions too?
Now, as far as I understand to make the Community version work I will need to uninstall the VS Ultimate 2013 trial first. Will that remove the Ultimate files in the MS VS12.0 directory in Program Files (X86)? and will uninstalling Community remove its contribution?
I mentioned there are other files too in MS VS12.0, like SDK, Silverlight, WDExpress and Web. I don't remember installing any other program that might have put them there. Do I have to empty or remove MS VS12.0 before installing the community version? Then,
if there are some left-overs can I just delete MS VS12.0 manually?

Trouble Installing Visual Studios 2013 Community on Windows Standard 7 Embedded.

Hi there,
I'm not sure if this is solvable or not, but I cannot seem to get MS Windows Standard 7 Embedded to run Visual Studios 2013. I have been able to make it work fine on Win7 HP, and on Win 8.1, but it seems to not be compatible with the Win Standard 7
Embedded. I was thinking that I may have to use an older version of Visual studios, but I'm not sure, thanks in advance for the help.

You don't provide much of an explanation to go on with regard to what is occuring which will not allow Visual Studio 2013 community edition to run on WS7E.
Is .Net Framework 4.5 already installed on WS7E? Did VS 2013 Community install with no issues on WS7E? Are any errors occuring? If WS7E has event logs have you checked those?
I have no idea about WS7E or if you have to create an image that will run VS 2013 Community.
La vida loca
I tried to upload a screen shot but apparently I have yet to be verified human, but I will try to describe what it looked like. When I ran the .exe from downloads it came up with a window that said to fix the following errors before attempting to install.
The first error said that visual studios requires a computer with a newer version of windows. The next problem said that visual studios works best with internet explorer 10, but I can't get an updated version of explorer because it is not compatible
with my system. I can try another version of windows, or a different version of visual studios; however, I can only run windows 7 or earlier, windows 8 is not compatible with my pc.

VS 2013 Community and SQL Server Express 2005

Not sure if I'm in the right forum, but I'll give it a shot. I have a laptop with Vista and SQL Server Express 2005. I created a db on it and put a lot of time into it. But now the laptop is dieing. I am wanting to use the db with VS 2013
Community.
I plan to upload the db files to OneDrive from the Vista laptop and then download them to my new laptop that has VS on it. Will it work? Is it practical? Should I go with SQL Express 2008 or higher?
I'm just learning VS and not sure what to do. Any help will be appreciated. Thanks.
Bill

Thanks for pvdg42’s help.
Hi Bill,
It seems that you have resolved certain issues, you know that one thread for one issue, so for the new issue, it would be better if you could post them in new threads.
>>The ProgramFiles folder has a folder Microsoft Visual Studio 12.0. The ProgramFiles(x86) has a VS 11.0 ands VS 12.0 folder. I did not know this when I downloaded 2013CE.
It would be related to your windows version 32 bit or 64 bit, for example, the 64 bit version windwos 8.1 in my side, it would setup in this path default:
C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Visual Studio 12.0
In addition, my understanding the latest issue “The tables not show in object explorer window” would be related to the database upgraded from the old SQL Server version to the high version. So it would be not the VS IDE issue.
Of course, if you add a new table in this database, how about the result?
If you connect to the previous database in this high version, how about the result if you add a table?
I think if it would works well when you add a new table in other database of high version in VS2013, it means that it is not the VS IDE issue, the real issue would be related to your previous database.
My suggestion is that you could post this issue to the SQL Server forum since it is related to the database migration.

Visual Studio 2013 community edition

Can I install Visual Studio 2013 Community Edition on the same development machine that has Visual studio 2010 professional and Visual Studio 2005 Professional also installed?
Will SAP's Crystal Reports work with Visual Studio 2013 Community Edition?
Bill Voorhees

Yes. the three different versions (2005 vs. 2010 vs. 2013) are independent entities designed to install and coexist on a single system.
As for CR, you'll need to ask SAP about that.

Where do I start writing Office (Word & Excel) Addins using VS 2013 Community?

First, I hope that I have selected the appropriate location for this message. If not I apologize. I am hoping that posting to the VSTO community will also cover the Word and Excel development groups.
Second, a word of explanation: I am partially handicapped (unable to use my left hand easily), and 73 years of age and retired, and due to medical prescriptions unable to respond as quickly as I might desire.
Consequently I may be tardy in responding to any messages sent to me.
SUBJECT: I currently have Office 2007 (and as a limited income retiree - find it impossible to upgrade to a newer version of Office) and would like to prepare/write some add-ins of the macros (VBA for both
Word and Excel) that I have used and developed over the years. When I retired I lost the opportunity to use advanced versions of Visual Studio and have been limited to the "Express" versions of Visual Studio. With the recent release of Visual
Studio 2013 Community there appears to be the possibility that I might be able to convert my macros and such to an add-in. Unfortunately, I haven't a clue where or even how to start.
I very much would appreciate any information, directions, suggestions, and ideas which might help me find a way to get started in providing an add-in which would span the various versions of Word and Excel between 2007 and the current version. (I am currently
running Windows 8.1 but must admit I am not terribly impressed.)
I might note that my primary language for programming has been VB (as in VBA). I am not opposed to learning C# but rewriting everything would be a bit more inefficient than I would like to tackle at this point in time.
If there is some generous soul who would be kind enough to point me toward articles, samples/examples, and ideas on how I might be able to create these add-ins of my macros and such I would be deeply appreciative.
NOTE: I realized only after making the original post that I forgot to ask whether I need to obtain a copy of VSTO or whether the capabilities of VSTO had been incorporated into Visual Studio 2013 Community.

Hello David,
Out of the box the Community edition of VS doesn't include VSTO templates. You have to install
http://aka.ms/OfficeDevToolsForVS2013 to get them appear. In general, the Community edition corresponds to the Professional one (paid one). So, you can start developing add-ins in VB.NET. See
Create Add-ins and Customizations for Office by using Visual Studio for more information.

Hi Arend,
Thank you for posting in MSDN forum.
Since this forum is to discuss: Visual Studio WPF/SL Designer, Visual Studio Guidance
Automation Toolkit, Developer Documentation and Help System, and Visual Studio Editor. Based on your issue, I think that the issue is more related to the programming. So I’m afraid that it is not the correct forum for this issue.
To help you find the correct forum for this issue, could you please tell
me which kind of app you want to create? Is it winform app or others?
If you want to code for a winform app using c# language, I suggest you
can consult your question on specific
WinForm forum so that they can share you something for you to start.
Thanks for your understanding.

Visual Studio 2013 Community Azure Login Not Working with Two-factor Authentication

Has anybody had any problems logging in to Azure to publish when using Visual Studio 2013 Community and with two-factor authentication turned on?
I couldn't log on until I turned off two-factor authentication.
Regards

Hello John,
Thanks for posting here!
You can try and set a credential helper like
git-credential-winstore in order to cache your credentials. See if that helps.
Couple of questions here:
1) Are you using a MSA account by any chance?
2) When you turn on two-factor authentication, do you get any error message?
3) Did you try with different browsers?
Looking forward to your response!

What is the windows server 2013 license version than I need to install workflow manager 1.0

what is the windows server 2013 license version than I need to install workflow manager 1.0?
enterprise or standard? can I install it on datacenter?
please provide me with the reference.
thanks

Workflow Manager will work with either SharePoint Enterprise or Standard. It doesn't work well with Foundations since it depends on User Profiles to pass user identity to the workflow. And yes you can install it on Windows Server datacenter edition.
Here are the supported platforms for installation
http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/jj193487(v=azure.10).aspx
This article talks about integration with SharePoint and states that Foundation is not supported, but it doesn't differentiate between the Server editions, so any edition will do.

Creating HashTag in sharepoint 2013 community discussion board

We are trying to create new HashTag in sharepoint 2013 community discussion board. But we are unable to do so. It is getting treated as plain text. We are able to use existing hashtag on same discussion board but not able to create new one. Is not that
a loophole in social feature of sharepoint.

http://www.chrismcnulty.net/blog/Lists/Posts/Post.aspx?ID=101
if you try to create a brand new hashtag there, it gets created in the Keywords MMS group and not the Hashtags MMS group. You need edit rights to add a keyword to a document. And more problematic, the "Enterprise Keywords" feature was introduced as a way
to consume Office doc keywords as a catalyst to social following in SharePoint 2010.

Installation error for security update 2013-004 version 1.0

Hi,
I receive a 'unexpected error' message when I try to install security update 2013-004 version 1.0. I have tried updating from computer and manually downloading 'security update 2013-004', but still receive the exact same error message. I'm on a macbook pro mid 2011, Mac OS X Lion 10.7.5.

Try verifying your hard disk with Disk Utility in the Utilities folder.
After launching Disk Utility, in the left pane, click on the name of your hard disk.
In the right pane, click the First Aid tab and then click the Verify Disk button.
If the result is OK, then click the button to Repair Disk Permissions.
If the Verify Disk test result reports errors, you will need to reboot the computer in Recovery HD and use Disk Utility there to repair the disk. See instructions by Kappy.
Afterwards, try installing the security update again.
As for the cause of the unexpected error, look at the log reports with Console in the Utilities folder.

VS 2013 Community Edition lost its license: SP324098: Your browser could not complete the operation.

I have installed Visual Studio 2013 Community Edition on a brand new Windows 7 machine and registered with a new Microsoft account. This was for testing purpose to see how well the new Community Edition would work in comparison to the Professional Edition.
At first, everything looked good.
Didn't use it in a while now, and just came back to see that it's complaining about a license. What a warm welcome. It gave me a link to "renew" the license and I clicked it. It opened that pre-login window, then came back and said this:
SP324098: Your browser could not complete the operation.
That's all. Every single time I retry. What does it even mean? I don't want my browser (IE11 by the way) to do anything, I just want that license to use my free Visual Studio edition. Is it not free after all, was it just a trial that has now expired? I
mean, why should I get a 1500$ application for free... That just doesn't sound real.
Anyway, can somebody tell me what went wrong and whether/how it can be fixed?

Okay, something's badly broken here in my region. I took an older VM with Windows 8.1 and an installed VS 2013 (from MSDN, with licence), uninstalled VS 2013, installed all Windows updates, and then installed the VS 2015 CTP 5. It has installed fine, but
at the first start, it says:
Sorry, we ran into a problem.
SP324098: Your browser could not complete the operation.
At least I can ignore the problem and continue in this case. After starting, under "Register product", it first said "licence expires in 14 days" and I was logged in with my primary account. Must have been from the previous installation.
The error code appeared here as well. After logging out and registering again, it seems to work. And my default browser here is Chrome and I never took special care about IE. In VS 2013 CE, however, I don't even get the login form.
So this is an entirely different machine, it has never seen a community edition of Visual Studio nor the separate account I used for it. Yet it failed with the very same error message. What the heck does that error code even mean and what is the real cause
of it?? Can you please tell me the truth about it? I don't want to chase symptoms or try every guess somebody might have (retry, restart, reinstall) – that leads us nowhere. This error appears for a reason, I hope, and somebody must be able to find that out.
(If not, I'm really wondering what Microsoft engineers do and whether they know their product.)
If this doesn't improve, I honestly and urgently suggest you drop this broken licensing implementation and replace it by what there was before (i.e. product key or nothing at all) or use another proven technology. This thing just isn't stable or reliable
and will cause trouble.
