I wanna install Visual Studio 6.0 on my Windows 10 computer but I have some problems. If you can help me, I will be great. Firstly, I click to Setup file to install, and than I saw this screen below
I click "No". After that, I saw This screen below
And I click "Tamam (its mean "OK")" and than I saw this screen
And, after I wait 45 min, screen is shown like this in below
How can I install it on my Windows 10 computer ?
Computer is waiting like be locked as shown as like last picture
Install it on a Windows XP Virtual Machine. I think this is the last officially supported OS.
UPDATE
I could not find anything explicitly stating this, only this Visual Studio 6.0: Installation and Setup and this Microsoft Visual studio 6.0 on Microsoft Product Lifecycle
I think VS 6.0 was released in 1998 - Microsoft Visual Studio 6.0 on Wikipedia. I remember using it til 2004 when we upgraded to Visual Studio 2005. Which we now still have in some good old Windows XP MVs.

I would like to make an app for my Lumia stuck on Win 10.0.14393 (or 1609) using C++/WinRT. I've created a Blank app project with
Target platform version: 10.0.17134.0 and
Target platform min. version: 10.0.14393.
The project fails to compile with the following errors:
error C2039: 'DisconnectUnloadedObject': is not a member of 'winrt::BlankApp2::implementation::MainPageT'
error C2039: 'UnloadObject': is not a member of 'winrt::BlankApp2::implementation::MainPageT'
Is this a bug or intentional behavior? Please note, that setting any newer min. version results in successful build.
The latest version of C++/WinRT can support all versions of Windows 10, including 14393 and older versions as well.
Keep in mind that C++/WinRT is both a library and a language projection. The language projection provides access to Windows APIs targeting a given version of Windows. Each version introduces new APIs. So if you want to target a minimum version of Windows, you need to ensure that you limit yourself to the APIs available on that version of Windows. I would however recommend using the latest compiler and the latest Windows SDK as they include many bug fixes.
I suggest you use Visual Studio 2015 when targeting older C++/WinRT and Windows 10 updates. My impression is that most of those were delivered on top of Visual Studio 2015 with Visual Studio 2015 updates and Windows 10 SDK updates and C++/WinRT updates.
When using Visual Studio 2015 with C++/WinRT, you will need the latest update, Update 3. Check for updates and make sure that your copy of Visual Studio 2015 has the most recent updates. I was just using an install of Visual Studio 2015 Enterprise to recompile something that compiles fine with Visual Studio 2017 and found that I was missing tools and SDKs including for Win 10 SDK 10.0.14393 that were in the Update 3 which I had not yet installed.
You can also go to Programs and Feature from within Control Panel, look for Microsoft Visual Studio 2015 in the list and then do a right mouse click and Change which will allow you to check what is installed and change anything.
Working with C++/WinRT over the last few months I have used both the Visual Studio 2017 Community Edition and the Visual Studio 2015 Enterprise Edition.
I have seen differences when moving a solution from VS 2015 to VS 2017 that required me to review the Properties page of the solution. See also the discussion in synchronizing SDK with Windows 10 update and using WinRT with Standard C++
Working with the latest Windows 10 updates and VS 2017 works best for me because I am able to target the recent Windows 10 updates. However I have found that trying to target older Windows 10 updates with VS 2017 can be problematic.
I'm sorry that I can not be more specific. This whole area of C++/WinRT and Windows 10 updates has much more cowboy than I would like though it now seems to be settling down.
C++/WinRT is a template library that was originally an open source project on GitHub. My impression is that Microsoft has acquired it and it is now a standard product offering. I believe there was a significant rewrite of C++/WinRT at one time as the Visual Studio 2015 and then Visual Studio 2017 moved to implement more of the C++17 and proposed C++20 standards and the Technical Specifications for coroutines.
This seems to be an area still changing to some extent. However most of the changing was going on with VS 2015 and the early VS 2017 along with the SDKs. It seems to be pretty solid now with the latest updates.
I have visual studio 2015 community Update 2.
I've installed Visual C++ for windows and also for mobile platforms as you can see in this picture:
The problem is that when I try to create a C++ Win32 app and click on these two templates
nothing happens and I get stuck at that screen.
As Cheers and hth Alf said, I had to reinstall the whole Visual Studio 2015 to get it working again.
Which version of windows XP does Visual Studio 2012 supports.
[Edit: Which version does VS12 supports compiling to]
I found this article:
http://blogs.msdn.com/b/vcblog/archive/2012/10/08/windows-xp-targeting-with-c-in-visual-studio-2012.aspx
That states that it supports XP SP3. But I didn't find any information for VS12 update 4.
Also, If the code I compile using VS12 doesn't crush on XP SP2 and seems to work.
Is it safe to use it? why not?
Thanks
It's correct, Visual Studio 2012 can compile binaries compatible with Windows XP SP3.
You need to install the Platform Toolset v110_xp and select it in the general configuration properties of your project.
If "safe" means that it works the answere is yes. We have 12.000 installations of our software compiled with Visual Studio 2012 (and recently Visual Studio 2013) perfectly working on Windows XP SP3.
The only big problem is run time debugging: you can't install Visual Studio 2012 on Windows XP so it could be a problem to find bugs that accidentally happens only on Windows XP.
I have compilled program in Visual Studio 2011 on Windows consumer preview with v110 toolkit (c runtime 2011) and it refuse to run on Windows XP even with needed runtime dlls for 2011 libs (from VC/redist/) folder. It says that file is not valid Win32 app. How I can get that app to run on XP?
The VS 11 Beta does not support Windows XP as a target platform (or as a development platform, just to be complete).
There have been some statements from Microsoft personnel that this might change for RTM.
But I wouldn't hold my breath.
If you're adventurous, here's an article that describes in detail how you can create your own library that will smooth over the things that prevent the runtime library from allowing an application to load on WinXP:
How to get Visual C++ 2012 (VC 11 Beta) statically linked CRT and MFC applications to run on Windows XP
Update (15 June 2012):
Microsoft has reconsidered not allowing VC++ 2012 to target Window XP. Unfortunately the decision came too late to allow targeting WinXP to be supported in RTM, so you'll have to wait for a subsequent update:
Targeting Windows XP with C++ in Visual Studio 2012
Applications compiled with Visual Studio 11 do not run on XP. Please vote for this request -- perhaps Microsoft will realize their mistake then.
Use a 32-bit cross-compiler, or rebuild the app on Windows XP for 32-bit.
Unfortunately there are changes to the PE version as well as the CRT for Visual Studio 2011 which means, even with binary modification (yuk) XP is not supported. To quote the answer from Microsoft:
Visual Studio 11 Beta doesn't support Windows XP. As to Visual Studio
11 final release, there's no such information published yet. We will
refer to the official website for supported OS.
Could somebody please point me at the download link for Visual C++ 2005 Express x64 (AKA Visual Studio 8) before I am sectioned under the mental health act?
If I want any GCC point release from the last 10 years I can get it in under 30 seconds from a single page. Microsoft's website is a nightmare beyond imagining. Even Google can't get me what I'm looking for. Hours of my life have now disappeared. Please don't post a link to an article from Microsoft about this because I have read them all. I've been through pages which link to other pages, which then loop back on themselves, or point to dead links, or purport to offer a download but which actually link back to marketing material and stock photographs of people laughing at computer screens.
Thanks
Try the last one here Microsoft Windows SDK Update for Windows Vista and .NET Framework 3.0.
That will give you Visual C++ 2005 SP1.
There is not a separate package for installing Visual C++ 2005 Express Edition -- or any of the Visual Studio 2005 products -- on x64.
In order to target x64 in VS2005, I'm sorry to say, I'm going to give you this link: How to: Configure Visual C++ Projects to Target 64-Bit Platforms
If you just want the 64-bit compiler (no IDE) then you can download it as part of the Windows Vista SDK.
