    Let's say I have Windows 8 Let's say I install Visual Studio Visual Studio comes with a host of utilities hidden all round the hard drive. When I install a new version I like to peek at the VS Start Menu to get an idea of what useful utility are new / updated / removed. But.. how do I do that with Windows 8? I don't remember the location of ILDASM and it doesn't show up while searching on the app screen.. :~

      ILDASM should be in the Program Files (x86)\Microsoft SDKs\Windows\v_WhateverTheLatestVersionIs_\Bin\NETFX 4.0 Tools folder, with a 64-bit version in the x64 sub-folder.

            It would be on the "All Apps" screen, grouped under Visual Studio (or something like that).

                Go to the Start Screen and type 'V' or 's' (for spy++). However, they number of utilities added is shrinking. If you right click on spy++ and open the containing folder, there isn't much there. (Many of the old utilities are now in the SDK or equivalents can by found in SysInternals. I think Depends is available entirely separately.)

                  1. Right click the Visual Studio tile (or search for it in apps and right-click the search result), 2) Select Open file location at the bottom of the screen. You are now browsing the start menu folder.

                      Are you kidding? All these little start-menu-replacer companies are probably owned by Microsoft! The tried-and-true methods of screwing your customers are always the best.
