    Why uninstall it. I have all 2005-2008-2010-2012-2013 installed on same machine side-by-side.

    I'm diskspace limited, and junk old versions whenever everything I had to support them for is updated to the newest version. Currently got 2003-2008-2010-2012 installed; and I'm hoping to get the last major 2003 project (finally) updated later this year. Hopefully I'll be able to boot 2008 within a year too.

    IMO VS2013 is not less stable than 2012...

      Was this intended as a reply to me? I don't see how anything I wrote could be read as a comment on stability.

            Yes, uninstall VS2012 and go back to VS2010, you'll be a lot happier.

            - I would love to change the world, but they won’t give me the source code.

              I haven't had a play with it yet, but yes, there are many improvements that were need to VS to handle native javascript and html/css projects better.

                Stick each in their own VM. Sorted.

                fine on the desktop, but too much overhead for my wee ultrabook. Anyway, that is just giving in to defects......from an operational excellence point of view, 'tis bad!

                  Why uninstall it. I have all 2005-2008-2010-2012-2013 installed on same machine side-by-side. I think you have to ask yourself "should I install 2013?", in first place. 2013 has very few new things (for sure it's not a new version worth a whole number). I found two features useful: 1. Inline editing of referenced type (if it's in your code) - it nice but not a must have 2. 64 bit edit and continue (which is only good if you in win development) After playing around with it an reading about it I can tell you two main differences: 1. If you want the new framework you must have a new VS (it's not new, we saw it at every VS-.NET version) 2. MSBuild no more part of .NET framework (so the only way to build is use VS!) I have 20 years of experience with Microsoft - and the last 3 years I'm concerned about the way...

                  I'm not questioning your powers of observation; I'm merely remarking upon the paradox of asking a masked man who he is (V).

                  I probably wont uninstall it on my desktop, but on my ultrabook I will when space gets tight.

                      So now that a few of the die hards have probably been running with VS2013 for a while now and have been running the final release since it became available last week, is it in you opinion safe to uninstall VS2012? Or is there something fundamentally broken that says "no hang onto VS2012 that bit longer"? (I'm talking about PRO versions if that makes any difference). Cheers,

                      I've actually got 2010, 2012 and 2013 installed -- mainly because of other people: if I'm working on their code, I have to stick to whatever they're using... the good news is that all three of them seem to coexist just fine -- no problems yet...

                        Dunno for VS2012, but as a lesson from earlier versions, go grab some food and prepare for several hours for uninstalling.

                          I normally run VS from a VM so I never have to uninstall them. Just get a new VM and run the new version. If you don't like it, junk the VM. If you like it, run the VMs in parallel. I still like VS9 (2008). It is so much better than VS10 (2010) and VS11(2012). It is also a lot faster. VS10, 11 and 12 are as slow as Eclipse i.e. they takes at least 2 minutes to start on a netbook. Compare that with the speed of VS6, 7.1, 8, 9 - they're up in about 10s!
