    It never worked, but I was still able to access downloads on msdn.microsoft.com. Now that page says: > Good news! Your subscription(s) has been migrated to a new portal. Not good news to me. Using the exact same login credentials: > Sorry, we couldn't find any downloads for you. Thanks, Microsoft. :mad: And yes, at some point several months ago I called their help #, was on hold for 1/2 hour, ended up talking to someone from India who said she had to escalate the problem, and no one ever got back to me. I ignored the issue because the MSDN site still worked. :sigh: Marc

      Well, that's one I have rarely experienced. My working hypothesis is that when MS staff start emitting Cerenkov radiation they are sent to the MSDN gulag to work on documentation where their descent into dementia can be ignored. Oh, was I just unkind ?

        Works on my machine! ;P On the blue bar at the top, do you have "Showing: ..." with a drop-down arrow next to it? Try clicking that to see if you've got multiple options. I have "Visual Studio Professional (MPN)" and "Visual Studio Dev Essentials", with a different list of downloads for each.

          When you log in the visualstudio.com did you get asked if your account was "Provided by your employer" or a "Personal Account"? (or something along those lines) If so, I found out that you always have to choose "Personal Account", even if it's employer supplied. I found that nugget buried under a trash heap in the corner of the internet.
