    Just downloaded the community version and installed it again. It says that the license is expired. So I recommend the SharpDevelop IDE. At least it works and is free. :thumbsup:

    The 'license' need to be renewed periodically although it is free. Basically you just login your Microsoft account.

      Hi guys, I was looking for the visual studio express 2017 and the site of Microsoft is offering me the visual studio 2017 community. Have you used it? Where are the differences? I am interested on practice mainly with C++, C# and WPF is it better?

      M.D.V. ;) If something has a solution... Why do we have to worry about?. If it has no solution... For what reason do we have to worry about? Help me to understand what I'm saying, and I'll explain it better to you Rating helpful answers is nice, but saying thanks can be even nicer.

      Community (same feature as Professional) replaces "Express", which has different version for Web/Desktop..etc. Community limitation is number of user within a "Team". If your team (or company) has more than 5 developers, you cannot use Community to build your applications. "5" is the magic number to Microsoft "TFS online" too.

        I don't have one; I don't want a subscription (even if it is free).
