Windows 10 Visual Studio 2012 Update 4 install error


Recommended Posts

Hi,

 

Has anyone found a solution for the Windows Program Compatibility error at the start of Visual Studio 2012 Update 4. Update 1 and 2 have been installed but Update 3 and 4 give the same error. I have been looking on the web for a solution and found the same issues with windows 8.1 preview. I have tried to install the update from web in visual studio, downloaded the update from msdn and tried to apply it and i have changed a group policy "Turn off Program Compatibility Assistant" but still the same error message. Any suggestions?

 

Thanks,

Relu

I'd be interested in hearing how someone solved this as well. I beat my head against this brick wall for a few hours (changing policy settings, registry changes, you name it). In the end I just surrendered and installed Visual Studio 2013 with Update 3 and it had no problems on Windows 10.
