It prompts that it may be damaged or corrupted. Expected Results: No install issues.

Basically I am a fan of Visual Studio as an IDE and last night I started exploring Visual Studio Code. Visual Studio has quite awesome features like Profiling and IntelliSense and I see that IntelliSense is in VS Code too, so I am trying it and will give feedback, but basically I will already use Visual Studio for mac to develop for android, ios and mac so why not node too and when it comes for it why not even go language.

My point, there is no better IDE than VisualStudio hands down and I hope for a day when I can do all my development work on it. Anyways I hope this feature will come to VisualStudio Mac soon. Agreed and I too uninstalled VS for Mac a long time ago, for the specific reason. After using VS Code for 6+ months, I can tell you its cons.

Is a hypervisor-based virtualization solution that makes it easy to run any number of operating systems inside separate windows on your Mac desktop. For developers, this means you can simultaneously run Xcode on Mac and Visual Studio on Windows 8. The Parallels window behaves like a normal Mac window, so you can copy content from your desktop and place it directly into the Parallels virtual machine instance just as you would from one Mac window to another. You can even run Visual Studio (and other Windows applications) directly on the Mac OS X desktop (no Windows VM window, just the app). For cross-platform development of iOS apps, Windows Store Apps, and Windows Phone 8 apps, Parallels is unparalleled since you can work with two different operating systems and related dev tools at the same time, in the same session, from the same desktop. Directv for mac.

Here, Kurt Schmucker, a product manager at Parallels, gives a brief summary of Parallels Desktop and demonstrates how to run Windows 8 and Visual Studio 2012 on your Mac without rebooting to a Windows partition first. Kurt demonstrates the Visual Studio Windows Phone emulator running along side the Xcode iPhone emulator. @Charles: thank you for this video. As Bob Tabor mentioned, it's quite surprising.

A happy surprise, though. But, just curious, is there any reason why you presented Parallels specifically? How to rename a sheet in excel. Not sure about the voice dictation feature, but for all the rest, VMWare Fusion 5 has all the features you presented and it is half the price of Parallels. For what I know, Parallels is better than Fusion for all that's related to gaming and graphic card management, which is (most of the time) not a big deal when it comes to using a VM for development purposes. @bob and @ Tidjani: You're welcome. For cross-platform development, the experience of running VS next to Xcode is quite awesome.

I do it on my MacBook Air and love the Parallels integration with the Mac environment. Since you can easily run Windows 8 and VS in a Mac window on the OSX desktop, how could we not love that. If you're a Mac developer, then you'll love using our free tools to extend the reach of your apps to our platform and Windows 8/Windows Phone 8 users, most importantly.

Rock and roll, C. Its worth mentioning you can achieve exactly the same thing with VMWare Fusion. My current Windows 8 / Surface RT dev environment is a MacBook Air, running Wndows 8 and Visual Studio 2012 on Fusion. Then wirelessly deploying and debugging onto the Surface, works like a charm. Added to which io have XCode 4.5.2 sitting right there too, so I can do my iOS coding as well as ( important I think this if you're really into cross platform C++ ) use a LLVM / Clang based tool chain. The only downside is the level of DirectX support available through Fusion. It's not quite high enough to actually do C++ AMP on the metal.
