You can't just download it - it's not free. Have a look at the following VS 2005 product comparison chart - Visual Source Safe (VSS) is only available with the Team System version of VS:

Have a look at a similar forum that discusses this issue for more information:

- 0Is there not a page where I can enter the license authorization number and download it? I would rather not have to wait a couple of days for the media to arrive by mail.
- 0If you are an MSDN subscriber, then you should have been emailed a subscriber ID, and a link to the MSDN subscriber downloads page, from which you are able to download all of the MS software items to which you have access.

Okay, this response is not clear. Are you saying that you can NOT purchase VSS in any manner, unless you purchase VS Team addition?
Because this is what you infer with your statements. If this is so, then why do we all see Visual Source Safe.NET for sale all over the place?
Why would a company not sell a product unless someone spends a ridiculous 4K+? We don't need or want all those bells and whistles (never mind the fact that it took a good 4 months for us to find someone at Microsoft who actually understand what *was* in each 'edition' of VS.NET--that was a lot of fun).
So could you please be clear? Are you saying that all those ads selling VSS.NET for 4-500 dollars are illegal or something?
- 0The question to which I replied asked if there was a way in which it is possible to download Visual Source Safe. I answered that if you have an MSDN subscription at the appropriate level (eg. Universal), it is possible to download the product immediately, before the DVDs ship. I made no inferences about whether or not it is possible to purchase VS.NET separately.
In my first post on this thread, I indicated that it VSS comes with an appropriate MSDN subscription. It is true that VS is also available to purchase separately, as you have indicated. A quick search of Google reveals many links to purchase the product, and anyone who followed the link that I posted in my first reply would also have been able to find this out by reading the other thread. - 0

- 0Please see the first reply in the thread. VSS 2005 is not free -- you must either buy it from a retailer, or download it through the MSDN program.

I am lost, I cannot find the Visual Source Save. I have never used it for souce control before i came here a few months ago. I took over a position, and the incumbant is gone. My new work computer started blue screening after the lastest patch, so I rebuilt it. I have the M$ VS 2005 pro cds (2), the M$ VS 2005 pro MSDN CDs (3), the M$ VS 2005 sql Developer cds (32bit x2, 64 bit x2), all holografic genuine, and i have 16 computers in my building, all with MS Visual Studio 2005, and the source safe client on them. No one has any clue where the Source safe client install is. Is it on one of these cds, am i missing a CD? Respectfully Requested - Jon
