Hi all,

Ok, I started out with a 90 day trial of VS 2012. At the end of the 90 days we purchased a license for VS 2012. Everything has been working great! ever since then. So we recently downloaded VS 2013 and Installed it. On my cubmates computer every thing worked great and his studio now says on the start up screen "Visual Studio 2013 Ultimate". Mine however, still says "Professional 2012" even though 2013 is installed. I have uninstalled / reinstalled as well as repair installed several times to no avail. I still cant get it to beleive its now VS 2013.

So when I go in and create a MVC5 Empty project and then click 'add' on the project context menu I see no option for "Add Scaffolding Item" and so I am stuck not being able to create new MVC 5 projects!

HELP PLEASE! Anyone?!

Hi Zakuska

Welcome to asp.net forum.

Mine however, still says "Professional 2012" even though 2013 is installed.

According to your description above, you have installed VS 2012 and VS 2013 on your computer.

As we know, VS 2013 can be installed side by side with previous versions of Visual Studio or, if you have a VS 2013 pre-release, it can be installed straight over top of the pre-release.

You could choose Visual Studio 2013 first before you use it.

I am stuck not being able to create new MVC 5 projects!

In addition, if you want to use MVC 5 in VS 2012, here is the referenece for you.
