VS2010 not show up if SQL Server 2012 installed before
sql-server-2012, visual-studio-2010
Solution
This is a bug.
A workaround is to navigate to C:\ProgramData\Microsoft\Windows\Start Menu\Programs\Microsoft Visual Studio 2010, right-click on the shortcut called Microsoft Visual Studio 2010, and select Pin to Start. After this, there will be two shortcuts targeting devenv (one titled Microsoft SQL Server Data Tools and one titled Microsoft Visual Studio 2010)

Problem
I installed them in this order: - Install SQL Server 2012 SP1 x64 - Visual Studio 2010 This is the proper order that other developers recommended and as i did. The problem is, if SQL Server 2012 installed on the system, VS2010 shortcuts are not show up. How can I fix this? Note: OS is Windows 8.
