Is it safe to install Visual Studio 2015 Preview side-by-side Visual Studio 2013? Can I uninstall VS 2015 Preview if VS 2013 stops working?

    Yes, it is safe to install Visual Studio 2015 RC side by side to Visual Studio 2013. Both run without any problem. However I wouldn't advice Visual Studio 2015 RC on a machine that has Visual Studio 2012 already installed.

    I recently installed Visual Studio 2015 RC on a machine with Visual Studio 2012 already installed. After installing VS 2015 RC, I could not run VS 2012 projects on VS 2012 instance. However VS 2015 RC projects run without a problem.

    To resolve the issue, I tried to restore file associations in VS 2012 as described here. By doing so, I managed to open a solution with all the projects having exclamation marks. I decided to uninstall VS 2015 RC which also removes some of the shared components from VS 2012 too.

    Finally, I found a way to restore the removed shared components by running an update from this MSDN blog.
