Visual Studio 2012 - no MVC project template, no 4.5

Question

I have just installed visual studio 2012 ultimate. In the new project dialog I have

• No .net framework 4.5 option
• No MVC project templates

Answer 1

I uninstalled and then reinstalled and the mvc project templates & .net framework are there now.

I think the problem was that I was installing from a mounted .iso file.

For the reinstall I set my ISO software to remount at startup.

Still pretty poor that a repair did not fix this !!

Answer 2

I thought the same when I first had my 2012, I had to manually download the file

MVC .Net 4.5

Hopefully this helps you :)

Answer 3

Try to install ASP.NET and Web Tools 2012.2 update for Visual Studio 2012

This worked for me.
