In order to fix that, one should:

1. Open Programs and Features find Visual Studios related version there, click on it,
2. Click to Change. Then the setup window will appear,
3. Select Web Developer Tools there and continue to setup.

It will download or use the setup media if exist. After the setup windows may restart, and you are ready to have fun with your Web Developer Tools now.

Answer 6

Visual Studio 2013 no longer has separate project types for different ASP.Net features.

You must select .NET Framework 4.5 (or higher) in order to see the ASP.NET Web Application template (For ASP.NET One).
So just select Visual C# > Web > ASP.NET Web Application, then select the MVC checkbox in the next step.

Note: Make sure not to select the C# > Web > Visual Studio 2012 sub folder.
