问题
I am looking for any information that can be provided regarding problems with the use of Visual Studio 2008 and 2010 on Windows 8 (x64). I have been able find the following article that identifies the acknowledged problems for VS2010 on W8, but I cannot find any similar articles for VS2008.
Specifically, I use VS2008 for mobile development so I cannot simply upgrade the projects to 2010/2012 (yet) but I do also have some web application projects and there may even be a couple of console and/or Windows Forms projects kicking around too.
I will be wanting to install Visual Studio 2008, 2010 and 2012 along side each other.
I know that the obvious answer is to try it, but I need to be confident before I upgrade my production PC and therefore would like to hear of any issues other users may have encountered (any any workarounds that have been determined to go with them where appropriate).
回答1:
A colleague and I have both now been running VS2008, VS2010 and VS2012 along side each other on Windows 8 for some time now and have yet to discover any problem in doing this.
Therefore, I must submit that there are no problems.
For note, this includes mobile, web & report projects on VS2008, Web & WPF projects on VS2010 and Web, WPF and WinForms projects on VS2012 so I think there is a sufficient spread there to justify my answer.

No, you really no longer need that. Actually with VS2012 you don't need to upgrade the projects when you open them (at last !!!). You could open VS2010 projects without modifying their format. They will still be compatible with older versions. So you really no longer need VS2008 and VS2010.
Personally I am only using VS2012 on Windows 8 x64 and working on VS2012 projects without any issues with it.
