Do Windows Server 2019 support Visual Studio 2012?
Hi Reza_Ameri ,
Thank you for you reply. Unfortunately, the project is legacy. It needs to run on Visual Studio 2012 only. I tried to upgrade to Visual Studio 2017, then re-built to the compatiable version. It didn't work. There are too many dependencies since Windows XP (may be older) which take times to fix it. The company decided to not move to new Visual Studio version due to costing too many man hours.
However, the company has planned to upgrade to Windows Server 2019 and they would like to know if Visual Studio 2012 still works on a new Windows Server.
On my opinion, it should be fine as long as we can install Visual Studio 2012 but the company needs the clear and precise answer to confirm. That's why I came to from this community and hope I could get some answer to show them.
Because Windows Server 2019 supports new standards and .NET which is not available in the previous version of Visual Studio.
