After installing Visual Studio 2019 I can't find gacutil.exe - visual-studio-2019

I'm trying to install gacutil in order to remove some assemblies from the GAC. My understanding is that it's included with Visual Studio, so I installed Visual Studio Community Edition 2019. gacutil.exe does not seem to be included with the installation. What am I missing?

I had the same issue and was able to fix it by installing the .NET Framework 4.6.1 SDK component shipped with VS 2019 Community.

Why are all my templates in visual studio gone?

I recently installed Visual Studio for Mac 2022. I had VS Mac 2019, and it had the .net templates. When I installed VS 2022, all my previous .net templates were gone, even though I selected to install .net templates. When I open VS 2019, it has all of the templates installed, even the ones that I installed with only VS 2022. Is there any way to fix this, or should I just use VS 2019? 2022 vs 2019
Could you please try to set your .NET SDK path?
You can locate it under Preferences->SDK Locations->.NET Core and set the path as /usr/local/share/dotnet/dotnet.
Hope this can help solve the problem.

The Other - .NET project templates in Visual Studio for Mac 2019 require the Mono framework.
In Visual Studio for Mac 2022 the project templates that require Mono have been removed.
Instead you can install the .NET SDK use the project templates that target .NET 6.0, .NET Core 3.1, and these are available from the Web and Console section, if the associated SDKs are installed.
To install the .NET SDK you can either download them directly from the download page or re-run the installer and ensure that .NET is selected.

Where in the Visual Studio installer do I find the BuildTools component?

In which Workload of the Visual Studio 2017 Community 15.9 installation would I find the VS2017 BuildTools component?
I am looking at the workloads in the installer options and there seems not to be any workload that has such a thing.
I even searched in the component in the Individual Components tab also but couldn't find anything matching the exact string.
The reason I am looking for it is that when I try to build the source code for ASP.NET MVC v5.2.6, I get the error message as follows.
> build
Could not find MSBuild.exe. Please install the VS2017
BuildTools component or a workload that includes it.
*** BUILD FAILED **
I had written to the ASP.NET MVC team earlier about this message before I had installed Visual Studio 2017. I had had just Visual Studio 2019 then and they asked that I install Visual Studio 2017.
I already have MS Build at various locations. I had multiple versions of MSBuild even before having installed VS 2017.
Build Tools for Visual Studio 2017 is still available as an online installer. You can get the current version here: https://visualstudio.microsoft.com/thank-you-downloading-visual-studio/?sku=BuildTools&rel=15.

this project is incompatible with the current edition of visual studio

I developed an application into Visual Studio 2012. Now I installed Visual Studio 2015 and run the same application into Visual Studio 2015. but i found an error "this project is incompatible with the current edition of visual studio" I searched it again and again and found many solutions but these solutions are not working for me.
The problem was that I wasn't select Microsoft Web Development during installation period so that whenever I opened my ASP.net MVC project in that installed IDE. It showed me error this project is incompatible with the current edition of visual studio. So I updated this installed 2015 Visual Studio by Control Panel\All Control Panel Items\Programs and Features. Now it is working
This stackoverflow provides better answer for various other project file failures which cause same error as above.

OpenCV with Visual Studio 2015 ( msvcr120d.dll error )

I have tried to link OpenCV with VS Express 2015 as I was doing in VS 2013 but I got msvcr120d.dll error. It says that this .dll was not found in my system.
Any Ideas of how I can link OpenCV with VS 2015 Express?
Prebuild Libs are only for VS11 and VS12 this is Visual studio 2012 and 2013. You can build and release your own OpenCV libs for Visual Studio 2015 comm. edition.
Just use this tutorial
Install OpenCV Visual Studio 2015
I managed to make the OpenCV Debug configuration working in Visual Studio 2015 Community Edition by installing Visual Studio 2013 Express on my system. As the result, the file msvcr120d.dll appeared in Windows\System32, and after the reboot of the computer I was able to debug OpenCV example in Visual Studio 2015.
Installed Visual Studio 2013 Community Edition on a different machine and then copied the dlls msvcp120d.dll and msvcr120d.dll into Windows\System32\ of my work machine. Worked a treat for opencv 2.4 x64 development.
This is not required for opencv 3+ as there are vs14 binaries available.
-- edit 23/8/16--
Not working so well, actually. Runtime errors arising in msvcr120d.dll when vectors containing opencv objects including Mat and KeyPoint are deconstructed, or are constructed using a large reserve.

MVC 4 - VS 2010 install unable to update NuGet

I am installing MVC 4 on a box with an up to date VS 2010 and get NuGet install errors. The NuGet installed already is the newest available. I have tried installing MVC 4 with both NuGet installed already and not installed.
The error asks for NuGet.msi, but I have been unable to find that.
Are there any known issues that could cause this?
We also had problems with nuget update. This fix help us: Visual Studio 2010 SP1 Hotfix available
More details: NuGet Package Manager
Review current release notes/known issues on the NuGet Docs site, including details and solution for about a common upgrade failure (Visual Studio 2010 SP1 Hotfix available)
Added:
Also you can try to install MVC 4 with Microsoft Web Platform Installer after uninstalling Nuget.
