MVC in Visual Studio Express - asp.net-mvc

I got Visual Studio 2010 Express C# Edition. I'm using WinXP as OS.
How do I get ASP.Net MVC in it? I saw another question that stated that MVC was included automatically, but I cannot find it anywhere. I've also tried by installing MVC3 RC2. Didn't show up either.
Isn't it possible to use MVC with Express edition?
(I've also got VS 2008 Professional on the same computer)
Edit
I needed the Visual Studio Web Developer Edition to get MVC2.
But how do I get MVC3?
Edit 2
I have XP Home edition which is not supported by web platform installer since IIS is not included. I guess that's why MVC3 wont install in Visual Studio 2010 Express (although it installed fine on my computer which is a bit strange)

Isn't it possible to use MVC with Express edition?
Sure is. I installed VS2010 web express edition and when I choose New Project then it shows the MVC2 web application and empty web application project template. Last week I also installed MVC3 RC via the web platform installer and that shows up too.

You need to explicitly download MVC 3 RC2 from here and install it:

Microsoft released a new version of ASP.NET Web Tools for VS 2012. After installing syntax highlighting is back again.

Installing VS 2012 Update 4 was not enough.
A set of offline installers is available. The offline installers are easier to use than the Web Platform Tools invoker (WebNode11Pack.exe # ~114KB):

How to create a ASP.NET MVC web application project in VS2012

I am using Windows 8, and Visual Studio 2012. I need to create a ASP.NET MVC web application. But, when i click on Project types --> visual C# i only see windows store and not Web (as seen in VS 2008).
How can i create a MVC web application ? Help
I suspect you are using Visual Studio Express for Windows 8?
If so, you will also need Visual Studio Express for Web in order to create your MVC app.
See the different versions here: http://www.microsoft.com/visualstudio/eng/products/visual-studio-express-products
u can also user WebMatrix to create aps.net mvc project
it's free tool for asp.net from microsoft
u can get WebMatrix from here http://www.microsoft.com/web/webmatrix/
During the install, there should have been options, one of which was Visual Web Developer. Make sure that was installed (that was what it was called in VS 2010).

Can I use Visual C# 2010 express to create a MVC application?

I'm coming from java so this is entirely new to me. I have Visual C# 2010 Express installed and I'd like to create a ASP.NET MVC 3.0 (which I downloaded and installed) application. Is that possible? Should I install Visual Web Developer instead?
Yes. To create Web Apps, you need Visual Web Developer Express. Visual C# 2010 Express if for console applications and windows forms application.
You can install Visual Studio 2012 Express edition which includes ASP.NET MVC 4 from here.
I believe you need to install Visual Web Developer, yes. Basically Visual C# Express is for non-web apps, IIRC.
Note that if you're going to install a new version anyway, you might as well upgrade to VS 2012 which is now available (including in Express editions).
Please , visit http://www.asp.net/mvc and follow steps in Overview

ASP.NET MVC 1 to Azure migration

I have a web application built with ASP.NET MVC 1 in Visual Studio 2008.
How do I migrate this web application to Azure? All the tutorials are either for Visual Studio 2010 or don't work anymore. I've installed the Web Platform Installer and the Azure SDK, and in VS2010 the Azure project template is available, but not in VS2008. I've checked alot of guides, but all the download links on MSDN for anything Visual Studio 2008 related seem to be broken.
My idea was just to add an Azure deployment project to the solution, add the references to the right Azure libraries, and deploy, but I can't even get that far since I have no idea where to begin.
Much of the MVC stuff in my application is highly customized, making a migration to ASP.NET MVC 2/3/4 difficult. And since it's MVC 1, which has no tooling support for Visual Studio 2010, I would preferably avoid a migration to Visual Studio 2010.
You can go about this in two ways. You can either use cspack to package up the code and deploy to Azure or you can install an older SDK that supports Visual Studio 2008:
CSPack: http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/windowsazure/gg432988.aspx
Older SDKs: http://www.windowsazure.com/en-us/develop/downloads/archive-net-downloads/
I know 1.1 installed on VS2008 and I know 1.4 does not, not sure about the ones in between.

How do I get MVC installed into Visual Studio 2008?

Does anyone have any basic instructions for setting up a first MVC project in Visual Studio 2008? I just installed Visual Studio 2008 and I am finding various instructions on how to set up the programming environment, but it's very complicated and there is no way to tell if the route I am taking is the best one.
If I want to start developing a MVC project, what do I need to do in order to get it going?
I am very confused by the "Web Client Guidance" instructions. For example, they don't say where to put the Microsoft.Web.Mvc.dll file.
Use Visual studio 2008 sp1 to get mvc installed...
Here is the download link
To get started With MVC
System Requirements
Supported Operating Systems: Windows Server 2003; Windows Server 2008; Windows Vista; Windows XP
.NET 3.5 SP1. Visual Studio 2008, Visual Studio 2008 SP1 or Visual Web Developer 2008 SP1 are required to use certain parts of this feature.
The official Microsoft MVC links for Visual Studio 2008 now seem to be dead.
To get this working on my old Vista laptop (with Visual Studio 2008) in 2013, I did this:
- Upgraded to Visual Studio SP1
- Followed this link to download and install "AspNetMVCRC-setup.msi" (1.74 MB):
http://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?LinkID=141184&clcid=0x409
Once that was in place, my old Visual Studio let me create "Web | ASP.NET MVC Web Application" projects. Took about an hour and a half from end-to-end.
All I did was install the MVC installer and I opened their example app and it worked.\
MVC Installer
First of all, you need to download MVC from here.
After that, proceed with the installation.
You might want to refer to the tutorial for starters.
