Product key

To unlock the product, enter the product key by going to Help -> Register Product from within Visual Studio. To silently apply a product key during setup remotely to an existing machine, follow the instructions in the Visual Studio Administrator Guide.

Installation

Visual Studio Professional offers a new installation experience with the Visual Studio Installer, a web based .exe enabling you to download and install only what you need. Visual Studio no longer supports installation using an .iso file; users who need to do an offline or remote installation can use a Layout switch. For information on how to do this, see Create an Offline Installation of Visual Studio.

Language

The Visual Studio Installer also enables language selection at installation time, eliminating the need to separately download and manage language packs.
