I found myself in need for J# of all things for something with work. Â J# is the MS answer to migrating Java code to .net.
Anyways it turns out I was able to find the web installer, but the link for generating a license code no longer exists. Â However, the ISO’s never needed the code. Â Except they aren’t available for download.
Or so I thought.
Turns out they are still there, but MS pulled the pages.
- Visual Basic 2005 Express Edition
- Visual C# 2005 Express Edition
- Visual C++ 2005 Express Edition
- Visual J# 2005 Express Edition
- Visual Web Developer 2005 Express Edition
I figure it’ll help someone out there.
The Express editions AFAIK don’t really need activation, they just need a key to be filled in the registry. Here’s the activation for C# Express 2008:
Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00
[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\VCSExpress\9.0\Registration]
“Params”=”1”
sweet!
thank you it works
Thank you very much
The SP1 patches for each of the above are available here. I don’t know if you can find them by searching, I still had a direct link lying around:

I put a great number of this stuff here…
Although I don’t know if things like .net 1.0 sp1/2 are even worth trying to track down…
Thanks for the registry tip – this was a great help!
Great info
It really helped me
