Visual Studio 2012 Express Is Suddenly “incompatible With This Version Of Windows”?

                                                                                          I'm running Visual Studio Express 2012 on Windows 7.  I've been running it with no problems for several months now.

  Last Friday, when I shut down my PC, a lot of Windows updates were  installed.  This morning, when I started up and opened a VS2012  solution, I got this error message:

  This program has known compatibility issues  ...

  Visual Studio 2012 Express for Windows Desktop is incompatible with this version of Windows.   There's a button for Run Program, and when I click it,  the solution opens normally.  I haven't changed anything about my  Windows configuration.  This happens every time I open a solution.  Did  MS release a flawed patch in the batch of updates that got applied last  Friday?

  EDIT: I'm not sure why people are voting to close this question.  The  answer that's been linked to isn't related to my issue; that answer  seems to pertain to trying to open a VS2012 project in VS2010.  I'm  trying to open a VS2012 project in VS2012.  If you really think that the  question needs to be closed, please let me know why in the comments, so  that I can change it appropriately.

  The .NET updates installed on Friday were:

  

• KB2805226
  
• KB2805221
  
• KB2804582
  

  UPDATE: I gave up, more or less, and clicked the "Don't show this  window again" checkbox on the error window.  Visual Studio seems to be  running ok.

                                                         I received the same message on Visual Studio 2012 Premium (on PC  where Windows 7 re-installed in last month) - the suggested fix was  "Update for Microsoft Visual Studio 2012 (KB2781514)" which seems to  have fixed it
