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

http://questiontrack.com/visual-stu...uo-1093949.html


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
