Building Duplicati in Visual Studio 2012 on Windows 7

So what have you selected? Just .NET desktop development? Or is anything else needed?

If I select a full Installation of VS 2017 Community it is about 50GB and that is too much for my SSD (my IntelliJ Ultimate Java IDE from Jetrains is less than 1.2 GB) :

Oof - it was long enough ago that I honestly don’t recall exactly what I selected, but according the VS Help->About this is what I’ve got installed:

  • Visual Basic 2017
  • Visual C# 2017
  • ASP.NET Template Engine 2017
  • Common Azure Tools
  • NuGet Package manager
  • Visual Studio Code Debug Adapter Host Package

I’m pretty sure all I asked for was C# so the rest must have just been included automatically,
