There are 2 application one developed in BizTalk 2013R2.
Other one in BizTalk 2016.
Now I need to support and do changes for the application in one machine.
There is no common artifacts for these.
Is this possible to handle both these application in one machine?
Can 2 BizTalk version possible to install in one machine?
Please help
As you need to have the BizTalk SDKs installed, and I don't think you can have both installed in parallel, then no, you can't have a Development environment for both BizTalk 2013R2 and BizTalk 2016.

Is there any hidden tool from MS we can use for BizTalk application migration prior to load solution into VS2015 ? I need some information about what are characteristic we may need to change specially BizTalk.btproj solution to load all project file etc., wonder to know easy approach migrating BizTalk application solution if any.
As various blogs posts and MSDN threads you needed to have an intermediate Development BizTalk environment (BizTalk 2010) and then upgrading it to the later version like BizTalk 2013/R2 and up.
You can download the developer edition here and install the SDK so you can open it in Visual Studio.
The only other way to migrate is to create new BizTalk Projects in Visual Studio 2015 / BizTalk 2016 environment, and then copying the artefacts such as Schemas, maps and re-creating any Orchestrations.
In either case you will have to do extensive retesting as there are certain changes such as the XSLT compiled transform that may cause you issues
No need for a hidden tool. Visual Studio is the tool.
When you open a downlevel Solution, Visual Studio will attempt to update any project and provide a report of what was automatically updated and what could not be updated, requiring manual intervention.
You can do this on a copy of you Solution to get a preview of any work necessary for the real upgrade.
Coming from BizTalk Server 2006, you will need an intermediate version to eventually target BizTalk Server 2016. You can download BizTalk Server 2010 from MSDN. All you need to install is the SDK. You don't need to setup/configure full BizTalk Server.
I'm trying to configure a BizTalk server in BizTalk Server 2013 R2. I'm using Windows 10 and a local DB.
I can create the Enterprise SSO and the Business Rule Engine but not the BizTalk Server Group and the BizTalk Runtime.
It gives me the following error:
Failed to read "Software\Microsoft\BizTalk Server\3.0\Administration" from the registry.
The network path was not found.
I've tried everything I could imagine, any ideas as why I can't create the group?
EDIT: After trying everything I could imagine, the problem was in the name of my machine that was too big. Because of that, BizTalk could not write in the registry.
BizTalk Server 2013 R2 is not supported on Windows 10.
You can look this up in the official BizTalk Server documentation, which you can find here: https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/jj248697.aspx
Supported for BizTalk Server 2013 R2 are: Windows Server 2012 R2, Windows Server 2012, Windows 8.1 and Windows 7 SP1.
Windows 10 is not supported.
After trying everything I've searched on the web, I finally managed to solved the problem.
Because my machine name was too long (15 characters), BizTalk could not edit the registry. After changing it to 4 characters long, I solved the problem and I was able configure the server.
I have a Visual Studio 2010 Ultimate installed on my local machine. I used it for c# development for quite some time.
Now I have a project for BizTalk development. When I click New Project I do not see the BizTalk project option.
What do I need to do to get BizTalk projects on my Visual Studio 2010 Ultimate?
You will need to download a version of BizTalk from Microsoft and install at least the developer tools and SDK. But usually you will want to do a complete install unless you already have a BizTalk Server you can deploy to for development purposes.
See this thread What do you need to develop in BizTalk
Step1:
Launch BizTalk Setup>Modify>Unselect 'Developer tools SDK'>Complete the installation.
Step 2:
Launch BizTalk Setup>Modify>Select 'Developer tools SDK'>Complete the installation.
After you have performed Step1 and Step 2, or you may have not Installed Developer Tools SDK then perform only Step 2.
Start>>Visual Studio 2010 >> Biztalk >> Biztalk Empty Project>> If you now see it then you can assume that your Developer Tools have been successfully installed.

Is a (full) BizTalk 2010 installation needed to let a build server (TFS2010) build BizTalk 2010 solutions/projects ?
As per my knowledge, BizTalk 2010 installation is not required. You only need below components.
Project Build Component available under Additional Software(to build the project)
Developer Tools and SDK (to run tests)
I did find an apparent exception where if you deal with anything EDI related, it seems to require the full BizTalk install(not configuration). I wanted to add this footnote for people experiencing compile errors where local compile works fine.
We recently upgraded our biztalk server 2006R2 to SP1. The problem is that we're having some small issues now, for example the administration console crashes when I browse for a folder if I want to make a file send/receive port.
Any idea what might cause this problem?
I'm having no problems when I browse for a folder with our normal explorer and then copy paste its address into the biztalk folder browser.
Make sure you update towards the latest CU for your service pack.
For BizTalk 2006 R2 with SP1, this is CU4.
See http://support.microsoft.com/kb/2682056 for more information on CU4 for BizTalk 2006 SP1.
If this still does not help, there is a temporary workaround to export/import bindings of existing receive locations/send ports with a FILE adapter. This allows you to still create the ports/locations you need and unblocks the situation.
In any case, if the problem persists, you might want to check with Microsoft about the issue.
That is in case your license includes the extended support option which lasts until 12 July 2016.
If you don't have extended support, the support ended on July 11th 2011 I'm afraid...
