ASP.net Core Web Application Template is missing - asp.net

I am trying to follow this tutorial: https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/aspnet/core/tutorials/razor-pages/razor-pages-start
However, when I get to the Create a Razor Web App section, there is no template in my install of VS2017.
I have both the .net core and asp.net and web dev workloads installed. Where have I gone wrong?

Open Visual Studio (assuming its 2017) and go to: Tools > Extensions and Updates
Click "ASP.Net and web development", then select the appropriate Individual Components in the right hand pane. You'll find components such as ".Net Core 2.0 Development tools" and ASP.Net web development tools"

Have you got the latest update for your Visual Studio installation?
Head to Add or Remove Programs
find Visual Studio
Click Modify
Allow the installer to update
Install any updates that are missing
On top of that, do you have the latest version of the .NET Core SDK?

It seems I had an OS issue that caused updates to fail. Have rebuilt the PC and all working as expected now. Very much a sledgehammer approach, but this was something fundamentally wrong with the installation.

how do I find out if I have asp.net CORE

I have been asked to update my Visual Studio with asp.net core. But the update told me I already have this component. However when I look in the list for New Project I can find nothing which includes the word CORE.
How do I work this out?
I'm not talking about a single Visual Studio Project or File. I'm talking about the whole program. I have to update the program.
You need to download Tooling Preview 2 to get the asp.net core templates. That is a bug in the visual studio 2015. Please follow the following steps to resolve this issue
This is what your add new project dialog will look like once you have .net core installed correctly. Were you able to resolve this?
Is it a console app or a web app? If you have a .xproj file in your Visual Studio project, then you have ASP.NET Core web application. Probably the same for an ASP.NET Core console application.

Missing ASP.NET 5 Templates

I am following this setup tutorial
https://docs.asp.net/en/latest/tutorials/your-first-aspnet-application.html#create-a-new-asp-net-5-project
And have come across a problem. In the tutorial the instructions are as follows:
Start Visual Studio 2015. From the File menu, select New > Project.
Select the ASP.NET Web Application project template. It appears under
Installed > Templates > Visual C# > Web. Name the project ContosoBooks
and click OK.
This is fine, but in the next step :
In the New ASP.NET Project dialog, select Web Application under
ASP.NET 5 Preview Templates. Also, make sure the Host in the cloud
checkbox is not selected and click OK.
I am seeing no ASP.NET 5 Preview templates!
The only thing I am noticing is that my Authentication states No Authentication but I am signed in so I am not sure what this means or whether or not this is a factor.
The version I have installed of Visual Studio is "Community 2015".
I have already gone through the perquisites as outlined in This Article.
I am hoping that someone with a more thorough knowledge on the topic can help me out as I have not been able to find any threads etc. of the same issue or what could be causing the Templates to be missing.
Asp.net 5 templates no longer exist - they are renamed to Asp.net Core: ASP.NET 5 is dead - Introducing ASP.NET Core 1.0 and .NET Core 1.0
So, when creating your project, instead of picking "ASP.NET Web Application" as it is in the video - you would select "ASP.NET Core Web Application" and then on the next page those 3 templates (Empty, Web API, Web Application) are the same as the video's asp.net 5 preview templates
VS 2015 Preview is going under ASP.net Core web application. If you cant see that one under templates you may go to this site and download .NET Core 1.0 for Visual Studio then install.
I have concluded, by following another stackoverflow question on How to check the ASP.NET version loaded on a system as I noticed that the templates were categorized in the ASP.NET versions (4.6.1 & 5) in the tutorials but mine were not.
So I then checked and my files in C:\Windows\Microsoft.NET\Framework are as follows
Revealing no v5.0 directory. I rectified this and now all of the templates are available
AMENDMENT:
To fix it:
I went to http://www.asp.net/downloads and downloaded ASP.NET MVC 5
I ensured I had Developer Tools checked in the download process.
This issue was now resolved - As I then had the MVC 5 template files. Because I downloaded them, so I had them... and no longer didn't have them.
ALTERNATE FIX:
Furthermore From my research, some people had not included Developer Tools. To resolve: go to old mate 'Add or remove programs' and find your Microsoft Visual Studio 20xx install, 'change' and install Microsoft Web Developer Tools
I have had the same problem but it is actually even better because "The new dialog enables you to change the default authentication options for many of the templates. For example, when you create an ASP.NET Web Forms project you can select any of the following options:
No Authentication
Individual User Accounts (ASP.NET membership or social provider log in)
Organizational Accounts (Active Directory in an internet application)"
check out this >> http://www.asp.net/mvc/mvc5
I recently had this problem and finally fixed it by uninstalling (control panel -> uninstall a program) Microsoft.NET Core and Microsoft Visual C++ redistrutable 2015 (x64 & x86) and then re-installing the asp.net core rc2 (https://www.microsoft.com/net/core#windows or possibly check Tools->Extensions and Updates->Updates inside of Visual Studio).
I uninstalled the Visual C++ redistrutables because I kept getting an error when trying to re-install asp.net core rc2. It kept telling me that it already existed even after I had just uninstalled it and the update was showing in the "Extensions and Updates" section of Visual Studio after trying (but failing) to install the asp.net core rc2 update.

Error while Publishing Web App in Visual Studio Professional 2013

I am trying to publish my Web App in Visual Studio Professional 2013 but getting the following error
I got the same question asked over here but no useful answer.
Can anyone please help
You probably will be using older version, that was having an issue. refer detail [here]
Install the newer web deployment tool, should work.
which .net version are you using.
check web deploy version. if vs has 2 web deploy version, the vs get confuse to take which version. If it has 2 version, just uninstall vs and then instal it along with web deploy. if the Vs has one 1 web deploy version, you uninstall and install the web deploy. It will rectify your problem i hope.
You can refer This link
Check if version 9.0.0.0 of the assembly is installed in GAC. (from the VS2013 developer command prompt) gacutil /l Microsoft.Web.Deployment. Issues like this have occurred in the past where things worked, then after installing an update (or trying to install one) then reports of missing dlls, like nuget, occur.
The usual course of action is to repair the Visual Studio installation.
There is a problem with your publish profile. Delete the pubxml file located bellow Properties folder in your project and then create a new publish profile.
I got the same problem when older project runs into the new .NET Framework, for that you have to do the following.
Right Click on your project name->select Property Pages -> Click Build from the menu-> then select Target Framework .Net framework 4.5 or your current using framework..
"Could not load file or assembly" means the required file (of that mentioned version) is not available in the assembly (nor in the registry). All you gotta to do is to ensure this same is installed properly that would allow you to proceed further. The other things to ensure is the latest framework installed on your system.
Think you have some errors happen when to install or update Visual 2013, so you can reinstall again and this error will be fixed.

VS 2015 Preview missing "ASP.NET 5 Web Application" project type?

In Visual Studio 2015 Preview, I see the following vNext templates in the "New Project" window:
I am under the impression that I should also see an entry for "ASP.NET 5 Empty Web Application" or something similar, but I see no such thing. Those two entries are the only "vNext" designated entries that I have installed.
Is there an additional binary I need to install in order to enable this type of project to appear? Or do I need to examine my VS 2015 Preview installation?
Note: I do have an entry for "ASP.NET Web Application", which takes me through the setup with the unified architecture but does not appear to include a project.json file or things that I'm associating with ASP.NET 5 development.
Update: Per this article regarding 2013 I also tried to run devenv.exe /installvstemplates, but that didn't work either. To clarify, I don't see any new web template, which the screenshot below illustrates as well:
I was having the same problem, except that unlike the accepted answer suggests, the ASP.NET Web Application was not on the list of templates at all.
I was able to get it to show up after following the instructions from this article.
From Visual Studio 2015: Tools -> Extensions and Updates
Select Online then click Visual Studio Gallery
Search for ASP.NET Project Templates and download the first result.
Go through installation process, relaunch Visual Studio, and Web Application should now be an option!
Alternately, you can download the templates directly here.
I believe this download actually is meant to install some other templates that I wasn't interested in, but installing them must have also installed the base template in the process. Either way, it worked for me.
Visual Studio Ultimate 2015 Preview contains everything you need to create an ASP.NET 5 (vNext) web application. One additional generic option should be available that's not depicted in your question:
It's not entirely clear at this point, but choosing the generic web application option will present a few ASP.NET 5 (vNext) options that you're seeking in the following dialog:
In Visual Studio 2015 Preview Microsoft has renamed ASP.NET vNext to ASP.NET 5
If you open http://www.asp.net/vnext, in every article vNext is metioned as ASP.NET 5
In following Sam's Suggestion, I noticed that there were Updates Pending. One of these updates included the missing ASP.NET 5 templates.
Tools > Extensions & Updates > Updates > Visual Studio Gallery
Once updated & Installed, the Web Application was then available as described in the tutorial.
The new update released this week has renamed ASP.NET 5 into a new framework which they are now calling ASP.NET Core. More information can be found in this article https://blogs.msdn.microsoft.com/webdev/2016/05/16/announcing-asp-net-core-rc2/
VS 2015 Preview is going under ASP.net Core web application. If you cant see that one under templates you may go to this site and download .NET Core 1.0 for Visual Studio then install.
In my case the problem was in the Microsoft .NET Core 1.0.1 VS 2015 Tooling Preview 2 corrupted installation.
It was performed:
install the ASP.NET Project Templates following answer from this post - NO RESULT
reinstalling Microsoft Web Developer Tools from the identical SO post - NO RESULT
fresh install the IDE using TotalUninstaller tool - NO RESULT
repair the Microsoft .NET Core 1.0.1 (see the sketch below) - SOLVED
Only repair .NET Core 1.0.1 finally solved the problem!
For that you have to download the .net core cross platform development, below steps you will refer
open VISUAL Studio installer
click the option in the list click modify
below image you can refer it
once complete installation,now you have the option for asp.net core web application

Unlocking asp.net mvc templates in VS 2008

Ok so i downloaded the asp.net mvc through the web platform installer. Rebooted the machine and fired up VS 2008 express. Lo and behold there were no website/project templates that could setup an mvc project. I did a little research and found out they would not show up in the express version. No matter - i got team suite edition too so i installed that and hoped for the templates to show up. They did not, so i reinstalled the mvc and they still won't show up.
I hate this part of developing - i just want to dognammed tools to work - what am i doing wrong - why won't the templates show up? I can't seem to uninstall mvc now and reinstalling just tells me that it's already installed...
If you have asp.net mvc installed and don't see templates in visual studio, you should try to run administrative command prompt and run devenv - setup so that templates can be registered.
c:\Windows\system32>cd "C:\Program Files\Microsoft Visual Studio 9.0\Common7\IDE"
C:\Program Files\Microsoft Visual Studio 9.0\Common7\IDE>devenv - setup
this should help
If you installed Team Suite after mvc, it won't see the templates. Try reinstalling MVC, it's light and shouldn't take long.
Are you sure? I thought that but it HAS to be .NET 3.5 AND it's a Web Application from the New Project dialog and not through the New Website dialog. Annoying but alas!
