'Better together' VS + Windows is over
- VS can't run 64-bit web apps, and can't open IIS projects when not elevated.
- File links can't run an app elevated, and an EXE can't be marked to always run elevated ... so My_IIS_App.sln is always broken.
- With VS elevated you have to turn UAC off to drag-drop files from OS folders to VS IDE b/c Win8 explorer.exe cannot run elevated.
- "This app can't be activated when UAC is disabled." when clicking .PDF on #Win8 w/ UAC off. I switched PDF to open in Chrome.
- No VS IDE support for new powerfull OS shell script, Powershell 3.0. Powershell_ISE doesn't understand VS TFS.
Is seems very apparent to me that MS refused to accept that desktop Windows is now a 'truck OS', so the OOB dev experience is crap.
