Changes[edit | edit source]
Visual Studio Ultimate[edit | edit source]
Visual Studio 2010 replaces the Team System edition in Visual Studio 2008 with the Ultimate edition. This was the most premium edition of Visual Studio, until it was replaced by the Enterprise edition in Visual Studio 2015.
Visual Studio Shell[edit | edit source]
The Visual Studio Shell has been rewritten to use WPF and make the interface more modern and consistent.
IntelliTrace[edit | edit source]
The Ultimate edition introduces IntelliTrace, an event-driven debugging system[1]. It lets you record events and go to past ones, to fix program bugs more easily and in less time.
Help Viewer[edit | edit source]
The MSDN Library has been replaced by the Help Viewer, a more modular help book management system. With it, you can manage the installed books, which provide help topics for various products.
