I have been trying to find out whether the free Community Edition of Visual Studio 2015 will accept the Windows Installer XML (WiX) plugin. In the end I decided that the only way to find out, is to try. So I downloaded and ran the VS 2015 Community Ed installer.
I did not bother to uninstall VS2012 Pro that I have on my machine. Uninstallation of previous VS versions, is apparently not required. (Except possibly for some of the 2013 versions?)
The installation was painless and took about 15 minutes. I now have both 2012 and 2015 on my desktop. The new version even imported my personalized settings from the 2012 version. I then ran the WiX installer. (You need at least version 10 for VS 2015.) To my delight the WiX installer reported that it is updating both 2012 Pro and 2015 Community Edition.
In case you wondered, as I did, whether WiX can be installed on the Community Edition: The answer is: Yes. However, make sure you install WiX version 10 or later. Earlier versions are not compatible with VS 2015.

AFAIK the difference between Pro and Community is only in licensing ... therefore all plugins should work as expected.

Yes, you are probably right. But there were significant differences between the free Express and Pro versions of earlier VS models. The Express versions could not be integrated with WiX as I remember.

The Express version could not have *any* plugins installed, not just WiX. No ReSharper, no third-party test runners, no Unity plugin, nothing.

WiX must die, together with that ugly MSI.

Maybe not outright but he's probably got a share in it.

Considering the amount of their product I consume, I should be given a substantial share in Starbucks. But do you think they will give me a single share of stock? Naaah! Ungrateful sunshines!

I don't know why Starbucks does this, but many people have remarked that the quality of their coffee here in the USA is much better than abroad. Believe me when I tell you that in America Starbucks is one of the better brands!

But how long will that share last?

15 minutes (the average time for a breakfast)!

Before the VStudio Community edition released you had to install 3 different VStudio products to get all of the project types. It was crazy.
Finally, I installed VStudio 2013* Community which seemed to do everything but I never uninstalled all those other products. Now, I'm going through and uninstalling
Visual Studio Express 2013 For Web
Visual Studio Express 2013 for Windows Desktop
Visual Studio Express 2013 for Windows (EDIT: uninstall has been running for 20 minutes still not done)
Can't believe how slow the uninstall is.
I'm glad Microsoft finally brought these all back together again.
*I know, Community 2015 is available, but that's another crazy thing. Looks like you can't upgrade 2013, but you have to uinstall and install 2015 seperately.
