  • Article

We have a lot of reports that Visual Studio Professional Subscribers are not seeing any downloads besides the MSDN Library - we are looking at this right now. Sorry for the hassle.

    Another comment: What happened to the notes that were often added in the file summary. For example, I can't spot any of the comments that were added to  old MSDN library versions as to which version of Visual Studio they were designed for.   Has this information been removed (and if so, where are the notes about things like DVD/CD volume labels and the "overwrite disc 1 last" that used to be shown)?

    My subscription is through the partner program and I also cannot see all my downloads, although all me keys still seem to be there.

    The problem where Visual Studio Pro with Pro Subscribers were not seeing the correct downloads has been fixed. We did identify another related where a VL Subscriber with multiple Subscriber Download benefits cannot access all of their downloads. This bug will be fixed in the near future. Thanks again for your feedback on the UI and other changes. I'll respond back on several of those issues on the other thread.

    I don't like the new UI, either.  It is way too slow to find anything.  And where is the list of the newest download?  I can't find it anywhere and I don't want to poke around the new Silverlight UI -- that would be very annoying! I don't like the layout of the product keys list, either.  What was wrong with the simple, concise list you had before?

    I must be missing something obvious, in the new interface how do I get a list by order of release so I can get the newest releases without sorting through everything.

    At almost each page, when I click on a download, the system says there is an Error! How can I access my downloads and product keys? That's not serious! Where is the list of last downloads? Please remove immediately this age-of-stone interface and return to the old one, with just a left column larger.

    I still like the old interface. On a wide screen, it occupies the whole window. I could expand more than one item on the navigation tree view at the same time. The details on the navigation tree view will not collapse by itself if my cursor leaves the view. The new interface, in contrast, is really horrible. It is difficult for me to see what downloads are available. When the download list is long, I have to wait for the items at the bottom to scroll into the view. There is not a What's New for me to know what new downloads have just been added. Could we switch back to the old interface?
