VS2012 Express?

I’m attempting to make a Windows 8 version of an old game. I’m able to build a VS2012 solution, but see this when I open it :

C:\Program Files (x86)\MSBuild\Microsoft.Cpp\v4.0\V110\Microsoft.CppCommon.targets(1810,3): The imported project “C:\Program Files (x86)\MSBuild\Microsoft\WindowsXaml\v11.0\Microsoft.Windows.UI.Xaml.Cpp.targets” was not found. Confirm that the path in the declaration is correct, and that the file exists on disk.

The file/project/target does not exist, just like the error says.

I’m using Visual Studio Express 2012 for Windows Desktop. Do I need the pro version to be able to build for Windows 8?

Thanks.

I think you need to install Visual Studio Express 2012 for Windows 8

Of course I do…thanks…so many version of VS to choose from. :!:
