Visual Studio Express 2012 RC doesn't yet support desktop development. It will only be available eventually in the upcoming stable release of VS2012, as a separate Express SKU called Visual Studio Express 2012 for Windows Desktop.

If you must start desktop development on Windows 8 RP now, you can install Visual C# 2010 Express, which should work the same way on Windows 8 as it always does.

From what I understand about Visual C# Express 2012 you can only create Metro applications with the express version. If you want to create traditional windowed applications you have to buy the professional edition. However I think Windows 8 is compatible with older versions of VS Express.
