Where can I download VS2010 professional? (or can't I?)

This seems like a weird problem. I've just upgraded to a brand new PC and I can't for the life of me work out where I can get visual studios 2010 from. I have my product key ready to go.

Has MS discontinued this product? If so is there a work around? Is my only option to (dare I say it) upgrade.

You can get old versions of VS here: https://my.visualstudio.com/Downloads

As long as you have a license for it, you should be able to download it. Especially old versions are only downloadable as ISO files, so you may want a tool to mount them, like this: https://wincdemu.sysprogs.org/

According to Microsoft there's no more Visual Studio 2010 for download from their (official) site.

Personally I really recommend you go straight to 2017 Community Edition - it has everything the 2010 Professional has and more.

The "more" includes built-in support for GitHub, "almost" full support for C++11 and some support for C++14, Windows 10 SDK, parallel builds, built-in support for Linux remote build/debugging... The list goes on and on.
