Change Visual Studio Version in run-command(Start -> Run -> devenv)

I have both VS 2008 and VS 2010 installed in my PC (Windows XP). Now I try to open IDE via Start开发者_运维技巧 -> Run -> devenv it always open VS 2008 environment. Is it possible to change this settings ?? That is I do want to open VS 2010 when I type devenv in Start -> Run

Graciously welcoming any help.

These are the steps for windows 7:

1. Press windows + r to open run window and then write "regedit" to open your PC registry.

2. Then go to HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE -> SOFTWARE -> Microsoft -> Windows -> Currentversion -> App Paths -> devenv.exe

3. Click on devenv.exe and change the value of default.

When you open default it has value like C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Visual Studio 9.0\Common7\IDE\devenv.exe

You need to change the value to your other installation, maybe C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Visual Studio 10.0\Common7\IDE\devenv.exe

After completing steps above, when you run devenv command it opens vs2010.

I would simply find some Visual studio solution file, right click, properties, change the default version from 2008 to 2010

Consider Visual studio 13 is installed at "C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Visual Studio 12.0\Common7\IDE\devenv.exe"

Now if I want to make Visual studio 13 as default rather than having Visual studio 15 as default then change the following

Press windows + r to open run window and then write "regedit" to open your PC registry.

Then go to HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE -> SOFTWARE -> Microsoft -> Windows -> Currentversion -> App Paths -> devenv.exe
