RPA pega robot studio setup

Hi Team,

I have a problem while installing pega robot studio setup it is asking the pre requisites installation of microsoft visual studio 2015 update 3, but it is not available in Marketplace [which is removed ] so please help me in installing the microsoft visual studio 2015 update 3 or tell me other workaround for this issue.

@prasadreddyM16651450 I suggest opening a ticket with support as they can provide you a link to download the package containing VS2015 Update 3. It is far too large to post here.

@prasadreddyM16651450 You can avoid having to install Microsoft Visual Studio (MS VS) altogether by instead installing Pega Robot Studio 22.1. Version 22.1 was completely redesigned and features a streamlined interface that does not require MS VS. You will also get more advanced features and avoid installing a product that is nearing its end of life. For more information on downloading and installing version 22.1, see Downloading Pega Robotic Automation.

@ThomasSasnett I raised a ticket to pega support systems but they only told to visit my support portal and post a question here anyway thanks for your reply.

@MichaelNorton Excellent point. If you do still need 19.1 to support legacy projects, then you will need to get that from support, however 22.1 has been out for nearly two years and is a far better development experience than 19.1 was.

@MichaelNorton I want 19.1 version for my personal training but at last i have downloaded 22 version only, thanks for your reply.

@prasadreddyM16651450 If you are doing training, then I would suggest using 22.1 as 19.1 will be unsupported some period of time after the next major version is released. The development experience is different enough, that I would suggest learning in 22.1 going forward. If you did encounter a need for 19.1 in the near future, you will likely be able to get through it if needed, especially since it likely won’t be around for too much longer.

@ThomasSasnett okay i will try 22 version once again thanks for your suggestion
