Buy Developer Tools Licenses at SuperKeyStore

This category contains Microsoft Visual Studio, the integrated development environment (IDE) for building desktop, web, cloud, mobile and game applications. It supports C#, C++, Visual Basic, F#, Python and JavaScript, and it is the standard tool for .NET development on Windows.

We offer the Professional and Enterprise editions of three releases, from Visual Studio 2026 Professional en Visual Studio 2026 Enterprise for Windows to Microsoft Visual Studio 2022 Professional and the older 2019 versions. You receive a product key and a link to Microsoft's official download by email, usually within minutes.

Why buy a Visual Studio license?

The paid editions of Visual Studio go beyond the free Community edition in several ways:

1. Commercial use in companies: Community has usage limits for organizations. Professional and Enterprise are intended for professional teams of any size.
2. Powerful debugging: Breakpoints, live variable inspection and diagnostic tools help you find errors quickly in large code bases.
3. IntelliSense and code assistance: Code completion, refactoring and quick fixes speed up everyday programming.
4. Enterprise testing tools: Enterprise adds features such as IntelliTrace, Live Unit Testing, code coverage and architecture validation.
5. Built-in Git and Azure integration: You can manage repositories and deploy to Azure directly from the IDE.

What are the main features of Visual Studio?

Visual Studio combines editing, building, debugging and deployment in one application:

1. Code editor with IntelliSense

The editor completes code, shows parameter information and suggests fixes as you type. Developers write correct code faster and spend less time on documentation lookups.

2. Integrated debugger

You can step through code, inspect variables, set conditional breakpoints and attach to running processes. This shortens the time needed to find complex bugs.

3. Workloads for many platforms

The installer offers workloads for .NET desktop, ASP.NET web, C++ desktop, Azure, mobile with .NET MAUI and game development. Each team installs only what it needs.

4. Testing and code quality

Unit test tools, code analysis and, in Enterprise, code coverage and Live Unit Testing check your code continuously. Teams catch errors before they reach production.

5. Collaboration features

Git integration, Live Share and pull request support let developers work together on the same code. Remote and distributed teams benefit most.

6. AI assistance

Recent releases integrate GitHub Copilot, which can suggest code and explain errors. It requires a separate GitHub Copilot plan.

Which Visual Studio edition is right for you?

Professional suits individual developers and small teams; Enterprise suits larger teams that need advanced testing and diagnostics. The release year matters if your projects or build servers depend on a specific version.

Teams should keep everyone on the same release, so that solution files, extensions and build tools behave identically. If a customer project is locked to an older toolchain, an older edition avoids conversion problems. For greenfield projects the newest release is usually the better long-term choice.

What are the system requirements for Visual Studio?

Visual Studio needs a 64-bit Windows PC with enough memory and an SSD; check each product's System Requirements tab for the release.

How do you download and activate Visual Studio?

1. Order: Select the edition and release you need and complete your purchase.
2. Open the email: The product key and download link are delivered by email, usually within minutes, or within 24 hours if a security check applies.
3. Download: Run the Visual Studio Installer from Microsoft's official website and choose the workloads you need, such as .NET desktop or C++ development.
4. Enter the key: Open Help, then Register Visual Studio, select the option to unlock with a product key and enter your key.

What happens to my Visual Studio license if I reinstall or format my computer?

Reinstalling Windows does not invalidate a Visual Studio product key. Download the installer again, select your workloads and enter the same key under Help, Register Visual Studio. Export your settings and installed workload configuration first to save time.

Can I move a Visual Studio license to a new PC or Mac?

A Visual Studio product key licenses one user, who may install it on several of their own machines. To move to a new PC, install Visual Studio there and enter the key; remove it from the old computer if it will be used by someone else. There is no Mac edition, so Mac users need Windows or Visual Studio Code.

What if my Developer Tools key does not work?

Send our support an email with your order number and a screenshot of the registration window. You will receive a replacement key or a refund according to the Terugbetalingsbeleid.

Frequently asked questions about Visual Studio

Is a Visual Studio product key a lifetime license?

A product key unlocks the edition for the release it was issued for, without a monthly fee. Major new releases are separate products.

Does Visual Studio run on a Mac?

No, the editions on this page run on Windows only. Microsoft retired Visual Studio for Mac, and Mac developers often use Visual Studio Code instead.

What is the difference between Visual Studio and Visual Studio Code?

Visual Studio is a full IDE for large .NET and C++ projects. Visual Studio Code is a free, lightweight editor that is extended with plugins.

Can I still buy Visual Studio 2019?

Yes, the 2019 editions are available for teams that must keep an older toolchain. Microsoft provides fewer updates for older releases, so choose 2026 for new projects.

Can I install several versions side by side?

Yes, different releases of Visual Studio can be installed on the same Windows PC. Each release needs its own key.

Which programming languages does Visual Studio support?

C#, Visual Basic, F#, C++, Python, JavaScript and TypeScript are supported through workloads. Other languages can be added with extensions.

Can I develop mobile apps with Visual Studio?

Yes, the .NET MAUI workload builds apps for Android, iOS, Windows and macOS from one C# code base. Building iOS apps requires access to a Mac.

Do I need Enterprise for unit testing?

No, Professional includes unit testing. Enterprise adds advanced tools such as Live Unit Testing, IntelliTrace and code coverage.

Can Visual Studio 2026 open my 2022 projects?

Yes, newer releases open solutions created in older versions. You may be asked to retarget older frameworks.
