As the other user commented, legal/licensing requirement could mandate this.
Additionally over the course of time a few of the components/libraries that are used by the program might have gone through deprecation. Hence the software could do a Update Check but blocking it from using is simply unacceptable unless the first clause on licensing applies.

( I hope my description is clear enough)
We allow installing major versions of our application in parallel (for example, 1.0, 2.0, 3.0)
For minor versions releases, we patch the current version (for example 1.1, 2.4, 3.2 ... ) and we rename the shortcuts (start menu and desktop) to reflect the minor version (for example, app 1.1, app 2.4 )
Question:
Is there a Microsoft UX guideline saying what behavior Windows application should do in that case ?
For example, the Visual Studio shortcut will only display the major version , but not the update number , for example "Visual Studio 2015" and not "Visual Studio 2015 Update 3"
Thanks.
I'd rather be phishing!

I've never come across a standard convention for this (and I've been around the block a few times  ). Couldn't find one either.
I have seen the convention you have noted "Visual Studio 2015" etc from other major suppliers. By the same token NUnit includes the minor e.g. 2.6.3 as does Windows Phone SDK e.g. 8.1
I'm personally not a fan of changing the shortcut just because there has been an update but I guess you have no choice if you are allowing parallel installs. However that leads me to yet another style (I won't call it a convention any more) that is common and that is to have the Start Menu folder name static with the (major) versions listed below.
Probably not a lot of help, but no-one else responded

We are currently using TFS 2015 for our CI builds. We use the Microsoft unit testing framework that ships with VS 2015 to create our unit tests and we run these as part of our TFS 2015 build process.
We'd like to extend our unit testing to include code coverage. We can't use the VS 2015 / TFS 2015 code coverage tools as these require an enterprise licence and we only have a professional licence (although we would consider upgrading if necessary).
We're looking for a code coverage tool that we can hook into our TFS 2015 build and that produces meaningful output (e.g. coverage reports). If possible it would be good if the same tool integrated into the VS 2015 IDE to give real-time coverage.
All recommendations and suggestions welcome.

You can use the OpenCover.UI extension for code coverage check inside Visual Studio. https://visualstudiogallery.msdn.microsoft.com/6950a046-8919-4935-8542-c6f37956f688 . It supports MSTest, nUnit and xUnit.

Since posting my question I've decided to use dotCover from JetBrains as it has a command-line interface that we can use for automating code coverage from within our build process.

Hey this a general question for anyone who is an expert on voip. Want to design a program like viber, but before working with any programmers I wanted to know what initial steps and best languages to use. And if there are any shortcuts to creating it.</

With what? You have not given us any idea what you have done up to now, or where you are stuck, or indeed, what programming language you are working in. I would suggest you post a properly detailed question in http://www.codeproject.com/Questions/ask.aspx[^] or the appropriate programming forum.

Please elaborate. What do you mean by "dasgvd"?

Apart from what Richard said, the question is very much unclear even in Android forums you won't get any help. Why do you want to add an integer value in a array for string, and then what do you want to compare?
Elaborate the question a little more, show a code sample too.

A vendor has asked me to write a white paper about the barriers that developers encounter in doing code reviews – particularly in regard to getting their managers to care about doing them, or how to sell the boss on adding it to the development process. (Although it’s sponsored, this is written for techies, not a commercial for the vendor… whom I won’t even mention here.)
That is: I plan to write a genuinely-useful document that you want to read all the way through. It might be titled, "7 ways to sell the boss on doing code reviews," or something akin to that.
So here’s my two questions:
• What one thing, ONE THING, do you wish the boss (or powers that be) understood about code review?
• Why did you choose THAT as the one thing to wish for?
Nobody is being quoted here. The closest I might get is to refer to someone indirectly to give the information credibility, something like, “Kim, a programmer at a Midwest insurance company, told me about about the time when….” So you can speak openly (and privately if you’re more comfortable). Though I suspect that this might spark a conversation that’d benefit everybody, so don’t be shy.
It’d help me if you included a LITTLE bit of background for yourself, so I could include that “programmer at an insurance company” attribution, should it back up the text.
Also let me know about your experience with code review. Is it something you use now, but want to improve? Something you’d like to include in your dev process? What difference would it make to get more support from Management for doing code reviews?
Incidentally, if you hate code reviews or just aren’t interested… thanks, but that doesn’t help me write this piece, which does start with the premise that code reviews are valuable. So it’s groovy with me if you don’t find them useful, but I’ll be ignoring that input for the purposes of this white paper.

I find that code reviews are a vital part of the SDLC. Having another developer review your code is incredibly useful. Developers are human beings, and as such, we can make mistakes or require room for improvement in the work we perform. How many times have you looked at some code and thought "Why did they implement it that way when this way is more more efficient / elegant / conforming to coding stadards" (select as appropriate).
Here's a useful article on what to look for in a code review[^]
If you are introducing code reviews, then you need to ensure that includes everyone - yes even the senior developers who perform code reviews need to have their code reviewed too.
Code reviews increase code quality and ensure coding standards are maintained to name just a few of their benefits.
My biggest question however is why are you having to justify their use in the first place? Anyone who has worked as a software developer in a professional capacity will understand and appreciate their benefits without requiring any persuasion.
