In this post I'll try to create a comprehensive list of all the Visual Studio build numbers/version IDs and default paths, including any available/released/known RTMs and Update. If you see something that's missing, please leave a comment and I'll be happy to update it.
EDIT: if you need a direct download link to one of the many Visual Studio Offline Installers & ISO files (from VS6 to VS2017), click here.
