I installed Visual Studio 2012 Express followed by the TypeScript plugin.
I launched VS and noticed that my .ts files are not getting any syntax highlighting.
I did not have any of the project templates relating to TypeScript, nor the Tools->Options->Text Editors->TypeScript settings.
I even tried to uninstall/re-install everything. Nothing worked.
I was desperately looking for a solution and it seems like none exist, so I decided to post the solution that worked for me.
It could be a complete fluke, but I thought I’d share it anyway, in case it can help someone else.
I have Windows 8 installed, but I don’t think that’s a factor since my other PC works just fine with Windows 8 + VS 2012 Express + TS plugin.
I went into
C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft SDKs\TypeScript\0.8.0.0and with VS closed, I ran theTypeScriptLanguageService.vsixfile.HTH
