title: Can I upgrade from Visual Studio 2012 (11) RC to Final / RTM?
body: <p>I have noticed that there are a lot of improvements in Visual Studio 11 when it comes to the designer, and I really want to switch to 2012 as fast as possible.</p>
  
  <p>The question is - if I download the Release Candidate now, can I then just "reinstall" or upgrade to the RTM/final version when that is out, or do I need to uninstall and mess about?</p>
  
  <p><a href="https://stackoverflow.com/questions/2626077/upgrading-visual-studio-2010-rc-to-rtm-retail-final">This</a> question, regarding VS 2010, and its answer says that you need to uninstall everything, but when it comes to 2012 I read that upgrading from BETA to RC is just an install, no need to uninstall.</p>
  
  <p>I have tried searching for an answer, but to no avail.</p>
