No add-in wizard or templates in VS 2012 after installing SDK

I have several useful utility add-ins that I wrote in 10.1 with VS 2010 that I need to move to 10.2.2. My IT dept installed

Arc 10.2.2,

Visual Studio 2012 Express, and

ArcGIS_Runtime_SDK_DotNet_1025.exe

I run VS and it doesn't appear the SDK has been installed because there are no add-in templates or references for add-ins. I can't get my vb.net add-ins running or start a new one.

Any help at figuring this out is greatly appreciated.

When you start a project, are you selecting the .NET 3.5 Framework? I think if it's set to 4.0 or higher, the templates won't show up.

This is a silly question, but how do you specify the version when starting a new project in VS 2012?

Also, is this why the project from VS 2010 and Arc 10.1 has all kinds of errors when I load it in VS 2012?

Thanks,

Derek

I don't have a copy of that in front of me, but in VS2013, it's at the top of the New Project dialog.

Also, you have the Runtime SDK, but do you also have the ArcObjects SDK for the Microsoft .NET Framework
