Can I make a windows form application in Microsoft Visual Studio Express 2013 Windows 8?

Seems likely that I am not able to create a windows form application using the Microsoft Visual Studio Express 2013 under Windows 8. The default templaters are only for creating apps rather than traditional normal windowed applications.

Is there any way I could find the template or find a solution?

Thanks.

Actually yes, you can do that manually, by adding the references to the project (System.Windows.Forms) and changing the output type in the properties of the project, and adding classes - you have to manually do the whole thing..
