Can't find MVC3 Template

Question

I have Visual Studio 2010, and I can't seem to find the MVC3 template when creating a new project. I only have the MVC2 template, but most of these tutorials on the actual ASP.net website have MVC3 already installed. Is there somewhere I need to go to add the template to my Visual Studio templates?

Answer 1

VS2010 shipped with MVC2. You need to install MVC3 before you get the templates. You can find the installer at http://www.asp.net/mvc/mvc3.

Answer 2

Change the framework version to dot Net 4.0 and the templates should appear.
