I saw the new comparison tool in Visual Studio 2012 for comparing two files or two versions of a file. I like it. But when I tried to find it I couldn't it, because I don't use TFS.
Is there a way how I can just compare two files with the built-in feature in Visual Studio (but without TFS)?

locate the required file in the Solution Explorer window, right-click it and choose Compare Selected File in the context menu; open the required file in Visual Studio, right-click the required document name in the document tab well and in the document's context menu select Compare Current File.
Open VS Code with the files you are going to compare. Right-Click one file you want to compare => Select for Compare.
From the Micro Focus Data File Tools window, click Tools > Compare Files. The File Compare dialog box appears. Select the two data files to compare: In the File 1 section, click and select the required file.
You can invoke devenv.exe /diff list1.txt list2.txt from the Visual Studio Developer Command Prompt or, if a Visual Studio instance is already running, you can type Tools.DiffFiles in the Command window, with a handy file name completion:
