Can I use Visual C++ 2010 Express compiler for commercial use? As far as I know, it was always permitted prior to 2010 version, but now when I start IDE, it writes "For Evaluation Purposes Only". I can't find the full license file anywhere (not in installed files, not in Google), so I'm in doubt, should I use it, or should I downgrade to MSVC++2008 version.

Microsoft Visual Studio Express is a set of integrated development environments (IDEs) that Microsoft developed and released free of charge. They are function-limited version of the non-free Visual Studio and require mandatory registration.
This software is a free IDE (Integrated Development Environment) specifically created for programming students. Microsoft has released later versions of Visual Studio such as Visual Studio 2015. For the best course experience, please only use the 2010 Express version as described below.
Visual Studio Express products are available at no charge and may be used for commercial, production usage subject to the license terms provided with each product.
I think you just need to register it. In the help menu click on register product. It will bring you on a web page where you can log in with a passport account and eventually you'll get a product key to enter into the application.
And yes, commercial use of the Visual Studio Express applications is allowed.
