In the past, I've noticed subtle differences in the behavior of packages when you don't explicitly run the installer as an administrator and when you do. Unless you have a strong objection, I'd like to leave those lines in there until we're sure. DX SDK 2010 is not used if you are using the windows 8 SDK or higher (DX > SDK is integrated into windows SDK 8.0 and higher); both VS community and > VS 2013 ultimate install Windows SDK 8.1 and therefore will use the DX there > Interesting - I do see DX headers and libs in the "C:\Program Files (x86)\Windows Kits\8.1" folders. Do you know for sure that builds complete without the separate SDK? If so, we should remove the reference to it - it's huge. > The linked update for Visual studio 2013 points to update 5 CTP; this is a > preview and should not be used for production environment. It should point > to: > http://www.visualstudio.com/en-us/downloads/download-visual-studio-vs#DownloadFamilies_5 > which will list the latest stable update. > Good point - noted. and I will change the wiki. A note to run Microsoft Update with the option of installing updates for > other Microsoft products should be included in the last step of installing > VS 2013.

I'd like to document how to enable that - all I see in Windows Update -> Settings are options to change how and when they're updated.
