I would like to create some test web applications with Visual Studio 2010 Express.

I installed Microsoft Visual C# 2010 Express, but I can't choose the "ASP.NET MVC 2" type of project web application.

What should I install if I want to create a web ASP.NET MVC 2 application?

I am using Visual Web Developer 2010 Express and I see it. The following is what I do:

File > New Project

Then under the Web template you will find ASP.Net MVC 2 Web Application

You will NOT find it under File > Web Site, which I am assuming you might be looking at.

That's a separate (free) install. See here.

Install link is top-right on the page.
