Installing SQL Server 2012 – Error: Prior Visual Studio 2010 instances requiring update

I had this issue too, after following this guide, it was simply 1 additional patch that was required to get past the

Rule “Prior Visual Studio 2010 instances requiring update.” failed.

Was to locate this file, and patch my machine

VS10sp1-KB983509.msp

Simply do a file search on the installation media for SQL Server 2012, in my case it was in \redist\VisualStudioShell (whereas in the guide it’s listed as being in a different location).

Then hit ‘re-run’.
