I have VS 2010 as follow:
Microsoft Visual Studio 2010
Version 10.0.30319.1 RTMRel
Microsoft .NET Framework Version 4.0.30319 RTMRel
Installed Version: Ultimate
ASP.NET MVC 3 Web Application project template is not available.
I just see ASP.NET MVC 2 Web Application project template. How do I add MVC 3?
Just trying to follow the right path before I screw up my current installation.
Thanks
You need to go to http://www.asp.net/mvc/mvc3 and download the MVC3 installer. Then you will be good to go.
Download and install MVC 3 via web platform installer http://www.microsoft.com/web/gallery/install.aspx?appid=MVC3
When you create a new project, make sure you have selected .NET Framework 4 in the drop down. You should be able to see both ASP.NET MVC 2 Web Application and ASP.NET MVC 3 Web Application
If you have the Web Platform Installer, you can get it that way, and it's probably the easiest way. If you don't have the Web Platform Installer, get it here:
Web Platform Installer
None of these worked for me. If you're using VS2010 SP1
then take a look at this article.
It worked.
Extract the exe with Winrar or similar and run the MSI files manually.
Apparently the exe fails due to the newer version of NuGet.

You should be able to download and install it from the official Microsoft ASP.NET MVC site

As Troyka suggested you need "ASP.NET MVC 3 Tools for Visual Studio" but in my case installation failed and logs said I had a later version of MVC 3 installed.
So I had to
- Uninstall MVC3 from Control Panel\Programs\Programs and Features
- Install "ASP.NET MVC 3 Tools for Visual Studio 2010"
