title: C++ Syntax Highlighting in Visual Studio
body: <p>My copy of Visual Studio 2013 Professional has incorrect syntax highlighting for C++. As visible in the screenshot below, comments starting with <code>//</code> are not highlighted, but strings are highlighted as comments.</p>
  
  <p>This is not visible in the image, but comments delimited by <code>/*</code> and <code>*/</code> are highlighted correctly.</p>

  <p>How can I fix this?</p>
  
  <p>Not sure if it is related, but I am running Server 2012 R2 x64.</p>
