  <p>But there's no option for VS 2012 in the version picker combo on that MSDN page. Empirically, I cannot open these files in 2012 Ultimate, the IDE tells me:</p>
  
  <blockquote>
    <p>The is no editor available for 'C:\Windows\MEMORY.DMP'. Make sure the application for the file type (.DMP) is installed.</p>
  </blockquote>
  
  <p>Is the fact that I can't open it and that there's no documented support a coincidence?</p>
