Unable to see new features after installing ASP.NET and Web Tools 2012.2

After installing ASP.NET and Web Tools 2012.2 I am unable to see any new features (e.g. new MVC4 SPA templates).

Initially, I installed via Web Platform Installer and after it didn't work, I uninstalled everything. I then tried installing 2 MSI individual packages mentioned in Release Notes > Installation Notes. After successful installation I am still unable to see any new features.

My platform is :

Microsoft Visual Studio Ultimate 2012
Version 11.0.60115.01 Update 2 CTP
Microsoft .NET Framework
Version 4.5.50709
Any ideas?

Clarification

I am expecting new templates to show under

New Project -> Visual C# -> Web -> ASP.NET MVC 4 Web Application (click ok) -> (shows only original 8 templates)
Thanks

Are you first selecting "MVC 4 Internet Project" and then clicking "next"? – bUKaneer Feb 25 at 14:05
There is no "MVC 4 Internet Project" (see clarification). Do you mean "ASP.NET MVC 4 Web Application" (project) -> "Internet Application" (template) ? If so there is no "Next", only "Ok" but even so, there should be new templates at that level... – zam6ak Feb 25 at 17:05
Which SPA templates are you talking about? There should be one "SPA" template which called Single Page Application... – nemesv Feb 25 at 17:14
look at the screenshots here (there should be 10 templates instead of 8) johnpapa.net/hottowel – zam6ak Feb 25 at 17:39

The ASP.NET and Web Tools 2012.2 Update contains only one SPA template.

If you want to have the other SPA templates (like HotTowel) you need to separately install them: Know a library other than Knockout?

From Announcing release of ASP.NET and Web Tools 2012.2 Update: here are some links for the templates:

If you don’t want to use the new Knockout template there are 4 new community-created templates. These templates were built using the improved Custom MVC Template support:

BreezeJS template that uses BreezeJS and Knockout for data binding and templating
Ember template uses the latest version of Ember and Handlebars
DurandalJS template is built using the new MVVM library DurandalJS as well as Knockout
Hot Towel uses BreezeJS, DurandalJS, Knockout, require.js and Bootstrap

how can I tell that ASP.NET and Web Tools 2012.2 Update was installed? Should there be any version info in About or not? – zam6ak Feb 25 at 18:01
In windows > Control Panel\Programs\Programs and Features and look for the Microsoft Web Developer Tools 2012.2 - Visual Studio 2012 – nemesv Feb 25 at 18:03
