How do I extract an interface with Visual Studio 2013 (Express)

Question

I have installed Microsoft Visual Studio Express 2013 for Web.

I am trying to extract the interface from my class, but when I right click on the class and select the "Refactor" menu, I don't have an "Extract Interface" option.

Showing the Refactor Menu without the Extract Interface option

Have I set up something wrong? How do I get the Extract Interface option. I've gone through all the menu options that I can find, but can't find anything.

You don't. I have seen this in full version and it is hard to miss, but I checked the Express edition and it isn't there. I wasn't able to find any official Microsoft documentation stating this for the 2013 edition, but previous versions of Visual Studio Express have only included limited refactoring support. The differences in the 2012 editions are cataloged here.
