Today we released Visual Studio “15” Preview 5. With this Preview, I want to focus mostly on performance improvements, and in the coming days we’ll have some follow-up posts about the performance gains we’ve seen. I’m also going to point out some of the productivity enhancements we’ve made.
So kick off the installer here and read the rest of the post. You can also grab the release notes here.
A big step forward in performance and memory efficiency
I’d like to start with a side-by-side video that will give you a sense of all the performance improvements in one look. This video compares starting Visual Studio and loading the solution for the entire .NET Compiler Platform “Roslyn” in 30 seconds with Visual Studio ‘15’ compared to 60 seconds with Visual Studio 2015:
The faster load time is a result of a couple of the improvements we’ve made – lightweight project load and on-demand loading of extensions. Here are some of the key performance gains in Preview 5:
- Shorter solution load time with lightweight project load: Working on solutions that contain upwards of 100 projects doesn’t mean you need to work with all the files or projects at a given time. VS “15” provides editing and debugging functionality without waiting for Visual Studio to load every project. You can try out this capability with managed projects in Preview 5 by turning on “Lightweight Solution Load” from Tools -> Options -> Projects and Solutions.
- Faster startup with on-demand loading of extensions: The idea is simple: load extensions when they’re needed, rather than when VS starts. In Preview 5 we started this effort by moving our Python and Xamarin extensions to load on demand and are working on moving all extensions we ship with Visual Studio and extensions shipped by third party extension vendors to this model. Curious about which extensions impact startup, solution load, and typing performance? You can see this information in Help -> Manage Visual Studio Performance. Do you develop an extension? We will be publishing guidance to help extension developers move to on-demand loading.
- Moving subsystems from the main VS process to separatel processes: We moved some memory-intensive tasks such as Git Source Control, and our JavaScript and TypeScript language services to separate processes. This makes it less likely for you to experience delays caused by code running in the main Visual Studio process, or Visual Studio becoming sluggish and even crashing as the main process approaches the 4GB memory limit of 32-bit processes. We will continue to move components out-of-process in coming releases.
- Faster project load, coding, and debugging for C++: We have made loading C++ projects faster. Check out this video showing the improvement. You can enable this by setting “Enable Faster Project Load” to True from Tools -> Options -> Text Editor -> C/C++ -> Experimental. We have also made improvements to our linker and PDB loading libraries to make incremental builds and launching the debugger much faster while significantly reducing memory consumption while debugging.
- Improved speed when using Git, Debugging, and editing XAML Code: We have improved the speed of source control operations by switching from libgit2 to git.exe. We have also improved debugging performance by optimizing initialization costs and other costs related to IntelliTrace and the Diagnostic Tools window, and removed several delays that occur when editing XAML files.
This is just the start and we are dedicated to making improvements like these to make Visual Studio start faster, be more responsive, and use less memory. Keep an eye out for more posts on the Visual Studio blog over the coming days where we’ll go deep into the technical details behind these improvements.
We rigorously test these changes to anticipate issues and deliver the best performance but there is no substitute for real world code. We need your help! So please install Preview 5, try it out with your large solutions, and tell us what you think by using the Report-a-problem tool within the IDE.
Improvements in productivity
Visual Studio “15” also has a lot of features aimed at keeping productivity high.
Editing Code
IntelliSense filtering is now available in C#, VB and C++. While exploring complex APIs, you can narrow to just the type you need (for example, just methods, properties, or events). In C# and Visual Basic we determine the “target type” required at a position and preselect items in the list matching that type. This speeds up your typing flow and removes the burden of having to figure out the expected type at a given location.
In C++, an experimental Predictive IntelliSense feature shows a filtered list of IntelliSense results so you don’t have to scroll through a long list. Only items of the expected type are listed based on need based probability. You can turn on this feature in Tools > Options > Text Editor > C/C++ > Experimental.
In XAML, we have added IntelliSense completion for x:Bind which provides a completion list when you attempt to bind to properties and events. Namespace completion offers to auto-complete the prefix if the reference to the namespace already exists. XAML IntelliSense has also been updated to filter out types and properties that do not match. The closest match is selected, so you only see relevant results and don’t have to scroll through a long list of types.
In JavaScript, we have completely revamped the language service that powers IntelliSense. Previously, as you typed, a JavaScript engine continuously executed your code to provide runtime-like completion lists and signature help. This was great for dynamic JavaScript code, however it often provided an inconsistent editing experience. The new language service uses static analysis powered by TypeScript to provide more detailed IntelliSense, full ES6/ES7 coverage, and a more consistent editing experience.
Quick Fixes and Refactorings
To help you maintain a readable codebase and catalyze your development workflow, we’ve added more Quick Actions and Refactorings for C# and Visual Basic. Move Type to Matching File moves a type into a new file that has the same name and Sync File and Type Name gives you the option to rename your type to match your file name (and vice versa). Lastly, Convert to Interpolated String lets you embrace C# 6.0 and VB14 goodness by transforming your `string.Format` expressions into interpolated strings.
Navigating Code
Getting around, and knowing where you are in a large codebase can be challenging; we’ve added several new navigation features to help with this. Go To: (Ctrl + , or Ctrl + T) lets you quickly find files, types, methods, and other kinds of objects in your code.
Find All References (Shift+F12) now helps you get around easily, even in complex codebases. It provides advanced grouping, filtering, sorting, searching within results, and (for some languages) colorization, so you can get a clear understanding of your references.
Debugging
In Preview 5 we have introduced and experimental feature: Run to Click. You no longer need to set a temporary breakpoint to skip ahead and stop on the line you desire. When stopped in the debugger, simply click the icon that appears next to the line of code your mouse is over. Your code will run and stop on that line the next time it is hit. You can turn on this feature in Debug > Options > Enable Run to Click.
The New Exception Helper: See what you need more quickly with the new Exception Helper. View the most useful exception information at a glance, including seeing what variable was null, in a compact non-modal dialog with instant access to inner exceptions.
Try it out
For the complete list of everything in this release, along with some known issues, look at the Visual Studio “15” Preview 5 Release Notes page.
A couple of important caveats about Preview 5. First, this is an unsupported preview so don’t install it on machines that you rely on for critical production work. Second, Preview 5 should work side by side with previous versions of Visual Studio, but you must remove any previous Visual Studio “15” Preview installations before beginning the setup process. Check out this Preview 5 FAQ for other common questions.
As always, we welcome your feedback. For problems, let us know via the Report a Problem option, either from the installer or the Visual Studio IDE itself. Track your feedback on the developer community portal. For suggestions, let us know through UserVoice.
Last but not least, check out Mitra’s post from earlier today to learn more about the upcoming developer conference Connect(); 2016.

Congrats on the release? Do you know when asp.net tooling will be included?
@Blake, I posted about this at https://github.com/aspnet/Tooling/issues/791#issuecomment-250194014 recently. I have pasted in my comment here for your convenience below.
“We are working on preview3 tooling support currently. With that said if you update the version in global.json you should get some support. Things may not work exactly right until we release our tooling update for it, but give it a go and let us know if you find anything. Closing this now.”
Where Preview 3 refers to .NET Core.
If you have any questions I think it’s best to continue at https://github.com/aspnet/Tooling/issues/791 to ensure that we have the right people looking at the feedback.
Been waiting for this, for days, constantly refreshing the blog! Hoping to see the actual release soon.
Yeah same here, looking forward to the final release.
That Intellisense filtering looks oddly familiar. 🤔
I think its **inspired by** reshaper
Do tell me that all these groupings etc can be turned completely off in Find All References? One reason I will never use a certain commercial tool is because their results view is bloated with forced grouping and VS has always been slick with no extra lines taking space.
Hi @Sami Kuhmonen
Yes, the new groupings, sorts and filters are all fully user-customizable, so if you prefer to have no grouping, you can do so easily.
Please let me know how you get on with the new Find All References.
Thanks
Mark
The new Find All References pane looks very sleek.
So much cleaner and easier to use; a great improvement! 🙂
Wow, great improvements! I care about *every* *single* *improvement*! Thank you!
(I hope that debugging async exceptions and/or exceptions from within lambdas got better as well. I’ll check it out.)
I’ve used my personal MS account when asked on first run and now I see “Your license has expired” and I’m not able to run it. Any ideas? I’ve tried to reenter credentials, tried to use my work-account with valid license for VS 2015 Enterprise, still the same. When I click “check for an updated license” I see “We could not download a license. Please check your network connection or proxy settings”
“solved” (for now) by reinstalling and not signing in
Are you using the Visual Studio Community Edition?
Martin, if you see any more issues when you sign in please let us know and we investigate. Thanks
I am also unable to run it due to “Your license has expired”. This also blocks me from reporting feedback, as I believe that can only be done from inside the IDE. I used my personal account on first run. I haven’t tried to re-install it yet and I never installed one of the earlier previews.
Also resolved this by reinstalling.
I used the original installer to remove it and in there I noticed a warning icon saying that the install was incomplete.
After the second install was finished I displayed a dialog with a button to launch the IDE. I didn’t see this on the first install (I just left it installing and when I came back I had just an empty desktop). So it’s possible the first install did not complete properly but still added the shortcuts to the start menu.
After the second install it launched and signed in automatically.
Similar issue as Martin here. I minimized the installer while it was doing its thing. Later on, I noticed that it was no longer running; it just silently exited. VS15 seemed installed, so I launched the IDE, and I was greeted by the License status: expired message. I signed in, thinking that I needed to do that in order to grab a temporary license.. but all I can do is Close.
I just relaunched the installer (without reinstalling), and I get the “Setup Incomplete” like Martin described. Hit Retry and it’s downloading a bunch of stuff, will see what happens.
Same issue here — I left it installing then saw that the installer was no longer visible. I saw shortcuts in the menu, but upon launching and signing in with my MSA, it states “license expired.” I am going to try reinstall as suggested elsewhere. I’m on w10 1607.
Same here. Solved by launching installer second time. There was some installation errors, but everything works fine for now
I get the same issue.
>IntelliSense filtering is now available in C#, VB and C++. While exploring complex APIs, you can narrow to just the type you need
Rethinking the properties of a built in .net object with 25+ properties into groups based on functional area would do much to simplify finding the right property or method to use. For example, Xaml Textbox properties/members could be subgrouped into
Size and layout (height, width, position, max height/width, min height width)
Text and Fonts (text, text alignment, text wrap)
…
This would do much to simplify finding the right property to use.
It would also greatly simplify MSDN in that size & layout could be one object instead of being repeated for each and every control….
Text and fonts could be one object instead of being repeated for each and every control having text ….
N.B., It’d also do wonders for non-UI objects having many many overlapping properties
reflect over .net objects, find ones sharing more than 5 properties/methods with the same name
Also, consider combining the many overloaded methods into one single entry in MSDN for the same operation if the methods have one or two different parameters. This was stock in other OS’s API documentation in the 1980s.
Good to finally see some real performance work done. I hope to see even more.
I don’t see any offline installers, when is it ready?
I seem to be unable to Sign-in with my work email address (my MSDN account) within Visual Studio 15 (when it requests it on first run). This also seems to affect Visual Studio 2015 Enterprise now as well on the same machine I install “15” to.
I verified that my username (email) and password work when signing into MSDN directly.
It seems if I select “Personal Email” when signing in that it seems to work – which doesn’t seem correct. This seems to be confusing, and I don’t know what the difference is in the underlying sign-in behavior.
MSDN only supports Microsoft accounts (aka personal accounts). It sounds like you might have used a work email address to sign up for MSDN but ultimately that created what’s called a Microsoft account (aka Personal account). This blog post talks about this admittedly confusing setup. If you are successfully signed in and the File -> Account Settings dialog shows that you have a valid license then I suspect this is the issue and you are signed in with the right credentials.
The good news is MSDN is in the process of fixing the limitation that it only works with Microsoft Accounts and AAD is working to limit the instances where users get into this confusing situation of work accounts used as personal accounts. Read more here: https://blogs.technet.microsoft.com/enterprisemobility/2016/09/15/cleaning-up-the-azure-ad-and-microsoft-account-overlap/.
Can you make the installation process and upgrade speed faster? It’s slooooow even on a good connection, quad core CPU and M.2 SSDs
Hi Guys,
Is it possible to tweak it to use Asp.net core on it. We were hoping it to be included.
Thanks!
Anything regarding F#?
Hey onurg,
F# 4.1 is available in the IDE with Preview 5: https://www.visualstudio.com/news/releasenotes/vs15-relnotes#fsharp
There’s more coming after this Preview – stay tuned!

See the bottom advice I posted
See the bottom I posted.
No one wants to see your bottom
Ok, finally got it.
Some old preview install components caused it.
After removal, install went fine.
Thanks for the update, Vincent! Let us know if you have any further issues and we’re happy to help.
Damn GFW, fail to download visual studio installer.I tried many times so I gave up…
aha, I download the installer with private tunnel connected!
Still no .net core in Web component?
I replied here a few days back here regarding web support. Take a look at https://github.com/aspnet/Tooling/issues/791#issuecomment-250194014
This is a very good direction. The performance (speed) of debuging, debugging an android app in Xamarin in Visual Studio is so slow.
Looks impressive!
Can you elaborate on the “Improved speed of Git source control operations by using git.exe” point? Its description refers to IntelliTrace and XAML, looks like an editing error. Does this mean VS no longer uses libgit but now uses git.exe directly?
Hi Jakub, this was an editing mistake. We’ve made debugging, git, and editing XAML all faster. To answer your question, VS now uses git.exe directly instead of libgit2.
We’ve updated the post, thanks for pointing this out!
Great performance improvments! Looking really good!
But please don’t forget the colored icons 🙂
And solve the ugly and flat Metro design. An option to a more 3D Aero style or like Visual Studio 2010, with more contrast beetween areas.
Do not forget F#!
Hey Ummon,
F# is definitely not forgotten here :). F# 4.1 is available in the IDE with Preview 5: https://www.visualstudio.com/news/releasenotes/vs15-relnotes#fsharp
There’s more coming after this Preview – stay tuned!
I have checked F# from the installer, but after installing, the Preview 5 version of Visual Studio cannot open F# project anymore.
Same for me
Now we just need an improved Test runner and R# will be redundant, aside from a few minor code formatting macros!
The tooling for .net core still seems really buggy, VS looks like it gets out of sync with the code and references.
Expression sfinae please
We have been making improvements, see https://blogs.msdn.microsoft.com/vcblog/2016/06/07/expression-sfinae-improvements-in-vs-2015-update-3/.
Keep an eye on our blog for C++ news, https://blogs.msdn.microsoft.com/vcblog/.
It’s great to hear that you’re working on performance issues.
We have a rather large WinForms solution that was working just fine with Visual Studio 2013, including both editing and debugging. With Visual Studio 2015 the editing experience was horrible until update 2 or one of these KB updates.
However, “Edit and Continue” still can’t be used anymore with VS2015: it takes longer to ‘continue’ than stopping, rebuilding and reproducing a debug situation! Even resetting all settings didn’t help.
So I was very motivated to install VS 15 Preview 5 on a new test installation and give it a try. Unfortunately nothing changed for “Edit and Continue”. It is still unusably slow to resume execution.
Looks like we still have to keep VS2013 around for serious debug sessions 🙁
On the other hand the new installer is great, given that our typical VS installation will now be much smaller.
Hi abbfmst,
Thanks for reporting the issue. We are sorry to hear that you are having performance issues during EnC sessions. We would like to connect with you offline to see if there is a way we can collect perf traces for EnC sessions using your solution. Please send me email at “manishj” @ microsoft.com and we can discuss this further.
Thanks
Manish
How can i install the english version of VS15 Preview on a german language OS?
Hi,
You should be able to select English from the Language Pack tab while installing VS Enterprise for the first time. Let us know if this works for you.
Thanks,
Reshmi Mangalore
Program Manager, Visual Studio
Works fine. Thank you. But while selecting the components to install this tab was out of focus.
Great work! Looking forward to it.
When can we expect the final release? This year?
Still no ISO download.
Tim Sneath asked “Would love to hear more from you or others if there are other scenarios in which you rely on an ISO image today. Thanks so much for your feedback!”
We need the ISO download, because of the Microsoft way of security. As Microsoft CEO Ballmer said “Linux is a cancer” (meaning Linux and open source). http://www.theregister.co.uk/2001/06/02/ballmer_linux_is_a_cancer
Not my opinion, but our network is secured in a way that old Microsoft recommended. No open source or ad hoc online updates. Servers are restricted to install proofed software – in old Microsoft (Ballmer) meaning = DVD, CD or single ISO Files (permission by single download).
To answer Tim Sneath question:
No ISO = no way to install the software behind the proxys
dumbass
I agree. Many shops will require a “single binary blob” to download, whether that be an ISO or VHDX.
Where did Tim Sneath ask this question:
– “Would love to hear more from you or others if there are
– other scenarios in which you rely on an ISO image today.
– Thanks so much for your feedback!”
There are too many scenarios to list, because it’s such a fundamental issue. If it isn’t important to a customer, then ok whatever. But if it is important to a customer, it is probably *really* important.
What is the “it” that I’m talking about? The ability to have utter and complete confidence that the media that you are about to install your tools from is *exactly* *identical* to that which was originally released by the vendor.
The most straightforward and resilient way to do this is to verify that the hash of the single file, that you are about to mount and perform your install from, does indeed match the hash published by Microsoft for that particular file.
Thanks for the feedback! @John Doe, the question came from the Preview 3 blog, here: https://blogs.msdn.microsoft.com/visualstudio/2016/07/07/visual-studio-15-preview-3/
We recognize that many customers want an offline installation, particularly for locked-down enterprise environments and in certain environments where Internet connectivity is limited, slow or expensive. We’re adding the capability for the installer to download and create a cache that can be distributed via a network share. This is designed to support both the scenario where you want to confirm the components you need have downloaded successfully before you begin the installation of the product, as well as the scenario where you’re creating a general-purpose cache for many others to install from.
We don’t have offline support yet (in Preview 5), but we plan to add it in a future build.
Lastly, we’d love to hear your feedback on specific features that you need or are missing in the installer. One great place to offer that feedback is on our UserVoice site, here: https://visualstudio.uservoice.com/forums/121579-visual-studio-2015/category/31045-install
Thanks again for your feedback – it’s really helpful to use. (Well, perhaps with the exception of @derpderpderp 🙂
Best wishes, Tim Sneath | Visual Studio Team
Thank you for the answer.
BTW – I, for myself, like the idea to download only the needed parts.
Nice to have this feature in the new product, even if I could not use it at work.
At home (no proxys, but slow internet) i would prefer this kind of installation. So I would like to say “thank you for the planed features of the new installer”.
Agreed!
The network connections from MY Country to Microsoft Server is not fast and stable, It takes about ONE DAY to install VS 15 preview 4, and finally it failed.
Please provide an ISO for download, so that we can download the ISO in fast external online server, and cut the ISO to small pieces then download separately by FTP, finally combine them into ISO and copy to different local PCs for installation.
Thanks!
For circumstances like this (involving a very large ISO file) I usually try to use the BITS PowerShell commandlets.
(BITS = Background Intelligent Transfer Service, which is built into Windows)
I have successfully used it to download a 50GB file, which (over the connection I was using at the time) took about a week. Yes, 7 days. BITS is quite resilient. BITS jobs survive reboots, although you’ll need to remember to restart them.
I saw in UserVoice where someone suggested offering Visual Studio as an ISO via bit torrent. Which isn’t a bad idea, but people wouldn’t suggest this if they knew about BITS. BITS is wonderful.
Thanks John for your suggestion.
The first thing is Microsoft provide ISO for download, then we can share the ISO by FTP, BITS or bit-torrent, eMule.
Will we finally get the option to use Stroustrup style in C++?
You know:
if (condition) {
//work
}
else {
}
Hi JGigov,
We do offer the ability to set the desired style for braces around functions and control blocks for C++. You can find them in Tools > Options > Text Editor > C/C++ > Formatting > New Lines. Is this what you are looking for or are you looking for something else?
Regards,
Augustin Popa | Visual C++ Team
You should offer more ways to select and customize formatting. I can’t figure out how to make VC++ to stop auto-formatting my:
void* i(); -> void * i();
Just be careful with:
void* i(), j()
In trying this new Previes, I have hit by the bug “2016-10-06T14:13:22 : Verbose : Calling SetupEngine.Installer.InstallProduct. [channelId: Microsoft.VisualStudio.Channels.Preview, productId: Microsoft.VisualStudio.Product.Enterprise, installationPath: ‘C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Visual Studio\VS15Preview’]

Is there anyone who get a similar problem?
Hi Thanh, does your home directory (i.e. %USERPROFILE%) have a space in it, or does your username have a space character in it? If so, we caught this issue just before we released Preview 5. We will publish an update to fix this issue soon, but in the meantime, the work-around would be to temporarily change your %TEMP% environment during a setup session. For example, in an elevated command prompt (and assuming C: is the system drive), you can try the following:
cd \
mkdir SetupLog
set TEMP=C:\SetupLog
set TMP=C:\SetupLog
“c:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Visual Studio\Installer\vs_installer.exe”
Please let us know if that works for you – and apologies for the error!
Best wishes, Tim Sneath | Visual Studio Team
Many thanks Tim,
What you expect is correct, my %USERPROFILE% has spaces in it (this value is “C:\Users\Ta Thanh Dinh”); and the work-around by changing %TEMP% work!!!. Just a small notifcation, changing in a command prompt does not work for me, I have changed them in the “System properties”.
Thanks again, Tim.
Installer fails with error –
Visual Studio Installer Error Index (zero based) must be greater than or equal to zero and less than the size of the argument list.
Had to uninstall update 4 manually and now cannot install update 5.
Tried to leave feedback at developer community but site wants me to open vs to use the report a problem option – duh !
Hi Peter,
try to ensure that the folder “C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Visual Studio 15.0” is completely gone after you’ve un-installed update 4. Then try it again. Did it work?
Hi Thomas
Yes the folder is gone. I will be updating Windows to build 14931 this evening and will try again afterwards.
Thanks.
On build 14931 now and installer working.
I’m not sure about the usefulness of ‘Run to Click’ as you can already pretty much have that with ‘Run to cursor’ by adding this action to debug toolbar or pressing ctrl+f10
Hi Donatas,
Yes this feature provides the same benefits as “Run to Cursor” but with the advantage that you don’t have to open a context menu, move your mouse to the toolbar, or take your hand off the mouse to use the keyboard shortcut. If you prefer to use any of those methods they are still available to you. Try out Run To Click in preview 5 and let me know if it changes your workflow, or if you still use the Run To Cursor methods.
Thanks,
Kaycee
“Run to Click” is very cool feature. Thanks for adding it!
The startup comparison video makes me excited for VS “15”. Great job!
Is this Preview 5 for VS 2015 Community Edition as well? I’ve Community Edition and when installing Preview 5 I’m getting following error:
Error : Failed to download the version requirements. [error: getaddrinfo ENOTFOUND aka.ms aka.ms:443 at Error: getaddrinfo ENOTFOUND aka.ms aka.ms:443

at ….
This is VS 15 not 2015 (Maybe Visual studio 2016 will be the final name) so it has nothing to do with VS 2015 Community Edition
Hello,
I’m having the same problem when trying to install VS 15 Preview 5.
At the moment I’m not able to solve it, I’ve tried to re-install many times, select only some components, unistall previous preview versions… with no success. My internet connection is working fine.
The message is:
Error : Failed to download the version requirements. [error: getaddrinfo ENOTFOUND aka.ms aka.ms:443 at Error: getaddrinfo ENOTFOUND aka.ms aka.ms:443

Any ideas? Thank you
FYI, they announced a couple months ago that they’re no longer using the year-name starting with VS15, just regular version numbers again. (Finally!)
Does the “Sync File and Type Name” refactoring also change the namespace of a type to match its folder name? And can it be performed in batch? This would make mass renames/moves of namespaces much easier!
Hey Ed!
Currently, “Sync File and Type Name” and “Move Type to Matching File” cannot be performed in batch. We have heard similar feedback to yours about doing these actions in bulk and I have filed the following issues on our repo:
https://github.com/dotnet/roslyn/issues/14203

When will the Interactive window get the secret [REDACTED] features you’ve been working on???
I can neither confirm nor deny the existence or non-existence of any such features.
However, were such features to exist, and were we to have published redacted documents discussing said hypothetical features, hypothetically they would be retroactively deredacted (or dedacted, if you prefer) at that time.

P.S. THE TRUTH IS OUT THERE
I see in the release notes that offline installation is not yet in the current build. I assume this means that an unattended mode for installation is also not included.
Speculation: this is either good news, or bad news.
Is it good news?
It might be that you are working hard on a totally new experience, which would be a command line based, “fire and forget” offline / unattended installation method.
(Preferably with an option to install from a gigantic ISO file, or gigantic VHDX file. This is important for people operating in environments constrained by extremely restrictive firewall rules, etc.)
Or is it bad news?
I am worried that the offline / unattended installation experience is going to be an afterthought. How can you expect to be successful with it, if you aren’t putting it through the “preview” experience? You aren’t getting any feedback on something you haven’t released.
Later: OK, I just did some spelunking, and found mentions of new command line arguments which use the nifty “–” way of flagging arguments, (instead of “/whatever”), and I see discussion of stdout and stderr in the help text for the “–quiet” argument.
This is encouraging. Are these mechanisms getting a workout “under the covers” of the current GUI setup shell experience?
This is important for businesses with “DevOps-y” operations. Tools which prevent a simple, daily, “wipe the disk and reinstall the world from scratch” are tools which won’t see much use in shops which care deeply about resilience and practice “disaster recovery” methods as a daily discipline.
I would appreciate seeing some comments about this, so that those who care about this could gauge whether or not your vision for the unattended installation experience is in alignment with the needs of the “nuke it from orbit, wipe & reinstall” crowd.
It would also be great to see any links to places at uservoice and/or github etc, where this issue might be discussed. I can no longer find the feedback on this topic that I remember replying to; I think it was on uservoice, but who knows.
Outstanding work and improvements to Visual Studio 15, much appreciated.
Any chance to get a downloadable vm that have VS 15 Preview 5 preinstalled?
This would make it much easier for developers to test and provide feedback to the teams.\
Best,
Karl
I can’t find the solution file in the git repository home pane. It was there in Preview 4. (I can open it manually by File -> Open, so it’s not critical but still annoying.)
Did you move it or am I experiencing a bug?
The Solution section was moved from Team Explorer to Solution Explorer.
So how do I open the Solution?
The Solution Explorer is still blank after I selected the repositry in Team Explorer.
I’m just installing it.
Well, there was “architecture and diagramming tools for C++” in the installer.
What’s this? I hope it were a useful code visualizer for C++.
There is perceptibly a bundle to know about this. I believe you made
various good points in features also.
i just removed preview 4 and try to install preview 5, while few error occurred, log is following, anyone could help me?

Hi @Linkey – let’s first make sure you’re completely cleaned up from Preview 4. Could you uninstall Preview 5 and then make sure you’ve gone through the uninstall steps listed in the release notes, here: https://www.visualstudio.com/en-us/news/releasenotes/vs15-relnotes#uninstallsteps
Thanks! Tim
thanks for reply
finally i solved this problem by delete %ProgramData%\Microsoft\VisualStudio\Packages\
at first, i didn’t remove p4, then update the installer. after that, the installer told me i need to uninstall p4 first, then show the install page, i click the uninstall button following p4 in the installer.
after above, the installed files under %ProgramFiles(x86)% have all gone, but the package installers under %ProgramData% not. i guess that’s because of the uninstall method of the installer have something forgot to remove.
Hi everyone. I’ve seen a couple of questions on ASP.NET support here. I posted about this at https://github.com/aspnet/Tooling/issues/791#issuecomment-250194014 recently. I have pasted in my comment here for your convenience below.
“We are working on preview3 tooling support currently. With that said if you update the version in global.json you should get some support. Things may not work exactly right until we release our tooling update for it, but give it a go and let us know if you find anything. Closing this now.”
Where Preview 3 refers to .NET Core.
If you have any questions I think it’s best to continue at https://github.com/aspnet/Tooling/issues/791 to ensure that we have the right people looking at the feedback.
After installation, I started VS15 Preview5. It shows a prompt to sign-in with a close button. As soon as, I click close button it shuts down VS. Even after giving account info, same behavior. It shows license expired
You will install Resharper and few more extensions and whole efficiency improvement will be unnoticeable.
that is the problem of Resharper and not VS. Resharper extension makes vs very slow.
The official version of the new visual studio will be realsed in 2016?
Why did I failed in uninstalling preview4 ?

So… You’ve made it load like vs2008 prior to all the WCF bloat that we’ve been force fed as an “upgrade”. Brilliant!
Nice release. I tried it as my VS 2015 was getting rather slow. The new one’s fast and the editor experience brings in a lot of the things for which I was relying on R# for. Loving Ctrl+T as the native one from VS 2015 was very slow in our solution.
However… The installation completely borked my VSTS connection. Neither VS 2015 nor VS 15 can connect to our TFS-based source control anymore. I tried reauthenticating with no luck. I opened a browser from within VS 2015, logged out of VSTS and then logged back in (a trick a coworker had to do once) but that didn’t help. I’d love to debug this more but am unsure where to start 🙁
Otherwise it’s good.
I’m sorry about the issue that you’re experiencing. What is the error that you are receiving after logging into your MSA/AAD account on the Team Services tab of the connect dialog?

Looks like a great release. Haven’t had the chance to try the preview so I’m gonna ask here: is the “Attach to Process” Dialog finally resizable in Visual Studio 15? 🙂
Hi VanKurt,
No, the Attach to Process Dialog is still not resizable in preview 5. Do you need it resizable because you are working on a small screen? Or are you wanting to make it bigger to view more processes in the list?
–Kaycee
I usually have dozens of processes in that list and need to scroll and search a lot.
Having a resizable list would be a great help. Of course a little filter box would also be great 🙂
In general I think it’s common sense for every UI designer, that a window containing a potentially long list should be resizable 😉

The related files in your User Name folder must also be deleted
As always the same problem, MSI and registry of course. I’ve tried to install VS without any workload and get log as above. Before installing preview 5, preview 4 was uninstalled. I made a few tries even with removing ProgramData\Package cache, and other VS’s folders in AppData Local and Roaming that i was able to recognize that they belong to VS. Made searching in registry and deleted by hand every entries with my unique installation path. I tried to install VS15 Prev5 on another drive with install path without white spaces, temp dir also moved to d:\temp.
No results, VS15 preview 5 still refuses to install ShellMin.MSI. It’s interesting that I still able to install Preview 4 without any problem on this location.
You told as VS15 will be isolated to allow install different versions on different location, and made no impact to the system. Sounds great but as always, MS cannot leave their outdated ancient habits with installation process, with heavy registry usage, with scattering files all over the drive and locations.
Hi Core,
Could you run the VS Log collection tool from: http://aka.ms/vscollect and shared the generated logs in your %temp% folder with us? You can submit a feedback or can reach me at selmai at Microsoft dot com.
Thanks again!
Selma
After some hours of fighting I’ve successfully installed preview 5, but in meantime I’ve cleared tmp, so have no logs except I’ve pasted above. My solution to successfully installation is still a bit ambiguous – uninstalling prev 4 and prev 5 and removing “programdata/package cache” and some VS’a folders in %appdata% did not resolve the problem.
I’ve searched entire registry to remove VS related entries. Have been looking for substrings with my unique installation path (did not resolve the problem), then for ‘package cache’ and then for ‘visualstudio’ – there were lots of leftovers (!!!!) scattered in hklm/software/classes and in hklm/…/installer. Removed most of them allowed me to install prev 5.
After this sad experience I’m sure, the weakest element in your installer is that you still use MSI packages in combination with massive registering things in registry. They make system-wide hidden mess and make whole process very fragile. In consequence this often force us to reinstall whole Windows as nobody knows which registry entries prevent MSI installer to do its hocus-pocus job.
Strange IISExpress behaviour.
My solution has an webapi project and a asp.net MVC project (both 4.5) the solution is set to start both projects when debugging. If i open the solution with vs2015 then both CTRL+F5 and F5 both start iisexpress. open a browser tab (in the existing chrome instance) and navigate to the instances. i.e localhost:55311 and localhost:55312
However if i open the solution with VS15 preview5 (running as administrator) CTRL+F5 fails with unable to start program “http://localhost:55311”. however F5 does work. Incidentally F5 opens a new chrome instance for each of the two projects (rather than 2 tabs in the existing chrome browser). and whilst loading (which takes considerably longer) some strange waiting to attach message appears in the navigation address (omnibox) and stays there for some time before changing the the respective site address i.e. http://localhost:55311 etc.
I have used VS15 preview 3 and 4 and they both seemed to mimic the VS2015 behaviour rather than this new behavour.
Is this known bug/expected behaviour?
Seems this has already been raised and a fix is awaiting release.
https://developercommunity.visualstudio.com/content/problem/955/launching-debugger-with-chrome-fails.html
Is there any documentation on how to create DebuggerLaunchers with VS15? In prep for the VS15 release I’m trying to port our existing extensions over and I’m not finding the resources to do it. First roadblock is I’m unable to find these resources: Microsoft.VisualStudio.ProjectSystem.Utilities; Microsoft.VisualStudio.ProjectSystem.Properties; I’m also Unable to set the Xaml I use a property sheet as build action: XamlPropertyRule (this existed as an option in VS2015. As of right now there is no documentation or template I can find on making a Debugger Launcher for VS15
Hi Chris,
Let me make sure I understand your question correctly – you are trying to port an existing CPS based project to VS “15”.
If yes, I would suggest starting with the Project System Extensibility Preview for VS “15”:
https://github.com/Microsoft/VSProjectSystem/blob/master/CHANGES.md
We made some breaking changes in this release to have consolidated assembly names across releases, simplified namespaces, etc. You can take a look at the Breaking changes here:
https://github.com/Microsoft/VSProjectSystem/blob/master/doc/overview/breaking_changes_visual_studio_next.md
Thanks,
Adrian
Another issue here with an “expired license”. Whenever I open up Visual Studio it brings up the “personalization account” window, shows that I am signed in (even has my picture) and that my license has expired.
My only option is to close the window, which then proceeds to close VS
Hi Matthew. From your description their are two things you can try based on some similar issues we’ve seen affecting customers. First please try signing out and then signing back in with any valid Microsoft Account or Work/School account. We’ve seen licenses left over from earlier previews not getting cleared correctly. If that doesn’t resolve the issue then try restarting VS. If you see VS’ setup appear and continue that should finish the setup process and you should be up and running. If the setup process doesn’t continue try running a repair. If that still doesn’t resolve your issue please reach out to vsidlic att microsoft dott com and we’ll work with you to get the needed logs.
Hi Anthony,
Thanks for responding. I thought I would let you know that signing out and in didn’t work (even with a different account), restarting VS didn’t work, but running Setup again resolved the problem after a repair. Rather strangely, I’ve not had any other VS 15 installed on here, only VS 2015. When I went to run the setup it said that it wanted to “Update” VS rather than repair it, but that seemed to do the trick.
Regards,
Matthew
I am stuck. I have Preview 4, downloaded and ran the Preview 5 installer which asked if I wanted to uninstall 4. I chose yes, it did the uninstall and ran for quite a while on the installer, however the install finally failed. I then tried a number of things to uninstall, and retry, but I can’t do anything. At this point I appear to be stuck with a partial install that I can’t get rid of. Is there a way to force a clean? Here is the log from an attempted uninstall:

Hi Guy – thanks for the problem report. It does seem like you might have something left behind that has gotten your machine into an inconsistent state. We’ve put together a small PowerShell script that will clean your machine up and hopefully get you into a good state, here: https://gist.github.com/timsneath/9f9e384ef7b986fbcd873e75e4cae7c4
Would you mind running this on your machine from an elevated PowerShell window, then rebooting your machine and trying again?
Thanks,
Tim Sneath | Visual Studio Team
That took care of it. Thanks!
After many times of trying to install the new preview, I at last managed to set it down in my computer. Here I share what I have done.
First you must uninstall the installed Microsoft Visual Studio Installer from the Control Panel — Programms–Uninstall Or Modify Programs
Then delete the installed files related to the preview version of VisualStudio15 in the following folders:
(1) C:\Program Files\Microsoft Visual Studio
(2) C:\ProgramData\Microsoft\VisualStudio
(3)C:\Users\[Your Login User Name]\AppData\Local\Microsoft\VisualStudio
Download and install the vs_Enterprise.exe
When complete downloading files needed, you can install them, then you see the visual studio IDE
Hello @VBLover
I gotta say, i have been struck with this issue for last one week. I tried so many multiple re-installs and still i couldnt get it installed completely.
I tried deleting the folders multiple times but i couldn’t figure the folder “C:\programdata\..” until i saw your above message.
Thanks Very Much for saving my time further from this stupid installation.
I’ve encountered two problems, both of which were non-existent in the previous releases.
#1: Git integration isn’t handling Japanese commit message correctly. I can enter but it comes out gibberish.
#2: Designer View and Intellisense in UWP aren’t recognizing external libraries. For example, when I try to use Prism, Intellisense complains that it can’t find the namespace “Prism” and Designer View only shows “Invalid Markup” error. I said Designer View and Intellisense specifically because I can built and run the project fine.
*note* I’ve already submitted feedbacks via VS for these issues.
Much needed improvements… 1 more… show me exactly where the NULL occurred… may be…
Hi Mehul,
Can you clarify for me what you mean by “exactly where the NULL occurred”? When the debugger breaks on an Exception we stop on the line of user code responsible for that exception, so that is where the NullReferenceException occurred. This new feature of the Exception Helper will try to tell you what variable or call is NULL.
Thanks,
Kaycee
// personally i’m for a stripped down install. you choose your programming language and you go from there. is it possible to install just the C# stuff and nothing from other programming languages? “since you say C# and VB, i’m assuming that they’re both installed when user choice is .NET”
Why your VS 15 always fails to install package win10sdk_10.0.14393? Anybody checks setup procedure before it published? I checked all previews (1…5) on a few different previews of Win10. ALWAYS FAILS! How I can develop if you cannot install primary library???
Hi Ivan,
Sorry to hear you’re having problems installing the Windows 10 SDK. Could you help me diagnose the issue? I’d love to help get you unblocked.
Just a couple questions to get started:
Do you already have Visual Studio 2015 Installed?
Do you have any other Windows 10 SDKs installed on the machine?
Could you please run the log collection tool from aka.ms/vscollect and send them to me at dajaco at Microsoft dot com?
Thanks for your help!

Will Visual Studio 15 run on a Windows 7 Pro machine?
Hi @T, yes. Here is the list of system requirements for Visual Studio “15”:

Can I update from Preview 5 to the final build when it is released?
Yes, we’re planning to enable upgrades to move forward (although behind the scenes we might uninstall / reinstall to ensure that we’re cleaning up any Preview components).
I’m having further installation woes. VS 2015 installs and will run, but I can’t load my existing projects because it refuses to install the “.NET desktop development” component. Here’s the error log that’s produced when I attempt to install it:

Hi guys,
Amazing work on the Visual Studio “15”!
Is it only available for Enterprise users ? I am currently running Visual Studio Professional 2015 “14.0.~”, Will there be any update/preview coming out for those of us running Professional.?
Hi Jawad, we’ll ship a broader range of SKUs as we get close to release, but the Preview 5 release is not limited to Enterprise-licensed users. Give it a go – we’d love your feedback! Tim Sneath | Visual Studio Team
I just installed Preview 5 from scratch on an Azure VM. When I loaded my Vb.Net 4.0 WinForms project from TFS and opened the code editor, I could type normal characters, but enter, cursors, delete etc would not work. Tried several times after restarting VS.
Creating a new blank vb project worked fine.
Oh my lord. I am tired to get this working. Could someone please help? I tried deleting the folders which VBLover suggested but no luck. It has corrupted my existing working VS Preview.

Hi @Sherry, we’re here to help! Thanks so much for reporting this. Could you do me a big favor and send a “Report a Problem” from the little feedback icon at the top right-hand corner of the setup application? That will enable us to capture your error in a little more detail, and we can reach out to you directly to get you up and running quickly.
Best wishes, Tim Sneath | Visual Studio Team
Hi Tim,
Thanks. Yes already did that. I could not get any response so thought of posting it on this blog post.
Sorry for being impatient, but preview 5 looks very promising and fast to use. And I have been using it in production for quite sometime for WPF development. And now since it stopped working, I had to switch back VS 2015 which is slow 🙁
Sherry
Hi,
I get the message “This extension is not compatible with Visual Studio 15 and will not be supported in RC”.
Do you have any guide for upgrading extensions?
Hi Mikhail, we’re making some changes to the extensibility format to support the new lightweight installer. The work is in progress, but unfortunately we just don’t quite have everything in place yet. So for the time being, we’re putting up this message just as a warning that “change is coming”, and we’ll share more about those changes by RC. Thanks for your patience in the meantime!
Tim Sneath | Visual Studio Team
Thanks for reply, Tim!
I tried to upgrade my VSIX project manually using an info from here: https://aka.ms/vs15preview5extensionsdk
Unfortunately, I can not open the project, it’s saying:
These Projects are not Supported
The following projects are not supported by either this edition of Visual Studio or the version of Windows installed in this computer. There may be steps you can take to open these projects, such as installing a different edition of Visual Studio or upgrading to the latest version of Windows. Please see the latest compatibility information for Visual Studio for suggestion about how to open these projects.
The project is VS 2010 extensibility project which is opened OK with any version of VS from 2010 to 2015.
The “Connect to Team Project” UI in “15” has taken a pretty significant step backwards in usability.
1) It is defaulting to “Team Services” by default, which is kind of gross. This UI isn’t the place where Microsoft should be constantly trying to push cloud services on its developers. Stop it. We’re already paying thousands of dollars each year to use on-premises software. At minimum, it should be defaulting to whatever I looked at last time.
2) The “Select Team Foundation Server” drop-down is starting empty, every time I load this page. I suspect most people have exactly one TFS server. The UI should default to that server. You’re making me work too hard for this.
3) If I already have a repository mapped to a local path, this UI should not be proposing a new path. It’s confusing, and it’s hard to be sure of what’s going to happen when I click “Connect”. Show the existing path if it exists. Or, better still, don’t show the text box for selecting a path unless you need to get a path from the user.
4) Say “Clone with Submodules”, not “Clone w/ submodules”. The latter is confusing to many people for whom English isn’t their first language.
5) And a carry-over complaint from VS 2015…. why does the “Manage Connections” link in Team Explorer contain exactly one item? Again, you’re making me work too hard for this.
Thanks for the feedback. We’re making a number of changes to this experience for Visual Studio “15” RC and RTW.
1. We have an updated design that makes the experience simpler so you can start with TFS or VSTS on the first screen. That said, many of our customers are moving very quickly from on-prem to the cloud.
2. We’ll remember the server.
3. We have a few changes to address this.
4. This will be updated to “Clone with submodules”
5. This list is extensiblity and some 3rd party extensions, like GitHub, use it. We could make it smarter to just launch if there’s only one, but I want to fix the other issues you brought up first.
One feature of the installer that would be great would be “build tools only” for installing on a build server like TeamCity. Currently it’s almost impossible to track down all the .NET versions, build tools and targeting packs to get a build server working so I end up just installing Visual Studio.
Are there any plans on improving the performance of the WinForms designer?
It got worse with every new release of VS.
The longer you have it open the more laggy it gets.
I’m not impressed by the VS15 so far. A clean install without any extension still causes IDE freezes/not responding messages.
The new start page is more worse compared to the old one. there is so much wasted space
https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/5749744/Bilder/Blogs/MSDN/vs15_preview5_start.png
and the news/project names are truncated. Why?
And how do I change the language of VS15 to English on German Win10 after it was already installed?
also for “desktop development” role the setup installs azure bloat that I don’t care. remove this dependency.
I need chage pt-br to English too. I believe not possible.
Thanks for the feedback, Andre. We’ve made some changes to the Start Page to not waste the valuable space. Watch for it in the next prerelease.
What about the performance of the (Anti-)Performance tools? Has this issue bin fixed?

Also, while the improvements to “Find references” window are nice, IMO it would be more important to allow to display multiple search results simultaneously. E. g. when I search references to method A and I see that it’s called in method B, I’d like be able to find references to method B without loosing previous search results (Resharper has this functionality).
http://stackoverflow.com/questions/14758782/keep-previous-find-all-references-results
Hi @user1jaw
Glad you like the improved Find All References.
Regarding multiple search sets, you can actually do exactly what you’re asking for in Preview 5, by pressing the padlock icon/button (tooltip “Lock Results”) in the Find All References window’s toolbar. This locks the results in that window, and the next Find All References call you make will create a new Tool Window for the results, which you can place side by side with the previous result set if you wish.
We’re improving labelling of this button in later releases.
Let me know how you get on with this capability,
Regards
Mark Wilson-Thomas
Program Manager, Visual Studio IDE Team
That’s exactly the functionality that was needed, thanks!
(Currently I have a trouble with an access to the computer with VS Preview 5 installed, but I’ll check this when possible)
Really want to use this but keep getting this when loading my solutions:
“error : Project ‘a .net 4.5 class library project name’ could not be opened because the Visual C# 15 Preview 5 compiler could not be created. ValueFactory attempted to access the Value property of this instance.
This causes the solution to fail to load and just disappears from the solution explorer! Tried everything and not matter what I can’t load the solution.
Second attempts usually work, but then if VS is restarted it forgets all solution user settings and repeats..
HELP: preview 5 installation is stock on “Microsoft.VisualCpp.Redist.14”.
Any suggest will be appreciated.
Having install problems in Windows 7 x64 fully updated. I keep getting a dialog saying:
A product matching the following parameters cannot be found:
channelId: Microsoft.VisualStudio.Channels.Preview
ProductId: Microsoft.VisualStudio.Product.Enterprise.
I have tried various suggested fixes and bypassing corporate proxy etc. Any ideas?
I have a small system drive (c:) so have been hesitating to install Visual Studio (knowing that some components get installed on this drive no matter where the installation goes).
I couldn’t find anything regarding “15” doing the same and for the features I needed it said installation would take 5.4 gb so I decided to install.
Installation seemed to go fine but my c: drive went from 18gb free to 2.8gb (or something similar). I quickly uninstalled but now only 7.11gb are free.
Why is there such a big discrepency (~11gb) between the proclaimed install size (by the installer) and the actual install?
On a regular VS install I’d probably need to use https://github.com/Microsoft/VisualStudioUninstaller to free the rest of the space up. It doesn’t seem to supprt “15”.
What am I to do to uninstall all these components (which I assume take up the 11gb) from my c: drive?
Thanks in advance.
It seems android sdk was placed on c: drive with no warning. That recovered some of the space (~5gb)
vs_installer.exe appears to fail silently on my computer. The mouse cursor changes to the “activity” icon (a blue circle) for about one second, and then nothing.
I’ve also tried running vs_installer with the flags specified in the vs_bootstrapper.log file:
vs_installer /finalizeInstall install –in “C:\Users\\AppData\Local\Temp\\vs_setup_bootstrapper.json”
but nothing happens. For that matter, nothing happens if I run, for example: vs_installer /invalidFlag. There’s no error output, no log files that I can find, nothing.
My username does not contain spaces.
I don’t know how people are getting the verbose logs I’m seeing elsewhere in this thread. I added the registry key HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Policies\Microsoft\Windows\Installer\Logging with value voicewarmupx. But after running vs_installer, I still do not see any log files written to my C:\Users\\AppData\Local\Temp\ directory, or anywhere else. I tried setting TEMP and TMP to a simpler directory (C:\SetupLog) but nothing gets written there either.
Please let me know if I can provide any additional information. Thank you!
Sorry, that path should be:
vs_installer /finalizeInstall install –in “C:\Users\(username)\AppData\Local\Temp\(GUID)\vs_setup_bootstrapper.json”
Hi Jason,
Thanks for reporting this issue. Can you please run http://aka.ms/vscollect and share the setup log files that get generated (%temp%\vslogs.zip ) by the tools with me at selmai at Microsoft dot com? We will take a look asap.
Thanks,
Selma
previously I had installed VisualStudio 15 Enterprise Preview 3, by using the vs_Enterprise.exe installer. that installer was having the
file/product version 15.0.25428.1 at the file details.
now I wanted to do a fresh installation of the newest Visual Studio 15 Enterprise Preview 5, and I downloaded the vs_Enterprise.exe from
https://download.microsoft.com/download/0/4/9/049EF67D-EDD1-495D-A832-E5AD43B554F4/vs_Enterprise.exe
https://www.visualstudio.com/visual-studio-pre-release-downloads/
https://www.visualstudio.com/en-us/news/releasenotes/vs15-relnotes
and I am a bit confused because of the file details that installer has. at the file details it shows up
file/product version 14.0.25323.2
with confused me, because first it major version is 14, instead of 15, and the minor version I less than those from the preview 3.
ok, I started the installation anyhow and I got 15.0.25807.0 installed.
but it is very confusing when you have the installers having inconsistent version numbers.
Tried to install VS15 Preview5. Getting error at multiple place.
Even after modifying installation package.. Only chosen Web App Development but that also did not work.
Hi,
How to find whether Visual Studio 15 preview 5 is installed or not by checking registry entry?
In VS 2015 installed machine, I have found out below registry for checking whether VS 2015 is installed or not.
Registry Location : HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\WOW6432Node\Microsoft\VisualStudio\14.0 –
KeyValue : InstallDir
Could you please share how to get the install location for VS15 preview 5 from registry location or by programatically?
Regards,
Mohamed Yasir K
Can’t get the installer to work properly:
I get this in the log which I believe had a similar bug in previous versions:
PackageFailureException: Package ‘Microsoft.DiagnosticsHub.KB2882822.Win7’ failed to install at at Microsoft.VisualStudio.Setup.InstallOperation.Run(CancellationToken token)
I have tried downloading the KB manually and it says its already installed. This is a Winodws 7 x64 machine and has all windows updates installed. I think it might have used the recent rollup update if that makes a difference.
Also Xamarin package won’t install, the installer just stops but if you look into the seaparte androi log I get this:
WARNING: The following package(s) were not found:
platform-tools
extra-android-m2repository
tools
The following package(s) were not downloaded: platform-tools extra-android-m2repository tools . Please check your internet connection and try again.
Why this confusing naming – “Visual Studio 2015” and “Visual Studio 15” – and now we have Visual Studio 2017 announced at Connect. Can MS not get the naming simple, straight forward and less confusing?
Soooo confusing – we know 🙁
We give each release a numbered version while it’s in development, and have done for many years. Visual Studio 2015 was v14.0, and for the last year or so we’ve been working on v15.0, which this week we announced will be called Visual Studio 2017. It’s really unfortunate that the numbered versions are colliding with the in-market names for this product.
We’re looking at ways to avoid getting into this situation in the future. In the meantime, thank goodness we’ve finally announced the in-market names so we can just talk about Visual Studio 2015 and Visual Studio 2017 – and apologies for our internal version complexity leaking out.

Great job! I hope that it stimulates people to get rid of Windows entirely!
Hello,
Maybe I found a potential bug in this release. It works well for most of the project. But I had a project that when loaded it – the visual studio crashes at the phase “Parsing files in solution”.
Can you help to have a look or idea?
Thank you!
And please be noted that the issue happens on VS15 preview 5 but it does not with preview 3
