Visual Studio 2015 Update 3 install issue

I am upgrading a project to use Visual Studio 2015 Community Edition and one of the updates it recommends was not installing with an error relating to the Visual Studio 2015 Update 3 update.

After uninstalling and re-installing both the update and Visual Studio itself I eventually had a look on Google for the following error:

Setup has detected that Visual Studio 2015 Update 3 may not be completely installed. Please repair Visual Studio 2015 Update 3, then install this product again.

After seeing that I was not the only one with this issue I decided to follow this fix from this site which works a treat so thank you very much internet!


"DotNetCore.1.0.0-VS2015Tools.Preview2.exe" SKIP_VSU_CHECK=1

As the original post mentions do run the cmd.exe process as an administrator.

Cheers
