How do I install IronPython? - visual-studio

I have done the following:
Installed Visual Studio Community 2017 (with all the python tools).
Installed the newest version of IronPython from the IronPython website using the MSI installer.
Opened VSC2017, went all the way to Python, no IronPython project is showing up.
Now I repeated these steps by uninstalling everything and reinstalling 20XX VSC, same thing happens.
I have no idea what I am doing wrong at this point, I've been through every readme and youtube video I can find on the issue.

SQL Server Management Studio 17 problem Visual studio shell isolated

I am getting this problem when trying to launch SQL Server Management Studio 2017. The installation finished with no problems.
problem1
I have reinstalled SSMS, C++ redistributables, .NET Framework 4.5 4.6 4.7, several times, and it keeps the same.
The only thing I can’t install is visual studio 2015 shell isolated. When I try to install, it says the following:
problem2
If I uninstall .NET Framework, and try to install VS Shell isolated, it keeps poping the same screen but with a button of "Accept and install", then it begin to install .NET Framework 4.6 and the screen closes suddenly.
It seems the shell isolated doesnt recognize .NET Framework is installed already, but other software like Visual Studio 2017 Community Edition works perfectly.
It appears in control panel, but if I right-click it, says "change", and then the same screen saying .NET Framework appears.
problem3
Any solution ?
EDIT: I could fix it upgrading to Windows 10. Thanks!
I had a similar issue and fixed it in this way : first I removed all the frameworks I could. After rebooting I removed all the visual c runtime I could. Then, I rebooted again.
After rebooting, I installed in order all the visual c runtime, each bundle in a couple, where x86 was the first. I skipped those who said they were already installed. Finally I installed the framework 4.5.
VS shell should install fine. The issue is due to visual c runtime 2015 being almost compatible with visual c runtime 2017. However, if you manually download and install each version in publication order, the detection should work correctly.
Warning: make a system backup before starting and download all the installers before starting the uninstallation, as after rebooting, certain software may fail as their dependencies could be missing (for example antivirus).

Installing Lync 2013 sdk client side on visual studio 2015

I am trying to install the Lync 2013 SDK on Visual studio 2015, but I get an error saying "MSVS2010 SP1 or higher not found. Go here to download and install"
I've looked up the issue on the web, and the closest thing to a solution is installing a cumulative update, but that was for VS2013, nor can I find any Place to actually download the file.
What do I have to do to complete the Lync 2013 SDK setup?
To install the SDK, you can fake that you have an earlier version of Visual Studio. At least, that seemed to work for me.
What I did was export the registry entries at HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Wow6432Node\Microsoft\VisualStudio\14.0\Setup\vs, searched and replaced VisualStudio\14.0 with VisualStudio\12.0 and imported those registry entries again.
That allowed me to install the SDK and I subsequently removed those imported entries again.
Please make sure (using regedit) that you are not overwriting any existing entries of course.

Issues installing tools for Windows 10 Universal apps after Windows 10 upgrade

I installed Visual Studio 2015 on my machine before I upgraded to Windows 10 a few days ago. I'm having a really hard time installing W10 universal apps. At first, the option for universal apps wasn't listed under project templates. After a few restarts and back and forth, the option was there, the installation of the tools took several hours (I'm on an SSD so installations usually happens within a few minutes). Once it got installed, I either got an error message about loading assemblies, or that the project is not compatible with my version of Visual Studio (I'm running Visual Studio 2015 enterprise).
I have tried repairing and uninstalling then reinstalling/repairing VS, where the result is usually that the situation gets somewhat worse. Now, only test projects are listed under the Windows UAP section (Not Universal). I have also tried both uninstalling and reinstalling the Windows 10 SDK separately with Visual Studio without any effect. Is there a way to perform a complete clean uninstall of Visual Studio 2015 without performing a reinstall of my OS or is there some cache that I should clear?
I uninstall the windows 10 two sdks using the VS installer then open VS again. The universal template showing up. Then install the SDK again and it worked. Hope this will help.

Canopy installation problems, a solution for TIF?

I've been starting with Python in Canopy Enthought for a little more than a month now. I'm struggling with installation at so many levels it drives me crazy.
I want to install modules to deal with tif files, in order to create multiimage tof, etc.
tifffile 0.4
PyLibTiff
I cannot get them through easy_install.
I tried pip install tifffile
I keep getting these errors:
error: Visual Studio 2008 Express Edition was found in your path, but
Visual Studio 2008 is required to build extension modules on a
64-bit platform.
Visual studio is installed, I installed a 2013 express version, then downloaded and installed 2008 too, nothing seems to work.
This is driving my crazy, and honestly I'm not sure I handle the basics of how python handle the different modules. Through different .zip packages, I ended with the tifffile code, I don't know where to put it. There is a .exe installer for PyLibTiff but I can't get it to work either.
If anybody can help, that would save the life of my computer, I feel like it's gonna learn to fly soon.
Thanks a lot !!
Dam.
You need Visual Studio 2008. Not Visual Studio Express 2008.

PTVS doesn't detect IronPython installation

I wanted to change interpreter to IronPython in Visual Studio 2010 with Python Tools for Visual Studio. Last time I hadn't problems with this I got CPython and IronPython on list but now IronPython magically disappeared. After this I tried to restore it and done this:
I reinstalled PTVS, this still didn't helped
I reinstalled IronPython in system and still nothing
So I thought to add this entry manual but I don't know what should I enter there. I can still create project in IronPython and IntelliSense properly suggest me assembles.
Could you show me how to force PTVS to rescan to look for IronPython or what should I enter to add this entry manually.
You probably are running the latest version of IronPython and re-installed PTVS. PTVS currently installs IronPython support conditionally on whether or not it detects that IronPython is installed. Something changed in the latest version of IronPython and the PTVS installer fails to detect that IronPython is installed.
The good news is you can manually select to install IronPython support. First un-install, then start the installer and on the very first screen there's an Advanced button. Click on that and when the feature tree comes up change IronPython support to be installed.
We've changed this for 1.5 so we'll always install IronPython support by default, so in the future this won't be an issue.
