Cannot launch visual studio 2015 community - windows

Sorry if this is in the wrong forum but im not sure where else to post this. After I installed VS 2015 community I encountered this strange error where every time I launch it, it would first show the usual icon then it wont load. I will do a reinstall if the community here isn't able to offer any suggestions.

Visual Studio templates does not appear

i trying create a project with Visual Studio 2019 after a few months but im only see that:
Than i tried to open update vs and i saw this error after finishing update:
How to fix this?
I can't read those errors in that language, but I would suggest two things, both in the VS installer:
Run a repair on your installation.
Make sure you have the relevant workloads installed.
While you're at it, consider upgrading to VS2022 if you can. Given you're on community edition, it's a free upgrade.

Visual Studio 2017 15.7 Preview 2 Hangs While Opening Solution

I've been using Visual Studio 2017 15.7 Preview 2 since it was released -- and Preview 1 prior to that. My experience has been pretty good with it.
All of a sudden today, I just can't get into my project any more. When I click the solution open, I get the "Preparing Solution" message and it just hangs there.
If I try clicking anything in Visual Studio, I get the following message but it doesn't really solve anything.
Anyone else is having this issue? Any idea how to fix it? I just can't work on my project because of this issue.
P.S. I've been using the preview version because I wanted to work in ASP.NET Core 2.1 which requires the preview version of Visual Studio 2017.
Found the answer here. In my case, deleting the .vs folder fixed the issue.

Visual Studio visual bug

This one is a little hard to explain without a picture:
As you can see the window is all messed up. I tried to re-install VS and un-install ReSharper but nothing worked. I'm using VS 2015 Community. This is a really frustrating bug to work with, has anyone else run into this?

Visual Studio 2013 crashes when loading project

Some time ago I started developing with Visual Studio 2013 Professional and everything worked well. But a few weeks ago I upgraded to the Ultimate version. But since then Visual Studio crashes when I load a project. VS just starts up normally, I can see the menu and log in and stuff like that. But when I open a project it crashes everytime. I tried to repair it VS in the control panel, but still the same problem... Then I reinstalled it but when loading a solution it crashed again. Now I downgraded to Professional again, but now even Professional crashes.
I have been searching on google for a long time to solve this problem. I tried to reconfigure the debugger, even reinstalled it, but no effect. A lot of forums say you have to delete the .suo file in the project, but even that doesn't work...
Is there a solution for this?
UPDATE
When Visual Studio crashes I get this error: https://i.imgur.com/VtaikJ5.png?1

I already received the answer from the MSDN forum. And it was caused by the Web Essentials extension tool. And apparently with the Visual Studio Update 4 everything seems to be fixed. The extension tool was causing the error, and that error is fixed in the update.
Thanks for the support everyone!

Visual Studio 2010 and 2013 not working on my system

I apologize as this may seem as bit of a general question.
I have developed a couple of VB programs using Visual Studio 2010 Professional and others on Visual Studio 2013 Ultimate. While I have not done any work in about a month with either version of Visual Studio, I thought I would go in and start work on a new project.
After entering some code in Visual Studio 2010 using WinForms, I found I was unable to run the code in the debugger (pressed the start button and F5).
It acted like it would start, then it just stopped and returned back to my code.
I thought I would try it on another program that was completed and working a couple of months ago, but I had the same issue present itself. Attempting to use Visual Studio 2013 had the same effect.
Any ideas from anyone? Has anyone else experienced this same issue recently? Once again, I do apologize for the lack of examples here, but I'm not sure what I can include to show the problem.
IMO, you should try resetting visual studio settings (and a restart may solve the issue)
you can try following
do it via visual studio -> tools -> import export settings
or you can run this command devenv /resetuserdata
