I have VS Community 2015 Update three installed. I am trying to learn UWP but I keep getting the following error when trying to launch
One thing I noticed is that all the videos and screenshots I've seen online say "Universal" and mine says "UAP" uner "Installed\Templates\VisualC#\Windows\
This is what I have installed:
I do not have any problems opening any other templates, only the "UAP". I've been using this program all the while but with basic c# console applications. Moving to UWP now and this is what I'm faced with.
Things I've tried:
Uninstalling and Reinstalling nugget manager
Repairing VS installation in control panel.
Thank you in advance for your suggestions.
P.S I'm on Windows 10 Pro 14393.222
Well you can try this one -
Run the visual studio installer again. Select Modify in the Installer. Select Features - "Windows and Web Development" - "Universal Windows App Development Tools". Now try to Update. It doesn't guarantee that it will solve the problem. But on few machines it worked..
I solved this by totally uninstalling visual studio with a /uninstall /force
All the sdks and emulators were uninstalled as well.
Launched a new install from the ISO file and everything is fine now.

Environment:
Windows10 Professional Visual Studio 2017 Unity 2017.4.12f1
I changed the default installation path of Visual Studio 2017 and installed it successfully.
The install path as follows:
D:\win10\Program\visual_studio\2017
However, in the Build setting of Unity, it still can't find my Visual Studio 2017.
How can I solve the problem? Thanks~
Go to Edit > Preferences, and select your Visual Studio to be the preferred external editor. Use Browse if Visual Studio is not listed. More info here.
You need to install windows 10 SDK

Here's a third answer. I just bumped in to this, and checked that yes VS was the preferred editor, so I went to open up VS to try uninstalling and reinstalling the GameDevWithUnity workflow, but VS popped up a dialog saying I needed to reboot my computer before installation could complete. So it seems like VS was stuck in the middle of an upgrade, which makes it reasonable that Unity couldn't find an appropriate version. I rebooted and everyone is happy.
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.
Unable to attach debugger "File not Found" using template for Apache Cordova in vs 2013. Happening on both Win 8.1 64 machine and win 7 SP1 64 machine.
Project builds and runs correctly in both emulator and ripple but generates error "Unable To Attach. The system can not find the file specified." No further information is given - as in what file is not being found, which would have been nice.
Unlike the other solutions I have seen on web, installs on both machines ARE on a system drive. Latest updates are installed for node, git and android sdk. Environment variables and path variables are correct on both machines. Tried all api's 19 and above, uninstalling and reinstalling the tool multiple times, updating from command line.
Issue occurred after switching from visual studio 2013 Pro update 3 to community edition update 4 on both machines.
Have even tried uninstalling every piece of software having to do with android dev (Eclipse, Android Studio, Cordova, Phonegap, the tool) and reinstalling the Cordova Tool with all of the default options. Still same error on both machines - currently just using chrome to debug.
Noticed that it seems to be a similar error(the adb.exe error) but without the file name, given when trying to debug on a phone that has less than 4.4.
Any suggestions? Thank you for any help in advance.
I had exactly the same error and I successfully resolved it.
My configuration:
Windows 7 Pro 64 bits - French
Visual Studio 2013 Update 4 (French Edition)
CTP 3
What I did to solve the problem:
First, I installed ENU Language Pack for Visual Studio to install English language
Then, I switched the language of my Visual Studio to english
Finally, I repaired my CTP 3.0 installation.
After that, I was able to debug application from my android device.
Another solution (but not suitable for everyone since it's required a MSDN Account) : using the Visual Studio 2015 Preview.
What is the version/build number/size of the resources assembly in
C:\Windows\Microsoft.NET\assembly\GAC_MSIL\Microsoft.VisualStudio.WebClient.Diagnostics.HtmlToolHost.resources\12.0.* ?
You can right click on the binary and check its properties.
Thanks
I am trying to install Multi-Device Hybrid Apps extension on Visual Studio 2013 (Ultimate). But Installation got stuck when Android SDK being install. I have waited for 2 to 3 hours but it stuck there. I have cancelled the process and tried again but same issue.
Can anyone help me to fix this issue?
Thank you
I had a similar problem for Visual Studio 2015 RC1. The Android images take a long time to download, especially if you are downloading other things on the same network and have slow internet.
I found the AndroidSDK_SI.log file in %temp% and it shows it was actually still downloading even after 3 hours!
I believe the installer really needs to show better feedback. It seemed like the installer was hung, but it was actually downloading very slowly. Something as dirty as an option to read the currently running log file being in a text box would even help.
You can also kill the SecondaryInstaller.exe in Task Manager to stop the Android SDK sub-installer. You can then try fix it yourself or Repair Visual Studio if the install continues and completes.
Repair is available by right clicking on Visual Studio in the Microsoft Windows "Programs and Features" control panel section and clicking "Change". This will bring up a Visual Studio dialog where you can Modify or Repair the install.
I'm struggling on an installation problem with visual studio ultimate 2013: after the download of the web installer I tried to open it but the installer started just for a split second and than it went away, I tried with the iso, same story, tried to repair the .net framework but nothing's changed, I also made an attempt running as administrator but even that didn't work.
Do you have any idea?
Thanks in advance.
