Visual Studio 2015 Update 2 has been released, however it doesn't detail any methods of upgrading from Update 1 to Update 2 - and no updates are shown for it in the 'Extensions and Updates' dialog.
Does anybody know the correct method of upgrading from Update 1 to Update 2?
A little late, but it appears you can upgrade through VS now. This seemed to work for me: under Tools > Extensions & Updates...
A window will pop up and on the left hand panel click on Updates.
You should be able to find the update there; mine had the label Visual Studio 2015 Update 2
I suppose that they forgot to put it inside the updates, you can download it from their web

I hope this helps
Found an answer here. You can download the installer from http://my.visualstudio.com and run it with custom command line arguments. To install update 1, it would be vs_enterprise.exe /OverrideFeedURI http://download.microsoft.com/download/3/2/A/32A1974F-D236-43C1-8981-97DDCBAEF14A/20160225.3/enu/feed.xml.
You should see a notification for VS update 1 in the top right corner of the IDE. It looks like this:
Click this and select VS Update 1.
If you don't see it in the notification center, then go to Tools -> Extensions and Updates and click on the Updates tab. You should see an item for VS Update 1 in the list.
if you have a need to install update 1, without installing update 2.
Download the offline installer, which is a ISO file of about 4 GB.
http://download.microsoft.com/download/4/C/1/4C113E0D-8590-47AB-B7B8-E41E0AD7936D/vs2015.1.vsu.iso
Open the iso and following folder
ServicedSetupPayloads\OfflineCache\installers\VSU_14.0.24720\en\0
There you can get the update 1 setup.
You downloaded Update 2 RC.

I recently installed Update 5 to my Visual Studio 2013, and now i can not sign in to my Microsoft Account or open Team Explorer view to work with Git.
When I click "Sign In" button in top right corner nothing happens (any bugs or warnings) - the login window does not appear. The same is with Team Explorer view - when I click View -> Team Explorer nothing happens. Befere I installed Update 5 I used it to work with GIT.
Maybe this will be helpful. First time I cancelled Update installation but the second time it was installed successfully.
A few of us had this problem at work and had to uninstall then reinstall Visual Studio, at which point it worked fine. I'm not entirely sure what the issue was or if there's a better way to fix it.
I need Visual Studio 2015 Community edition without the update 1, but I can't find it anywhere. Been searching Microsofts pages but all downloads just points to the latest version which includes update 1 (and I want the older tools included before the update 1 came).
Can anyone help?
In answering another question, #BoltClock explains that you can uninstall individual updates via the View Installed Updates window in the Control Panel.
You can install VS with the update and then try uninstalling the update via the Control Panel. I don't know that it will work, so if it does, come back and comment. ;)
Here it is. I found this on microsoft download website.

Sorry for dupplicate.
I installed VS 2013 with Update 3 on disk E. By using a software, I merged disk D and E to one partition. And the data was lost.
But, i restarted my pc, i could still uninstalled some software. VS 2013 is not one of them.
VS said that it needs a source to complete. I can't provide it. Nothing in disk E, it includes VS 2013 source.
After that. I linked to visualstudio.com and download new version. It's VS 2013 with Update 4.
I downloaded iso file, and burned to my usb.
When running as administrator, it shows me 1 error and many warning. Like this:
The form specified for the subject is not one supported or known by the specified trust provider.
The installer was stopped.
I had referenced many relate, some ideas are:
-- Uninstall VS 2013 Update 3. Restart and try to install VS Update 4. I can't do this.
-- Read this link: Visual Studio 2013 Setup: common issues and workarounds. I read and... still didn't see any solution to solve my trouble. The installer didn't tell me "Why" or give me any error code about the problem.
So, my problem is:
I have VS 2013 with Update 3 on my system, and the source was lost. I can't uninstall it.
I want to install new VS 2013 with Update 4 within Update 3. But I don't know how to do that.
Can you give me any solution?
Thanks so much!
I don't understand what is meant by "I want to install new VS 2013 with Update 4 within Update 3". However, I can provide you the steps to uninstall an update of VS 2013.
Go to Control Panel->Programs->Programs and Features.
Now on the left you will see View installed updates on the top left of the side bar as shown below.
Now under VS 2013, you should be able to see all the updates. Right click an update and click Uninstall.
Good Luck!
For a couple of weeks now I have been unable to merge Views within Visual Studio 2013 in response to conflicts when getting Source Code from Visual Studio Team Services. I am sure I used to be able to this (we recently moved from Visual Studio Professional 2012 so I cannot be one hundred percent certain - automerging may have been sufficient in the early days of the project).
The "Accept Merge" and move to next change/conflict buttons are all greyed out and inoperable. See screenshot snippet-
This originally only happened with Views, but now seems to affect some other classes. Changes are highlighted and indicated on the scroll bar so the diff tool otherwise appears to be functioning. This only originally affected me, but now affects a new colleague into the team.
I can still either Keep Local Version or Take Server Version but this is rarely sufficient. This leaves me manually altering the local copy to apply changes highlighted by the merge tool. (Edit - See a better workaround in "Second Update" below).
Has anyone come across this before?
Visual Studio 2013 Premium (patch RTM/Update 1/Update 2 - all with the same problem), with Resharper 8.2 (originally 8.0.2) C# and Web Essentials installed. Running on Windows 7 Professional x64.
Project is ASP.NET 4.5 using MVC 5.1.2 (now additionally updated from MVC 5 where the problem first occurred) (upgraded from MVC 4 following the upgrade instructions on the ASP.NET website) in C#, using latest versions of Razor (3.1.2) and Entity Framework (6.1.0 RTM).
Edit: Initially a repair install of Visual Studio 2013 appeared to have fixed the issue. It has now however returned exactly as it was before. Since it took an hour to do the repair I cannot repeatedly do this in order to merge views. I am currently able to round trip the solution between Visual Studio 2012 Update 4 and Visual Studio 2013 in order to do merges in Visual Studio 2012 where it is working normally.
Second Edit: I am currently manually resolving conflicts by selecting the desired code (local/server), saving the merge window and then closing it which will prompt to accept the merge result. This seems to function but is obviously sub-optimal. It may however be helpful for other users.
In the event, installing Resharper 8.1 on top of 8.02 appears to have fixed it fixed it briefly before the problem returned yet again. I had previously completed a repair install of Visual Studio Premium 2013 as well - which briefly seemed to have fixed it before it broke again. I only mention it in case the fix is cumulative.
I am unclear if it was a bug in Resharper that was somehow preventing the merge, or a persistent problem with the installation that the upgrade cleaned up (Resharper removes previous versions and then installs updates, rather than attempting to install over the top). Update - I am extremely confident that this is not related to ReSharper and that it was the configuration of Visual Studio as a result of re-installing the extension and not the extension itself that fixed the issue.
In either case, the issue (for now) seems to have disappeared and this seems to be related to the upgrade, or is an extremely strong co-incidence.
Colleagues with the same versions of Visual Studio and Resharper, working on the same project, the same version of Windows and (in one case) the same hardware were not affected, so it seems likely it is an edge case niche issue caused by corrupted data somewhere.
I have a current working theory that this is related to different patch versions of Visual Studio (for example Visual Studio 2012 Update 2, Visual Studio 2013 RTM, Visual Studio 2013 Update 1, Visual Studio 2013 Update 2. This only affects Visual Studio 2013 for us.
Simple solution I use is carry on with your manual merge process once you are done simply Close the Merge-* tab (the one you are using to merge files) this will bring up a prompt for confirming if you want to Save the changes made (this is the merge changes you made to your local file) click 'yes' Now it comes back to Resolve Conflicts tab and brings up another prompt asking if you want to Accept Merge Result, click 'yes'(this is same as the button Accept Merge)
Since you have VS2012 installed and merge is working there, you can create a link to its TF.exe in VS2013, similar to one on the picture below, and fix the issues there. Set Command to c:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Visual Studio 11.0\Common7\IDE\TF.exe and Arguments to resolve.
You do that in Tools->External Tools.
