Thanks Graham.  Ran setup again and chose the additional features – that fixed it.  Best regards…Paul

Hi,

I’m upgrading my Windows 10 dev machine from VS2013 to VS2015 Community Edition.  The Win32/64: Step-by-Step Guide give 
guidance to the Visual Studio command prompt indicating to look for VS2015 x64 Native Tools Command Prompt.  I don’t 
have this anywhere in my menu system.  I have two other command prompt shortcuts:

MS Build Command Prompt that runs the command: "C:\Windows\System32\cmd.exe" /k ""C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft 
Visual Studio 14.0\Common7\Tools\VsMSBuildCmd.bat""

Developer Command Prompts that runs the command: "C:\Windows\System32\cmd.exe" /k ""C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft 
Visual Studio 14.0\Common7\Tools\VsDevCmd.bat""

Are either of these the command shells I should be using?

Thanks and regards…Paul


You've probably missed a recent update to the docs about installing VS2015 community Edition using Chocolatey:

You can use Chocolatey to install Visual Studio, to correctly configure the installation, copy the deployment XML file 
msvc2015AdminDeployment.xml<https://code.wireshark.org/review/gitweb?p=wireshark.git;a=blob_plain;f=tools/msvc2015AdminDeployment.xml;hb=HEAD>
 from the source code tools directory and pass the path the file to the chocolatey install command:
PS$>choco install VisualStudio2015Community --timeout 0 -package-parameters "--AdminFile 
path\to\msvc2015AdminDeployment.xml"

If you installed VS2015 manually, then you'll have to modify the installation to include the "Common Tools for Visual 
C++ 2015" item as also described in the Developers guide.
