Nothing but problems trying to install VS 2015 on Win10

Tons of errors regarding missing dll’s not being installed in C:Program Files (x86)Microsoft Visual Studio 14.0Common7IDE. For example:
Activation context generation failed for “C:Program Files (x86)Microsoft Visual Studio 14.0Common7IDEdevenv.exe”. Dependent Assembly coloader80.dll,processorArchitecture=”X86″,type=”win32″,version=”1.0.0.0″ could not be found. Please use sxstrace.exe for detailed diagnosis.

Tried full uninstall, repair, etc. No other VS version on machine.

I wasted hours of time trying to get this working. Any suggestions?

Sorry double post in “Other MS Apps”

Thanks Bender but it didn’t help. Even downloaded an ISO and tried to install via that route, no luck.

I noted the double posting on the other since it seemed the better forum. Should have deleted this one.
