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 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.
