Do you have the "Windows XP Support for C++" component of VS 2015
installed? I'm sure our project files need it, and although I never
tested what /exactly/ happens when it's missing, the symptoms appear to
be at least in the right ballpark to potentially fit that bill.

Alternatively something might have gone wrong with the installation of
the updated Windows C++ runtime library. Check to see whether you have
the following directory on your machine:

    %ProgramFiles(x86)%\Windows Kits\10\Include\10.0.10586.0
