Error loading Windows Universal App template

Question

it's pretty annoying, now just finished with the setup and trying to create a Hello World application with Visual Studio 2015 Enterprise

--------------------------- Microsoft Visual Studio --------------------------- Error: this template attempted to load component assembly 'Microsoft.VisualStudio.Universal.TemplateWizards, Version=14.0.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=b03f5f7f11d50a3a'. For more information on this problem and how to enable this template, please see documentation on Customizing Project Templates. --------------------------- OK --------------------------- 

Now I do not understand what is wrong with him. I tried Comunity Edition for Windows 8.1 and was able to build applications. but trying to use Enterprise Edition on Windows 10 doesn’t rule out an error.

There is not a single development tool on the information page.

Answer 1

I had the same issue on Windows 10 in VirtualBox.

You must run the visual studio installer again. Select "Edit" in the installer. Select Options> Windows and Web Development> Universal Application Development Tools for Windows> Click Update / Install.

Now you can use the project template vs Core IoT Core.

Answer 2

Perhaps you have xamarin for visual studio disabled. Choose Tools> En Updates Extensions> Xamarin For visual studio> Click On.

Answer 3

If such an error occurred in the project from the DirectX project template, make sure that you have the UWP workload installed (from the Visual Studio installer).

Answer 4

here you can find a solution.

above the specified site,

The workaround for this is to edit C: \ Program Files (x86) \ Microsoft Visual Studio \ 2017 \ Enterprise \ Common7 \ IDE \ devenv.exe.config and add to the section:
