import from visual studio community 2015 fails

We have a visual studio project built in the 2015 community addition using c++. It runs as a windows application on the machine it was built on. Trying to make an installer with version 12.6.1 we used new->installer=>visual studio application. Then after giving it the path to the solution file it hang in the "loading visual studio" dialog with an error ".NETFramework, Version=v5.4.2 is not installed on this machine" but it is installed and trying to re-install it, generates the message that it is already installed.
Is advanced installer usable with the visual studio community version? Is there some fix for this?

Re: import from visual studio community 2015 fails

Hello,

I'm not sure why this happens. I have tested with AI 12.6.1 the import of a solution file created with VS 2015 Community edition and everything went well.

Can you please attach a screenshot with the error you get? Also, can you try to uninstall the required .Net version (4.5.2) from your machine and then reinstall it again?

If you could send us a test solution file (SLN + all of its referenced projects - without source code files) which replicates this issue to support at advancedinstaller dot com, this will be very useful.

All the best,
Daniel
