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

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
