Hi,

We have a server having 3 components of visual studio 2015 in control panel as attached which are ssms extensions/components that got installed automatically. We received some security updates need to be installed on our server. And while installing updates throwing some errors. so, we have followed this link(https://visualstudio.microsoft.com/vs/support/vs2015/this-update-requires-visual-studio-2015-update-3-to-be-installed/) Following this link, it is said to install first update 3 for visual studio 2015. But while trying to install, it is 180344-vss-server.png180345-vss-error.pngthrowing error as attached. Could you please suggest what are all the updates need to be installed. Please provide steps in detail and process required depending on the visual studio products present in the control panel as attached.

    Hi @Harika Anasuya ,

    Welcome to Microsoft Q&A forum.

    Could you please try to download the DVD(ISO) version of Visual Studio 2015 Update 3 from here: Visual Studio 2015 Update 3 Download? As, on April 26, 2021, VS 2015 and older web installer files were removed from the Microsoft Download Center, and only ISO images are available.

    Best Regards,
    Tianyu
