Visual Studio 2015 - Extension Error

Navigation

Whenever I open my Visual Studio 2015, it gives me this message:

This is the log that the message points to:

For some reason, an extension has been installed more than once.

This seems to be a common problem. The most comprehensive solution I found is in the English OS . Disregard the tag used there, because the problem is VS and not language. Here is a translation:

  • Go to control panel;
  • Select Visual Studio;
  • Select options to change / modify, until you reach the window where you can modify Visual Studio extensions;
  • Use the window to remove conflicting extensions. In the specific case of this question, the development kits for desktop and Windows Store should probably be uninstalled, as both presented conflicts (not the first to conflict with the second - are really two errors).
  • Confirm everything and restart your computer.

If this does not resolve, you may need to uninstall other extensions.

If Visual Studio opens correctly after these steps, you can try to install the extensions again by following the same steps above.
