I installed Visual Studio Community 2015 Update 3 and it worked for a bit. I tried to open it after a few weeks of not using it and I get the message popup:
Cannot start VS Community 2015: The 'Microsoft.VisualStudio.Shell.Connected.Packages.OnlineLicensing.OnlineLicensingManagerPackage' package did not load correctly
1) I checked the log (below) and it didn't help.
2) I tried to do devenv /setup
3) I tried to do devenv /log. I get a popup from Visua Studio to sign in, create an account, or skip and I tried to do sign in but it just closes. Same for skip.
4) I tried to do devenv /ResetSettings
5) I tried to do repair
6) I tried to do /uninstall /force and then reinstall full
7) I tried to delete my registry keys that devenv was trying to use for license
8) I tried to do devenv /clean and got "The license for Visual Studio has expired."
