Might be as simple to fix as adding the correct path here. https://github.com/D-Programming-Language/installer/blob/eee4042403a1067d74d548a42eca363d15abf1c1/windows/d2-installer.nsi#L268

Thanks for creating this issue. Attaching three files in case they help with implementation.

1) vs2013u5_sc.ini
2) vs2015_sc.ini
3) diff.sc.ini

(1) is the sc.ini file resulting from running the dmd-2.068.0-b2.exe installer after installing Visual Studio Community 2013 with Update 5. The -m64 switch works with DMD in this case.

(2) is the sc.ini file resulting from trying the same with Visual Studio Community 2015. This is the fail case.

(3) is a diff comparing the 2015 version against the 2013 version.

Now that I have VS2015 setup, I get the following link errors for hello world. Can someone help with that?

It seems CRT was changed heavily for VS2015. http://blogs.msdn.com/b/vcblog/archive/2014/06/10/the-great-crt-refactoring.aspx
