Visual Studio 2013 SDK on Windows 10

For some reason the setup is blocked when trying to install VS2013 SDK on a Windows 10 machine.

Any ideas?

enter image description here

Here is a relevant part of the log file:

[5EB4:710C][2015-03-27T11:22:50]i052: Condition 'CompatibilityMode = 0' evaluates to true.
[5EB4:710C][2015-03-27T11:22:50]i052: Condition 'NOT((VersionNT > v6.1) OR (VersionNT = v6.1 AND ServicePackLevel >= 1))' evaluates to false.
[5EB4:710C][2015-03-27T11:22:50]i052: Condition '( NOT ((ProCheck_ProfessionalCore_DetectKey = 1) OR (ProCheck_VSCore_DetectKey = 1)) ) AND (CurrentOperation = "Install") ' evaluates to false.
[5EB4:710C][2015-03-27T11:22:50]i000: MUX:  Stop Block: CompatibilityMode : Windows Program Compatibility mode is on. Turn it off and then try Setup again.

I've got the same error.

Have you renamed the installer? Because I did, so I won't work until you rename it again to vssdk_full.exe.

One common cause of this problem is that Windows' built-in compatibility modes kick in (or don't) because of what seem like minor problems such as the setup executable not having the file name Windows is looking for.

For example, there are scenarios where a user has downloaded the setup package twice which leads to two different executables: vssdk_full.exe and vssdk_full (1).exe. If you launch the latter, you may run into the type of problem described in this thread. The easiest fix is to make it so Windows recognizes the filename but getting rid of the (1) suffix.

Visual Studio 2013 require .Net 3.5 so, you need to install .Net framework 3.5 first, then block will be remove

Found a way to install it. First, you should unpack the installer using command line:

vssdk_full.exe /layout

Choose a folder where you want the files to be extracted. Then press the “Download” button. Go to that folder and start the installer. It will bypass the check and install the SDK.
