VS2015 missing frameworks not being installed (universal apps)

Windows 10, Visual Studio 2015 (Community).

I just created a brand new universal app, but when I run the app it hangs on installing framework elements.

1>------ Build started: Project: App1, Configuration: Debug x86 ------ 
1>  App1 -> D:\Development\TV Show Manager\main\App1\bin\x86\Debug\App1.exe 
2>------ Deploy started: Project: App1, Configuration: Debug x86 ------  
2>Updating the layout...  2>Copying files: Total <1 mb to layout... 
2>Checking whether required frameworks are installed...  
2>Framework: Microsoft.NET.CoreRuntime.1.0/x86, app package version 1.0.23117.0 is not currently installed.  
2>Framework: Microsoft.VCLibs.140.00.Debug/x86, app package version 14.0.23019.0 is not currently installed.  
2>Installing missing frameworks...

Anybody happens to know how to solve this problem?

PS: restart visual studio / rebuilds doesn't solve the problem

I had a similar problem and fixed it by installing the missing appx through Powershell as admin. Example for the ones I needed:

Add-AppxPackage "C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft SDKs\Windows Kits\10\ExtensionSDKs\Microsoft.NET.CoreRuntime\1.1\AppX\x86\Microsoft.NET.CoreRuntime.1.1.appx"
Add-AppxPackage "C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft SDKs\Windows Kits\10\ExtensionSDKs\Microsoft.VCLibs\14.0\Appx\Debug\x86\Microsoft.VCLibs.x86.Debug.14.00.appx"

There are lots of appx in the ExtensionSDK folder. Just install those you need and it will work.

In your case, replace 1.1 with 1.0 in the first string.

Seems to be an issue with "Emulators for Windows Mobile 10.0.10240" Uninstalling and reinstalling seems to fix the issue. Can you deploy to a device?
