Since the installation hang on the update for Microsoft Visual Studio 2015 (KB3165756), you can cancel this installation, then download the KB3165756 and manually install it. After that, make sure windows update is up-to-date, temporarily disable any antivirus software, then re-run the VS installer as administrator.

If this issue persists, you can have a look at this similar issue and try the following methods:

  1. Go to Task Manager, see if there the task of VS and kill all, restart the computer, then re-run the installer as administrator.
  2. Forcibly shut down your computer, so the process is killed and you get a reboot, the installer process will start again.
  3. Open Task Manager in detail mode--> Go to the "Details" tab--> Right Click the VisualStudio Process-->Click on the "Analyze wait chain". You will see the name of the process which is responsible for the wait. Kill this process and the installation maybe process quickly.
