Typescript error tsc.exe" exited with code 1

I am using VS 2015 update 3. I have installed Typescript tools 2.0.6 for visual studio. I keep getting the error

Error   MSB6006 "tsc.exe" exited with code 1.   ReportBook.Web  C:\Program Files (x86)\MSBuild\Microsoft\VisualStudio\v14.0\TypeScript\Microsoft.TypeScript.targets 222 

So I did a little digging and found something rather curious:

Unknown output: Cannot open file 'C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft SDKs\TypeScript\2.0\tsc.js'.

So I decided to check the file location and there was no tsc.js file there. I cant figure out what this is all about and I am yet to find any answers online. Hope somebody would help me out with some information on how to get past this one

I was getting this error too. The problem was that in my batch script. Since I am using Typescript, before calling msbuild.exe I did a full search of all .js files and delete them.

Not only application .js where deleted, but also the tsc.js itself inside the TypScript package folder.

You need to make sure to ignore the subfolder package before delete all .js files! :-)

Really you installed the Type Script package? try to reinstall the package, the file tsc.js should be there.

I hope this help
