Visual Studio 2015 update 3 several installation multiple errors

I had installed Visual studio 2015 in April and from past one week I was trying to install the update 3. In first attempt, the installation failed with errors. After which the Visual Studio itself stopped working at all!!. On that, I had uninstalled the update 3, still VS was not working and then SQL server 2014 also stopped working. In between did workarounds:

  1. clear package cache and temp files etc.
  2. Tried re-installing VS2015, sql server 2014 and other missing files based on the errors.

Finally, I had to completely uninstall literally everything that was even remotely linked to Visual Studio viz:

So now I freshly installed framework 4.5, 4.6.2 and sql server 2015. I already had a setup file of VS2015 professional with license, so i installed it. However, it was installing with update 3. So got the below error:

Visual Studio update 3 installation error:

Besides VS is opening :-). But i also need update 3 because I need a MS chatbot template to work with. Thanks in advance !!!

You should remove the Visual Studio 2015 completely, download the Visual Studio 2015 ISO which already has the Update 3 included from the Microsoft page,

enter image description here

mount the ISO and install the VS2015.
