Installing VS2015 Roslyn

New computer build, clean install of Win 10, installed VS2017. After struggling with VS2017 issues for a few weeks I decided to go back to VS2015 and wait for an update. I uninstalled 2017 without problems, but when I try to install 2015 I get a message that Roslyn Language Services can't be installed because there's already a version installed and to uninstall RLS using Add/Remove Programs in the control panel. No such thing as Roslyn in the Apps list.

Is there another way to uninstall RLS 2017 so I can finish installing VS2015?

I got a similar error, and couldn't Repair 2015. I was able to resolve it when uninstalling an entry in "Programs and Features" titled similar to "Visual Studio for Applications 2015 Languages". I thought this was spoken/written languages, but it related to programming languages (the Roslyn service shows up in the Visual Studio dialog after clicking uninstall on that entry).
