I just installed Visual Studio community 2015 onto my computer (Win 10) and each time I try to create a C++ project I get this message:

Unable to read the project file "projectname.vcxproj". C:\Program Files\Windows Kits\8.1\DesignTime\CommonConfiguration\neutral\Windows.arm.props : error MSB4025: The project file could not be loaded. Root element is missing

    Are you creating an arm project? Looks like an install failure. There were a few installation bugs with Visual Studio 2015. Did you fully update it to the latest release? – drescherjm Nov 22 '16 at 17:23
