Question

Why installing term3 on atom (Windows 10, Visual Studio 2015) I get the following error. I tried all the solution available on the internet but can't help the issue. Can someone help me fix this?

I already have visual studio installed npm msvs_version is set to 2015 and python 2.7.3 installed on my PC.

Answer 1

Here is the error message by your logs:
The Windows SDK version 8.1 was not found.
So the Workaround is to:
Install Visual C++ projects support to Visual Studio 2015 (requires 3GB space).
