Trying to update VS Studio 2015 Shell ( Integrated ) with Update 3 using vs2015.3.exe file downloaded from https://aka.ms/vs/14/release/2015_Update3.

I keep getting the below error

Hi @Ak-5457,

Welcome to Microsoft Q&A!

The error “Setup Package is missing or corrupted” often means your installation package is corrupted or damaged.
Please try to download the required version of VS2015 from Microsoft download page and run it as administrator. During the installation, please temporarily disable any anti-virus software.

Sincerely,
Anna

Hi @AnnaXiu-MSFT - Thanks for the reply.
Can you confirm if reinstalling VS 2015 Shell ( Integrated ) requires any license key activation? Our VS IDE is mainly centered around SSIS usage.

Dear customer, it shows “No key required” in download page. I suppose you can install the VS 2015 Shell (Integrated) with no license key.

Hello we encounter the same problem when trying to apply VS 2015 Update 3 on a VS 2015 isolated shell installation.

We retrieved the installation logs with collect.exe and we notice this error which seems to point to broken links:

Disabling the antivirus/firewall does not fix the issue.

I have a client that still uses VS Studio 2015 for some repositories.
Running into the same issues with missing or damaged packages and this 'preperation.exe' file.
There was a fix once where Microsoft made this file available but the site just returns a 404 now.
I'd prefer to convert all projects to VS Pro 2019 but I don't own the code.
