It appears you were trying to install KB3165756 on a RTM version of VS 2015. You must first install VS 2015 SP3 and then you can install the KB update after that. You can read about and download it here).

The link is correct but the Q&A site is incorrectly stripping off the last paren when you click or copy it. Here's the link without the markdown

https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/previous-versions/mt752379(v=vs.140)

If you click this link then it'll strip off the last paren. Either put it back on or copy the URL manually and paste it into the browser.
