Unable to Install Hololens Emulator. Error: Please install Visual Studio 2015 with Update 1 and UWP1

I am struggling to setup Hololens Emulator in my PC.

System Specs:

**> Windows10 Pro

8 GB Primary Memory
Intel i7 Processor
Hyper-V is enabled
Virtualization is Enabled in the BIOS
I have disabled the firewall and windows defender**

I am referring this link to setup the development for hololens development.
https://developer.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/mixed-reality/install_the_tools

I have successfully installed Visual Studio 2017 , the problem arises when I try to install the hololens emulator (build 10.0.14393.0) and it will fail, because the setup expects Visual Studio 2015 Update 1.

This is the short text:

Please install Visual Studio 2015 with Update 1 and UWP tools version 1.2, then run setup again.

Note: I unsuccessfully tried to setup every update of Visual Studio 2015 (1/2/3) all the community editions but they all gave me a "Stopped Working error". I even tried with ISO versions and the result is equivalent.

Here is a snapshot of the system log:
