Visual Studio has a new update available that everyone should take. Lots of great fixes!

Best fix for HoloLens:
You will no longer need to restart Visual Studio every time your device goes to sleep due to "Unexpected Error: -2145615869"

Awesome...was about to ask about that error still occuring on Unity 22.. thanks.!
Anyone else getting a build error citing "Illegal characters in path" after installing the update? I'm getting this when attempting to build to the emulator.
I've also tried installing the Remote Tools for Visual Studio 2015 Update 3 per suggested (CTRL+F 'illegal') to no avail.
Tried on two machines.
Hi @Jarem,
I have not hit this issue with any of my existing projects. Could you share your project path? Have you had any issues building a brand new project (be sure to keep your path short with no spaces)?
Please read thread VS 2015 Update 3 issues?
@Patrick also found this command in another external post
"run this from the VS command prompt as administrator:"
"devenv /setup"

Since VS Update 3 there have been a couple of other updates released that people may be interested in:
Both of these items will likely appear in your Visual Studio 2015 notifications (the little flag and number that appears on Visual Studio's title bar):

Another new patch for VS Update 3 was released.
Looks like there were a few issues with Update 3 that are quickly getting cleaned up.
