Microsoft Visual C++ 2013 Runtime Package for Windows Phone missing

Question

I'm currently developing an windows universal app. I'm using sqlite, which works fine for the Windows 8.1 Project, but fails for the Windows Phone Project ("sqlite3.dll not found"). I think it has something to do with the missing SDK reference to "Microsoft Visual c++ 2013 Runtime Package for Windows Phone".

There is no opton for this SDK, when trying to add it over: Add reference -> Windows Phone 8.1 -> Extensions

I tried to repair visual studio 2015 community and install "Microsoft Visual c++ 2013 Redistributable" but the problem still persists

EDIT:

After updating my OS to Win10 and reinstalling VisualStudio 2015 (which both haven't resolved my problem), I finally was able to fix it:

I just copied the missing SDK directories from another developer machine to my machine. After that, it worked but I have still no clue about the underlying problem...

Answer 1

I've faced with the absolutely same issue: "sqlite3.dll not found" and no option to add reference to "microsoft visual c++ 2013 runtime package for windows phone". I was able to resolved that by uninstalling visual studio 2013 (which was also installed on that PC)
