Does Visual Studio 2015 works with Windows 10?

Question

I am trying to install Visual Studio Professional 2015 on windows 10 but it just hangs every time. It starts correctly but hangs in the middle. See the screenshot. Note: I've seen this question Windows 10 and Visual Studio 2015 and the Visual Studio page but didn't help it. Stopping shows because I cancelled it after 10 hours.

You need to list what you've attempted to do / tried but here's my list, start from top to bottom.

1. The file may be blocked as Win10 does this for me all the time, right click on the .exe properties and click unblock.
2. Have you tried install as admin (right click run as admin)
3. Tried turning off your anti virus and install?
4. Tried re downloading the application then installing again?
5. Are you installing it on another HDD and not C Drive? (try installing it on another HDD if possible)
6. Did you do a clean install of Windows 10 or just an upgrade?, if true then delete any old files/uninstall from windows.old folder(think its hidden from memory)
7. Did you previously have another Visual Studio installed? Delete old registry keys or any traces of visual studio
