attempting to install build tools with vs2015 flag is broken. #249

I ran the command "npm install --global windows-build-tools --vs2015" to install the required compiler tool chain and msbuild for my project, but the issue is that I see a lot of download failures for msbuild for Visual Studio Tools, The tools are ultimately not installed at all in the end. Trying to install Visual Studio 2015 also has similar errors as well with downloading. As a result I am unable to compile my project at all. This happens on two computers that I have, so its an issue with the download repositories. Please fix this issue as soon as possible, as its an important prerequisite for some projects.

+1, assigned '--vs2015' but it was vs2017 which installed on my Windows10.
