Question
Wednesday, November 16, 2016 10:50 PM
I installed Visual Studio 2015 first and then used the manual installer to install Windows 10 SDK (ver. 10.0.14393.0 from here : https://developer.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/downloads/windows-10-sdk)
I'm getting the following error in the log file when the install fails:
CAQuietExec: Error: Failed to build Union WinMD. See MDMerge tool logs at C:\Users\DJ034663\AppData\Local\Temp\UnionWinmdWorkingFolder\Logs\22667-MDMerge.log and C:\Users\DJ034663\AppData\Local\Temp\UnionWinmdWorkingFolder\Logs\22667-MDMerge.err
CAQuietExec: Error 0x80070002: Command line returned an error.
CAQuietExec: Error 0x80070002: CAQuietExec Failed
CustomAction GenUnionWinMD returned actual error code 1603 (note this may not be 100% accurate if translation happened inside sandbox)
I also tried to install from Visual Studio and I get the following error:
Windows 10 SDK (10.0.14393)
The installer failed. Fatal error during installation. Error code: -2147023293
I had Visual Studio 2013 and Windows SDK 8.1 installed earlier. I am using a Windows 7 machine.
I cannot find Windows Sdk or Microsoft SDK listed in the list of Programs to uninstall in Control Panel.
Please let me know what I am doing wrong and what I can do to fix it.
Thanks!

Hi Disha98,
Thank you for your post.
For your question:
Win 10 SDK require at least Hyper-V support on target operational system.
Win 7 haven't support for Hyper-V. Hyper-V is only supported on x64 version of Windows 8 and later
According to the Windows 10 SDK install documents: https://developer.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/downloads/windows-10-sdk
This SDK also supports building Windows apps and desktop applications for Windows 8.1, Windows Server 2012, Windows Server 2008 R2, and Windows Server 2008. For earlier versions of the Windows and Windows Phone SDKs, see the Archive page.
The newest windows 10 SDK doesn't support install on the window 7 platform.
So if you really need to use the Win 10 SDK, you'd better backup all your important files well, upgrading your OS to Windows 8.1 or later version.
