How do I download this?!

1

For the past three hours, I have been hitting roadblock after roadblock with downloading this software. What am I doing wrong? I have downloaded visual studio 2015, I have downloaded monogame and ran the setup, and nothing is working. I cannot access MonoGame through visual studio, the setup for MonoGame doesn’t let me select the version of Visual Studio that I am using. I have tried copying and pasting the MonoGame folder into the Visual Studio Visual C# templates folder, but Visual Studio still does not detect MonoGame.

I am about to just uninstall this software because it’s so infuriating that what should be a simple installation process is this overly long and complicated. What am I doing wrong when downloading and trying to run this program?

Here’s the information I assume you would need to know:

Windows 7 OS
Visual Studio 2015
Trying to download latest version

We need a more robust method of detecting the user’s installs of Visual Studio in the MonoGame installer. The issue is that we run as administrator, and if your user is not an administrator it cannot find the VS install because it is a user-specific thing.
