VSIXInstaller.NoApplicableSKUsException: This extension is not installable on any currently installed products
I tried to install enterprise library 6.0 recently in visual studio 2015 but the installer throws an error:
VSIXInstaller.NoApplicableSKUsException: This extension is not installable on any currently installed products.
I couldn't resolve it.

Answer
From the log file, we can get this extension is support on VS 2012 ultimate/premium/professional, and it found the installed product is VS 2015, so the error message “This extension is not installable on any currently installed products” popups, and we can also know this from system requirement of Microsoft Enterprise Library 6.
To solve it, you can have a look at this similar issue and directly download the Microsoft.Practices.EnterpriseLibrary.ConfigConsole.V6.VS2015.vsix (Source) and use it to install, it works fine on my side.
