MEX file is not compiled in MATLAB 2015a in windows 10

I have windows 10 and matlab 2015a and visual studio 2015 and .NET FRAMEWORK 4.6. but whenever I try to compile the file it gives me the error you don't have win7.1 SDK. win7.1 SDK requires .NET FRAMEWORK 4.0 and whenever I try to install .NET FRAMEWORK 4.0 it gives prompts me that you already have a higher version of .NET FRAMEWORK 4.0 so you cannot install.

R2015a is not compatible with using compilers on Windows 10, due to bugs in Windows 10.

I did see one person say they managed to do it. What they did was install (on a clean disk) a previous version of MS Windows with .NET 4.0 and SDK 7.1 and MATLAB R2015a, and then they upgraded that to Windows 10.

Hi, I've been struggling all afternoon with the same problem. Indeed, you cannot install .NET framework 4 on Windows 10. However, you do necessarily need it for compiling in Matlab. What you need is the "Microsoft Visual C++ 2010 Service Pack 1 Compiler Update for the Windows SDK 7.1 ", which you can download at: https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=4422 . Install this pack and you are ready to compile :)

I am getting error when I am trying to use mex GVF.cpp in window 7 bit 64 and MATLAB 2015a but getting this error "Error using mex No supported compiler or SDK was found. For options, visit http://www.mathworks.com/support/compilers/R2015a/win64.html"

@ Walter Roberson will you guide me what I have to do to fix this error?

Which compiler did you install? If it was Visual Studios then was it Professional, or was it Express, or was it Community ?
