The "TypeScript.Tasks.VsTsc" task could not be loaded from the assembly "xxx"

Hi,

System: Windows 8.1

I had the same problem as that outlined in the StackOverflow question VS2015 preview + TypeScript 1.3 = error.

Unlike the OP in that question, I already had the TypeScript.Tasks.dll in the v14.0 folder.

I was able to resolve the errors by running repair on the TS Powertool for VS 2013.

It doesn't seem right that TypeScript for VS 2015 should have a dependency on the VS 2013 Powertool.

Both installs share some files, the msbuild task is one of those as is the compiler (tsc.exe) and due to a versioning issue some combinations of VS2015, VS2013 Update4, and TypeScript 1.3 causes issues.

We have resolved this for the next version of TypeScript.
