How to download Visual Studio Community Edition 2015 (not 2017)

visual-studio visual-studio-2015

I have a Resharper 9x license and it is only compatible up to MS VS Community 2015 edition. I tried to download the 2015 version from Microsoft but their website stubbornly wants me to have 2017, only. Can someone please provide me a url to the 2015 edition? Or, explain how to navigate Microsoft's site to obtain the 2015 edition?

Update on solution

1) vs_community.exe is the download filename for any version, 2015, 2017, etc. You will not know which version it is until you click the .exe. You will then see the version in the title of the installer.

2) There is a url trick to get the version that you want.

...change the rel=15 to rel=17 etc

Or use the links provided in the answer below

"url trick" link does not work any more. The links in the actual answer do.

Thanks for the iso, as my company firewall prevents the download in the Visual studio web installer.

Life saver. I was searching for at least an hour before I found this. MS has wiped the earth of VS2015 downloads. I'm surprised these links still work.

Thank you sir, for being more effective than the moronic conglomerate that is Microsoft.

The web installer of the community version now automatically updates and offers to install versions of VS2017. The ISO link still seems to work.

very very helpful. Can't find a link to download it from anywhere else and got it from here.

The "official" way to get the vs2015 is to go to https://my.visualstudio.com/ ; join the " Visual Studio Dev Essentials" and then search the relevant file to download https://my.visualstudio.com/Downloads?q=Visual%20Studio%202015%20with%20Update%203

Sure, you can, but the "correct answer" is the one with 95% of the upvotes.

This hasn't worked for a long time and is NOT the "correct" answer if you're actually trying to help other developers. The search comes up empty, even if you've joined "Visual Studio Dev Essentials".

I can't do that since it keeps saying that I have to rejoin Dev Essentials. The correct answer, however helped me.
