Answer 1

Same issue. I had installed Node.js version 6.9.1 manually. After uninstalling via Windows (Control Panel->Programs and Features->NodeJs->Uninstall), I was able to go to Control Panel->Programs and Features->VS2015->"Change"->"Modify" and was given the option to install the Joyent version. Prior to the uninstall, Joyent nodejs was not an option when trying to Change/Modify VS2015.
