With some difficulty, I was able to uninstall Incredibuild (kept saying Visual Studio was open even when it wasn't), but it was unable to uninstall the Visual Studio addin (just said an error occurred when doing so in the log). The addin doesn't show up in Visual Studio's extensions dialog, and I don't know how else to uninstall it. I think it might be slowing VS down, and it never worked to begin with (kept asking for a license key and I was unable to find a key for the free edition I installed)...

A: By right-clicking the Incredibuild tray-icon and selecting Disable Agent. This can also be done remotely from the Coordinator Monitor.
To enable the Incredibuild menu, in Visual Studio, go to Tools > Customize > Extensions Menu, select Incredibuild and then click Save and Restart. To enable the Incredibuild toolbar, go to Tools > Customize > Toolbars, select Incredibuild and then click Close.
Incredibuild dramatically accelerates compilation, tests, and other compute-intensive tasks by seamlessly and concurrently distributing workload processes across idle CPUs in your local network or in the cloud.
I had a similar issue (though I am in VS17 and not VS15).
I honestly don't understand why it isn't removed when you uninstall Incredibuild because one of the processes listed while uninstalling is to remove the VS add-in or why the add-in doesn't initially have the option to uninstall but this is how I managed to finally remove it.
Hopefully this will help anyone. Cheers!
