Is the ico editor gone with vs2015 update 1

I installed VS2015 (14.0.24720) update 1.

I ended up reinstalling VS 2015 to get the image editor back, but it's possible I didn't have to: Looking at it now that it is working properly, by right-clicking the icon in the project explorer and selecting "Open With," I can see that the association in Visual Studio is with a tool called "Resource Editor." I honestly don't know if that option was available before the reinstall - I was looking for things that began with words like "Image," not "Resource" anything. Perhaps before reinstalling, you can right-click the icon in Visual Studio, select "Open With" and see if "Resource Editor" is an option.

Assuming that Resource Editor is not available or does not work, I would try the reinstall. When I did it, I had to completely uninstall and reinstall, just trying a Repair install did not fix the problem.

One thing I did slightly differently on the reinstall - the first time I installed it was from an ISO image that I think only had update 1 on it, the second time I installed I downloaded a fresh copy of the .ISO that had update 2 on it. Maybe that made a difference.
