All of these tools are shipped as part of Visual Studio but are not installed in the same way as you would install them manually. They are all located in the Visual Studio install directory and are used by some of the new features such as the Task Runner Explorer and the new ASP.NET 5 project system. 

Here’s a quick rundown of some of the changes:

• Added validation styles for file inputs
• Improved printing of dark tables
• Suppressed that text-hide deprecation notice by default
• Fixed an issue where Collapse wasn’t working in Internet Explorer
• Cleaned up some JS globals and improve coverage
• Bumped dependencies, namely Jekyll
• Fixed docs issue with incorrect name for our monospace font utility 

Benefits of a package manager

• Check the version of any program or package
• Update the Existing Version you already installed
• Download and install in just one Command
• Automates the process of installing, upgrading, configuring, and removing computer programs
• Upgrade all the program at once
• Export list of program that you've installed and install them back whenever you required 

Account

A bank account allows us to send and receive money and has its unique number. Anytime we tell about an account in a bank, an account is always a bank account. In the other hand, an account in an information system is used to authorize a user. We have the term "account" meaning something absolutely different in two different domains. Domain has an impact on what we imagine when someone says a concrete term. So we have to learn and specify domain terms first.

Price

Let's speak about e-shop domain. What is a price? For us, as customers, it is how much we pay. A manager can think about price as an amount that his company pays to the supplier. For an accountant, a price is just a number. And e-shop programmer is now confused.

Language is crucial because customers and experts are telling their stories in their language. But it is also natural language, inaccurate, ambiguous, context-aware. And as we can see, language can be tricky even within one domain. 

These are the customer-reported issues addressed in 15.9.7:

• Update of Microsoft.VCLibs.140.00.UWPDestkop framework packages for C++ UWP DesktopBridge applications adding support for ARM64.
• Corrected incorrect version of VCToolsRedistVersion in Microsoft.VCToolsVersion.default.props.
• Corrected unsigned embedded dll for VC Redist installers.
• SSDT/Web Tools: We fixed an issue where SQL LocalDB was not installed on Polish, Turkish, and Czech locales.
• SSDT: We fixed an issue affecting SQL Server Analysis Services (Method not found exception when clicking on UI).
• SSDT: We fixed an accessibility issue which was causing the contents of a table not to be visible in the result window when using High-Contrast mode.
