To use Nsight Tegra, Visual Studio Edition, you must have Visual Studio 2010 SP1, 2012, 2013, or 2015 Professional (or higher) Editions installed (including Visual C++), prior to running the CodeWorks for Android installer.

If your development PC is running Windows 8, it is necessary to manually install the Windows USB driver on your development PC.
