When I was installing SQL Server 2016 on my dev box, I saw a failure during setup stating that I needed to install KB2919355. This is a tricky fix because the solution is actually rather obscure. In order to install KB2919355, you have to install KB2919442 first! The libraries also say they are for Windows 8.1 to make it even more confusing.
