I am trying to update my Visual Studio 2015 + Cordova + TypeScript project to use TypeScript version to 1.6.0-beta. I am currently using 1.5.3.
1.6.0-beta
1.5.3
You can use in the visual studio project file that changes the path to the TypeScript compiler.
So move your C:\Users\XXX\AppData\Roaming\npm to C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft SDKs\TypeScript\1.6.0-beta\tsc.exe
C:\Users\XXX\AppData\Roaming\npm
C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft SDKs\TypeScript\1.6.0-beta\tsc.exe
