As an update to the answer of @Ivan because I just had to do with this issue recently.
In my case I only had the option to change the Min Version from 10586 to 10240 but for the Target version I had no other choice than 10586. So solving this issue was not possible.
The solution was to install SDK Version 1506 (Version 10.0.26624.0) which can be found here https://developer.microsoft.com/de-de/windows/downloads/sdk-archive
After a restart of Visual Studio I was able to switch the Target version as well @Ivan mentioned and the XAML designer finally showed up. Heureka!
Thanks for the hint @Ivan.
