How to install Visual Studio Build Tools 2010 on Visual Studio 2015 Community?

I have a project created on Visual Studio 2010. When I try to run the project on Visual Studio 2015 Community edition I get the error below,

Severity Code Description Project File Line Error MSB8020 The build tools for Visual Studio 2010 (Platform Toolset = ‘v100’) cannot be found. To build using the v100 build tools, please install Visual Studio 2010 build tools. Alternatively, you may upgrade to the current Visual Studio tools by selecting the Project menu or right-click the solution, and then selecting “Retarget solution”. graphics C:\Program Files (x86)\MSBuild\Microsoft.Cpp\v4.0\V140\Microsoft.Cpp.Platform.targets 55

And when I tried to build it with Visual Studio 2015 Build Tools I encountered about 1500+ errors.

Is there any way to make the project work?
