Make sure that you have at least one of the supported compilers as mentioned at https://www.mathworks.com/content/dam/mathworks/mathworks-dot-com/support/sysreq/files/SystemRequirements-Release2015a_SupportedCompilers.pdf installed

[Walter Roberson]

In particular note that in R2015a, none of the Visual Studio "Express" or "Community" editions were supported, only the VS Professional editions, and SDK 7.1, and various (commercial) Intel compilers.
