Can't install VS 2015 Update 3

Go to control panel->program and features
select the Microsoft Visual Studio 2015 Professional with Updates
entry and select Modify
. Now the Visual Studio 2015 installer shows up and here you should see the Update 3.

So I tried to install VS 2015 Update 3. BTW, I have the professional edition and I keep receiving this screen:
Now, of course, Update 2 is already installed but it will not recognize this.
What do I need to do?

Binsoi over 7 years@magicandre1981 i tried it, there is no Modify option on Change. it brought me Visual studio setup. did not see anything. So, i uninstalled the VS 2015 Express. and tried to install it. but it lead me to an Error that i should have an existing VS 2015 Family. i cancelled it and installed a different edition. Visual Studio 2015 Community Edition and everything is OK now. Thanks BTW
