Microsoft Fakes failed in VS2015 Enterprise - COR_PROFILER is missing

I am trying to use Microsoft Fakes in VS 2015 Enterprise. I was not even able to run any of the tests.

I do not have a settings file or settings file.

A simple test project has links to:

Microsoft.QualityTools.Testing.Fakes
Microsoft.VisualStudio.QualityTools.UnitTestFramework

One class from the following:

using System;
using Microsoft.VisualStudio.TestTools.UnitTesting;
using Microsoft.QualityTools.Testing.Fakes;
namespace UnitTestProjectfortemp1
{
    [TestClass]
    public class UnitTest1
    {
        [TestMethod]
        public void TestMethod1()
        {
            using (ShimsContext.Create()) { }
        }

        [TestMethod]
        public void TestMethod2()
        {

            using (ShimsContext.Create()) { Console.Write("test"); }
        }
    }
}

The error that occurs for both tests:

Test Name:  TestMethod1
Test FullName:  UnitTestProjectfortemp1.UnitTest1.TestMethod1
Test Source:    C:\UnitTestProject1\UnitTestProject1\UnitTest1.cs : line 21
Test Outcome:   Failed

I tried various solutions, such as Failed to run unit tests that use Microsoft Fakes - Exception in ShimsContext.Create () , but no luck.

EDIT: I tried to run this from the console, but didn't turn on the output. Here is the result, it does not work with VSTest

Edit 2: Based on zaitsman's comment below, I tried disabling the specific version for the Fakes link.

Before it was:

    <ItemGroup>
        <Reference Include="Microsoft.QualityTools.Testing.Fakes, Version=12.0.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=b03f5f7f11d50a3a, processorArchitecture=MSIL"/>
    <Reference Include="System" />
  </ItemGroup>

After:

    <ItemGroup>
      <Reference Include="Microsoft.QualityTools.Testing.Fakes, Version=12.0.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=b03f5f7f11d50a3a, processorArchitecture=MSIL">

          <SpecificVersion>False</SpecificVersion>
     </Reference>
     <Reference Include="System" />
   </ItemGroup>
