If you look in the IDE log file, which is in the %AppData%\Local\Xamarin-Studio-6.0\Logs directory and you see an error similar to:

System.DllNotFoundException: Unable to load DLL 'libglib-2.0-0.dll': The specified module could not be found.

Then you may be able to fix this by installing an older version of GTK#. Full steps to do this are:

1. Stop Xamarin Studio.
2. Uninstall GTK#.
3. Install an older version of GTK# such as GTK# 2.12.30

Xamarin Studio on Windows 10 requires a bit of modification since we do not ship it in our Windows installer anymore:

It is highly recommended to use Visual Studio on Windows as it is free with the Community Edition.
