Answer 1

CSC is no longer used for compilation of C# 6+. The new standard compiler is Roslyn now.

In fact, csc itself tells you this:

This compiler is provided as part of the Microsoft (R) .NET Framework, but only supports language versions up to C# 5, which is no longer the latest version. For compilers that support newer versions of the C# programming language, see http://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?LinkID=533240

You need to download Roslyn (either using the link above and compiling it for yourself using MSBuild, or via NuGet at http://www.nuget.org/packages/Microsoft.CodeAnalysis.CSharp/) and use it to compile your programs from now on.

Answer 2

csc.exe compiler used by Visual Studio 2015 is located at c:\Program Files (x86)\MSBuild\14.0\bin\csc2.exe
