Conflicts of opening Report Builder in NAV 2013 R2 After installing NAV 2015

After having installed NAV 2015, which brings in the new report builder from SQL Server 2014 instead of Version 3 which was part of the NAV 2013 R2 installation, it is no longer possible to open the layout of a report in the NAV 2013 R2 Development Environment.
It throws the following error:

---------------------------
Microsoft Dynamics NAV Development Environment
---------------------------
An error occurred when opening the report designer. A supported version of Report Builder could not be found.
---------------------------
OK  
---------------------------
 
Solution:

Uninstall the SQL 2014 Report Builder and re-install the SQL 2012 Report Builder. It will work with both NAV versions.
