Is there a work around for the VSIX Installer if the FIPS encryption is enabled.

Well, decompiling the MD5CryptoServiceProvider constructor shows the following:
public MD5CryptoServiceProvider() {
if (CryptoConfig.AllowOnlyFipsAlgorithms)
throw new InvalidOperationException(Environment.GetResourceString("Cryptography_NonCompliantFIPSAlgorithm"));
// ...
}
So, basically, the .NET framework is explicitly checking for FIPS compliance and throwing an exception when it's enabled, which the VSIX installer doesn't handle.
I suggest opening a bug with Microsoft Connect (including the stack trace), since the installer should likely be able to handle this exception and continue with the installation regardless.
You might have luck working around this locally to enable an install by modifying the VSIX installer executable's configuration file to forcibly disable FIPS compliance.

So basically when I open my solution with nunit3 & specflow, selenium UI tests in VS 2017 (15.3.2.) I get the following exception and error on test explorer window:
Is there a way to fix this? There is a work around but its ridiculous... If I start VS 2017 without any project and then open the project from recent- its working OK.

The issue appears if you have Test Explorer on focus upon start up.
The temp solution is to click on another TAB (Solution explorer) before closing VisualStudio so the focus won't be on TestExplorer on startup.

The issue appears to be fixed (at least I can't any longer reproduce it) with VS2017 update 15.4.1
Has anyone ran into the issue below? Basically, I am trying to upgrade the Web forms for Marketers from 8.0-U3 to 8.0-U4(successful) to 8.1-Initial release (not successful).
The error was during the update installation process:
http://upgrade/sitecore/admin/UpdateInstallationWizard.aspx
It says:
The installation has encountered a critical error.
This Sitecore installation cannot be used for either testing or
production purposes until Sitecore support is contacted. Make sure to
download and include the file containing diagnostic information about
your Sitecore installation.

I was able to fixed the issue. I reinstalled the update package of WFFM 8.1. But prior to that, I copy and pasted the DLLs and configuration files of WFFM 8.1-Initial release to my instance before undergoing under run of update.
Edited: Root cause, forgot to update the Sitecore.Forms.config with the patch below:
<handler type="Sitecore.Form.Core.WffmActionHandler, Sitecore.Forms.Core" method="OnWffmActionEventFired" >
<param name="actionManager" ref="/sitecore/wffm/wffmActionExecutor" /> </handler>
In my case i had fixed by copying entire DLL from clean-sitecore installation folder, When more dig on it who is black sheep is below they are
Sitecore.Forms.Core.dll
Sitecore.Forms.Custom.dll
Sitecore.Forms.Mvc.dll
Above dll's version differed.
I am trying to figure out what might be wrong. Basically, I am not able to edit any user accounts. Once I click Edit in User Manager I get the attached exception.
Any advise would be much appreciated.
Sitecore version is 6.6.0 (rev 130214)

I replaced the whole of the shell folder as suggested and the issue disappeared. I assume it was either missing or corrupt file.
Please try to replace your bin folder with fresh Sitecore dll's.

Make sure that there is no development stage assembly in the GloballyAssemblyCache.
In my case, NUnit failed to load Npgsql.Tests.dll.
Npgsql.Tests.dll links to Npgsql.dll. However GAC has another variant of Npgsql.dll with same version.
If assembly has fully qualified reference name like Npgsql, Version=3.0.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=5d8b90d52f46fda7, .NET runtime tries to search assembly from GAC at first, and then search your local folder (Probes for the assembly). We can it check at msdn How the Runtime Locates Assemblies
My First data web service code is working fine on local machine. Followed Patricker answer here at stackoverflow Link To Code for WebService .Problem is when I deploy it on server I get error.
Am I missing any WebService DLL or dependency because I don't see anything in my deployable file created with VS2010 using Build Deployment Package for upload.
I have noticed onething in the error. Path is C:\Users\Chris\Documents\Visual Studio 2010... which is my local machine and the server is generated on the host server. Whats wrong?
