I cannot start Visual Studio Professional 2017 after update, it only appears less then 1 second and disappear. I'll try to repair, uninstall and install fresh new one, but I get same problem. Maybe someone had same problem ? What kind solutions you made ?
Please first check the system requirement here:
https://www.visualstudio.com/en-us/productinfo/vs2017-system-requirements-vs
If your system requirement is satisfied, then remove all the old cache file like disk cleanup, %temp% files. Restart the system and try to install and run.
thanks

I have the problem that I cannot update or install Visual Studio anymore on my system.
Today I saw that a newer Visual Studio 2017 version was released and I tried to start the VS installer for the update process. The start for the installer was just spinning but nothing happened. After that I tried to start the installer separately from VS but it didn't work either.
So I continued to make an even bigger mistake by assuming my installed version is bad and to completely reinstall Visual Studio by uninstalling and then trying to start the normal installation process.
Unfortunately it didn't work.
After downloading the webinstaller, it downloads the installer packages it needs but the vs_installer.exe itself will never run successfully afterwards (also if started manually).
There is no error shown directly. It just does not start. The EventViewer is also not showing any errors I would say have a connection to the problem.
Any ideas? Thanks!
After a bit of communication with the Visual Studio team they pointed me to the only thing they know could cause this issue.
Some time ago I added an environment variable to my system named NODE_OPTIONS. It was necessary because the builds of our Angular applications are so big that we had to adjust the available memory size.
Removing the environment variable enabled me to start vs_installer.exe and to reinstall Visual Studio again.
It's a bit obscure and not many people will have this problem. But I hope Microsoft will fix it anyway.
P.S. The silent crash is caused by the usage of Electron for the Visual Studio installer. The person from Microsoft, who helped me to workaround the problem, told me that they are working on a fix.
I have been using Vs 2017 for several months on dev machine. This fine morning says setup incomplete. Am I missing something?
In this case you need to go to Control Panel => Programs and Features and choose Visual Studio and update it.
VS 2017 (15.6.6) was fine for me on Friday 6/1/18 on Windows 10, but same issue as OP today after a restart.
As suggested by the dialog and Retired Ninja, I ran the Visual Studio Installer (to 15.7.3 after updating VS Installer) and that fixed it.
Note that the 15.7.3 update was a 7.73 GB download. Your download size may vary.
This has happened to me for the last 3 upgrades in Visual Studio Enterprise 2017 (now again on upgrade to 15.9.21).
The fastest fix (and I'm not sure why) is simple and doesn't bomb your settings or take for ever.
In the Visual Studio Installer, click on Modify.
Click "Modify" on the bottom right corner.
Yes it says "Total space required 0 KB".
Yes you didn't really change anything.
It will then act like it is downloading something. (not sure what)
It will then act like it is installing something. (again, not sure what)
Open Visual Studio 2017 and it works.
Hope this helps.
If you have an offline installation like me and can't simply re-run the Visual Studio Installer you can edit devenv.isolation.ini and change the last line to read SetupFinished=true. It will detect your trickery and complain, but at least it will launch again.
Edit: I ended up getting the Visual Studio Installer to fix the issue after choosing the "Download then Install" option. Maybe I was too impatient when I initially stopped the update? My above answer is useful when you need to get work done that isn't affected by the broken features, but you will likely encounter problems later on.
just had the same problem (without any reason with) vs 2019 prof, after googling and reading on that topic, just went to vsix, looked for some individual component to install/uninstall, randomly picked cloud explorer, uninstalled it and some dependent components and VS 2019 prof started normally
decided to leave this here. may be it helps somebody
Solved: I did following steps, run the visual studio and it works for me.
In my case visual studio was working fine , I just restarted the PC, this popup was keep coming when I try to open visual studio.(in my case I was using VS 2019)
Go to this path "C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Visual Studio\2019\Enterprise\Common7\IDE"
Open devenv.isolation.ini, set SetupFinished=true and save.
Now open visual studio.
Cheers!
In my case did following steps:
Clear temp files (you can %temp% in run command and Shift+Delete files)
Restart your computer
Open visual studio it will work properly.
Update: Faced problem again after couple of days, This time I go to C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Visual Studio\Installer.
Click on retry.
Select one more feature which I had already installed on my Visual Studio
Click on modified and after installation it worked again.
This happened to me after I canceled a plugin update.
I solved by going to this site that has the latest update of Visual Studio.
https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/visualstudio/releasenotes/vs2017-relnotes
I downloaded and upgraded it.
After that, Visual Studio worked.
If your VS is already upgraded, there´s an option to "repair" on the installer.
For this problem, goto uninstall screen in control panel right-click visual studio and select option change, Installer page will open now, In that window without changing anything click modify. it will solve the problem. I'm using VS Professional 2017
I got the same error today morning. This is what I did:
I ran the visual studio installer then I clicked on Modify.
The installer was showing 0KB Required. I continued and then it downloaded and installed. (Not sure what).
After that installation, it was able to launch.
I hope it works for you as well.
I was using Vs 2019 professional 16.6 and happened to me this issue one morning. I modified the installation by adding Azure Development tools even though I was not using it. This fixed the issue.
I just updated to 15.9.24 and I got this yet again, as I have my resolution above, and Visual Studio 2019 seems to be a lot better with avoid this issue. The installer for 2019 you do have to change something and do the modification, 2017 you don't have to change anything.
I reported this issue through Developer Community:
Setup not complete since 15.9.21
I don't know why but sometimes its buggy
it's up to date but after launch visual studio this error prompted !
you have to click modify in vs installer and just modify it.
its not going to download anything.
after a moment launch vs and enjoy :)
For VS2022, WIN11:
Control Panel > Programs > Programs and Features > Microsoft Visual Studio Installer
Then, click on Change and resume the previous process.
I'm trynig to install MVS 2017 because my previous version (2015) broke. By broke I mean it was not able to connect to the internet to check my version or something and it did not let me in. Tried googling it, found nothing.
So here I am, trying to intall MVS 2017. So far nothing but failure is being seen.
My first attempt at installing it kind of worked, it even successfuly loaded up, but had no extensions whatsoever (only Visual C++) and was unable to create any projects, the project window just kept reappearing after I finished configuring my project's settings. While installing it for the first time by the way, there were a couple of windows that popped up, they basically couldn't find the installer for Microsoft Visual C++ 2017 and some "Kits" thing.. It was something along the lines of "The feature you are trying to use is on a network resource that is unavailable. Try selecting the installer from some other directory", but I could find it and clicked "Cancel".
After that I tried repairing MVS with the installer. Same two windows appeared, they still can not find their installers apparently, I clicked "Cancel" like in my first installation attempt and the MVS kept repairing itself for about an hour. Then, in my installation window it said "A restart is required. If needed, any remaining setup will resume automatically after the restart".
So I went ahead and restarted my PC and tried launching MVS. Absolutely nothing changed, there are no extensions that I checked when installing.
I tried googling my error messages and other problems and I ended up doing this:
Cleared my C:\ProgramData\Package Cache folder
Installed Microsoft Visual C++ 2017 manually
Changed the installation directory
Nedless to say, on my previous version of MVS I had quite a lot of extensions installed. Including the lastest version of QT, support for Unity, some other C# stuff and a buch of different extensions for C++ development.
Can somebody please give me a website where I can post my logs to or help a little with my situation.
Thank you.

I’m writing a Sketchup ruby plugin that calls an external c++ application built using visual studios 2012 version 11.0.51106.01. Another machine that tried using the plugin gets an error about MSVCP110.dll being missing. They’ve tried installing the vcredist and it didn’t fix the problem. does anyone know how to fix this?
You will need to install the correct Redistributable Package from Microsoft. Please note that you cannot just take any of those, you need to pick the one that goes with your very specific version of Visual Studio. The link for example is for VS 2012 SP1. If you have another version, you need another vcredist package.
Answer of user nvoigt seems to be correct (+1 for that). As an alternative to install Redist Package you can deploy "manually" MSVCP110.dll with your application. Easiest way is to put the dll where your exe is. But as the other people say: you need the correct version of redist pack which fits your system configuration.
This article https://helpx.adobe.com/creative-cloud/kb/missing-msvcp110dll.html
pointed me in the right direction. The file wasn't, however, in the directory they said it would be. So I did a search of hard drive for vcredist_x64.exe. It was buried deep in a directory for VisualStudio 12. When I reinstalled it the dll error disappeared and photoshop is running again.
I think I created the problem when I installed a newer version of Visual Studio.
I installed Windows Phone Developer Tools.
I can create the projects with Blend 4 or VS Express Edition.
I want to use the templates in Visual Studio 2010 Pro.
I can see the Windows Phone Game Template under XNA Studio but the other main templates are missing.
I can see them at this directory:
C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Visual Studio 10.0\Common7\IDE\ItemTemplates\CSharp\Silverlight for Windows Phone\1033
I reinstalled the Dev Tools many times but my VS2010 Pro can't load the templates!
Any solution?
Thanks,
Regards.
The directory your looking at is for individual files the directory that you need to be looking for if you want to create new WP7 projects is:
C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Visual Studio 10.0\Common7\IDE\ProjectTemplates\CSharp\Silverlight for Windows Phone\1033
Did you try to reset the settings of VS with the command
devene.exe /InstallVSTemplates
or maybe
devene.exe /InstallVSTemplates /ResetSettings ?
http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms241279.aspx
If that file exists, you can access the templates by first selecting language, and then looking under the language for the template. For instance, expand "Vishual C#", and you will see "Silverlight for Windows Phone as one of the template sets.
You could have an earlier version of the phone tools already installed causing the template install to silently fail. Look for it on Add/Remove programs.
Otherwise it could be a corrupted VS install. Try to repair or uninstall/reinstall
Ideally, the developer setup should automatically install it for you. In case you are having issues, check this post... and let us know if it helped.

Three thoughts come to mind. Well, besides the obvious thought, how frustrating it must be.
A. Sometimes installs get messed up from various ctp installs/uninstalls in untested sequences. Feel free to try this that I wrote during WP7 CTP to try and help people resolve install issues. It helped some people deal with install issues. This may be a little overcatious, but doesn't take much longer. When it came time to install RTM I was able to do a single uninstall WPDT and install the tools, no hassles since.
Known Good March -> April CTP Un/Install Sequence
B. Alternatively, if something is super messed up, try a clean install of Win7 on a spare hard disk. At least if it works you're more informed and can decide whether a clean OS or more tinkering is a better use of your time.
C. Do a BeyondCompare (or other directory comparison) to a friends install or an install on another PC, find what's different, copy the appropriate files over.
it was a very long time ago ... but I got similar problem with Mango templates, under VS10 French version. Here the trick :
