I have looked at some other questions on this, but nothing seemed to help. So i decided to ask myself, hope that is okay :)
Also im not a tech genius, so sorry if i might not be able to understand some of the explenations. I have been coding for 9 months, and i learned to code on Visual Studio. I now want to install it on my own PC, but i can't make it work after around 10+ installs.
I have a Windows 8 laptop
I have tried both the web installer and the ISO install, on both my C: drive and D: drive. My D: drive is currently empty at around 250gb, which makes it easier to see what got installed and what to remove etc.
I have tried clearing the %Temp% folder, deleting all the Visual Studio files i could find.
My VCRedist_x64 and X86 are not the same size as far as i could see.
I tried repairing the program, re-install, restart and repair/install etc
I also tried installing only the minimum required, so i unchecked everything else when i installed.
Here is my error message Error message
I appreciate any help you guys and girls can provide, thanks :)
Refer to the error message and the solution that you tried, you can have a look at this similar issue: Error 1722. There is a problem with this Windows Installer package, check the team explorer log and VSIXInstaller log or directly share the vslogs.zip folder to https://onedrive.live.com/ and share the link here.
If you can found the same “ViewDesigner” MSI in the MSIINV log, the resolution was to remove the “Studio 5000 View Designer” program from Programs and Features (Control Panel) or running this command from an admin prompt: msiexec /X {xxxxxxxxx}
If this same issue persists, you can try to use the VisualStudioUninstaller to completely remove the existing VS 2015, then reinstall it with the default installation. Before the next installation, make sure windows update is up-to-date, temporary disable any antivirus, then run the installer as administrator.
