Visual Studio 2019 安装程序无法启动

Question

I'm using Windows 10 ver. 1909. Installer hangs or does nothing. No feedback.

Answer 1

I had exactly this problem. Same version of Windows 10. I tried both vs_community.exe and vs_professional.exe. On a Microsoft Surface Pro 4. The installer launches, a brief unpacking screen appears, that vanishes, and you're left with the task manager showing the installer but no user interface. I tried numerous different suggestions from Googling as well as the Collect.exe tool. None of that helped. Someone had a similar problem that hinted that a display could cause the problem. My Surface had Duet installed, which allows you to use an iPad as a second monitor. Uninstalling that allowed Visual Studio to install normally. Apparently the Visual Studio installer is finicky about displays so if you have any unusual display drivers, or screen sharing utilities, they should be removed to allow installing. I suspect that the driver or utility could be put back after installation.

At first you need to download this tool Event Collect for visual studio , open your CMD as administrator,then run Collect.exe , after that you need to run your visual studio installer in the event of an error you will find and file named C:\Users{username}\AppData\Local\Temp\VSSetupEvents.txt that you can check to see the error messages.

For more details you can check documentation .

Answer 3

In my case, the issue was that I have downloaded and launched the installer to a user folder that contains non-English characters. Moving the installer to another folder fixed the issue. I´ve diagnosed the issue by looking into an installer log file in C:\Users<username>\AppData\Local\Temp\dd_vs_professional__143315035.1628536728_decompression_log.txt.

My case is very embarrassing for Microsoft. I downloaded Visual Studio Setup and started it right away from browser. It was opened and then immediately closed. Nothing I could read on the Internet about this problem was not helping. Then I did one very simple thing. Moved setup from original location: C:\Users(user name)\Downloads, to c:\Temp -> worked like a charm. The thing is that my user name contains international characters (plus containing a space). All in all 21. century, full unicode support everywhere, but not in windows. Really embarrassing.
