Windows 10: Visual Studio Installer + Cleanup - The Confusion

I used the Visual Studio Installer v3.4.2246.31370 to install everything from all sections, including the Development of C++, the Development of Python, the Development of Code.js, the Runtime Files of C++, and so on. When I clicked "InstallCleanup.exe", it cleans up the Shortcuts, the MSI files, the Install Cache files, and so on. While I was looking into Visual Studio Installer, all of the ones from the Installed section are disappeared. While I was looking into Visual Studio Installer, all of the ones from the Available section are there. I did not push a button that says "Uninstall", and

Visual Studio (.NET Framework)

Do you still have the Visual Studio Installer or Visual Studio Manager still installed?

If you have it still installed and it opens up correctly, you could try removing all additional packages that are installed, and try reinstalling them again. It could have been a corruption issue relating to package extensions that you may have installed
into Visual Studio 2017 Community Edition. If that does not work, go to apps in settings, and select Visual Studio 2017 Community Edition and select repair. If that does not work, you could try going to TechNet, and asking there for help. It could be a
bug with the current version of the .NET Framework 48 or with the recent version of Visual Studio 2017 Community Edition.

If you can not find Visual Studio Installer or Visual Studio Manager, unfortunately in this situation the only thing I can think of is if you still have the installation file that you downloaded from the Visual Studio website. If you can't find that, then
I suggest that you download Visual Studio 2019 Community Edition, since the 2017 Community edition is not given for free anymore unless you have some sort of subscription. However, I suggest that you still check with TechNet before taking this step.

 

Installation of visual studio.

Hi Harshad

Follow the steps on this line to prepare your system and for installing Visual Studio

https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/visualstudio/i...

Please Note, choose the Community Edition, it is totally free and full Featured

You do not need to worry about Visual C++ Redistributables those have nothing to do with coding in C or C++ at all

When visual Studio finishes installing you will see a screen asking you how you would like to set up Visual Studio, choose C/C++ Programming and the initial Setup will do the rest for you to get the IDE ready for C/C++ Programming

Happy coding !

If you start uninstalling bits and pieces then some parts of the program, or older programs, may fail to work properly. Did you select all these so called extras or were they installed automatically. If the latter then you may need them?
