I have found out that putting the backslash at the end of the layout path beraks the stuff. We'll be done soon." progress bar finishes: Instead, the following pops up for half a second as the "Give us a minute. I have even tried simplifying it to just one workload like vs_Community.exe -lang en-US -layout f:\vs2017c\ -add īut this just doesn't work. Next time I have only individual workloads instead of listing all the individual components. I have noticed it is downloading what I don't need, terminated the process and deleted everything for a fresh start. What I have done was a bat file of the following contents: vs_Community.exe -layout f:\vs2017c -lang en-US -add Īs the result of running this command the installer has tried to download all the components (including those I did not select) in all the languages (I only need en-us). I thought I have succeede but I was wrong. Finally I have ran CCleaner (with full CCEnhancer custom to-clean list) to clean up everything (again! I have already done this before the first try) and tried again and now it is downloading. A couple of times I could notice something written in red appearing in the console for less than half a second. UPDATE: I have installed the certificate, restarted the computer and re-tried running the installer a number of times. What am I doing wrong? By the way, are there ISO files available perhaps? I have also tried /layout instead of -layout with no luck. All I get are 2 files: f:\vs2017c\vs_ and f:\vs2017c\certificates\vs_installer_12. I am trying to get a Visual Studio 2017 Community Edition offline distribution by executing vs_Community.exe -layout f:\vs2017c\ as offered in the documentation ( vs_Community.exe downloaded here, or by direct link) but this doesn't work.
