I cannot install Visual Studio community edition 2022.

Question

Hi everyone, I have a query. After installing MS Visual Studio Community Edition 2022 from the official website, I ran it as an administrator, and then this pop-up window appeared and nothing happened after that. I check my Local C drive in program files to see if there's a folder with the name of MS Visual Studio but also nothing over there. What should I do? Can someone help me with this query?

Hi @OMER ADIL,

Welcome to Microsoft Q&A forum.

Please try to reboot your machine, download a new bootstrapper file(setup file) and put it into a new clean folder. Run it as administrator, and check if this time it works.

If this doesn't work, please try to rename %Temp%(C:\Users\username\AppData\Local\Temp) folder(you may need to reboot the machine to rename the folder, if some applications are using the files in this folder) and reinstall VS again.

Besides, please make sure that Windows OS is updated and no update errors, also there’s no permission limitation, extension, antivirus or group policy which may block you from installing VS, on your machine.

Sincerely,

Tianyu
