I'm unable to download the above files even after significant tech support with a live agent. It's not a firewall issue, and the files appear to be downloaded.

    Hi @Macs Burke

    Welcome to Microsoft Q&A! 

    Could you tell me how you encountered this situation? Does it occur when installing Visual Studio? 

    If the Microsoft.VisualCpp.Redist.14 is downloaded, please go to the default download cache folder (%programdata%\Microsoft\visualstudio\packages) > navigate to the Microsoft.VisualCpp.Redist.14.xxxx folder > find the application like VC_redist.x64.exe > try to manually run it. Then, go to Visual Studio Installer and repair the installation. 

    You can also individually download and install the latest Microsoft Visual C++ Redistributable from the page. Then, go to Visual Studio Installer and repair the installation. 

    Furthermore, you can use the Program Install and Uninstall troubleshooter tool to uninstall all the Visual C++ Redistributable items and retry the installation.

    If it doesn't work, please go to %temp% folder and share us some logs files like dd_setup_xxxx.log. 

    Sincerely,

    Anna

    My Visual Studio is not working after the update, to 17.11.3 I have tried multiple tasks even uninstalling and re-installing the Visual Studio but the issue is still occurring.

    Visual Studio Logs are attached to this mail.
