Visual Studio Installer Doesn't open

Anonymous

When I open the installer, it asks me to give permission for it to run. When I press yes, it does nothing.

The installers located in the download folder and when I check Task Manager it doesn't appear there.

Is there anything I can do to fix this as other executable files run.

(I also use Windows Defender as my antivirus.)

    The Visual Studio installer is a complex piece of software, unlike ordinary installers, it downloads components from many online sources, Community is just a consumer forum, due to the scope of your question (Visual Studio) can you please post this question to our sister forum on Microsoft Q&A (The Developer Forum) in the Visual Studio section (linked below)
