Cannot reinstall visual studio

Question

Hello, so two days ago I had an error message after updating VS and apparently couldn't repair it so I decided to reinstall it.

Now the visual studio installer crashes and shows these errors:

I uninstalled and reinstalled all .net frameworks/sdks and runtimes but it didn't change anything. I really don't know what to do, everything worked flawlessly before I decided to update 2 days ago..

I join the log files. Any help will be much appreciated!

Hi @Mdouille Mda ,

Would you like to do a clean uninstallation of VS?

1. Manually delete any leftover install and cache folder you previously installed to
   C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Visual Studio
   %programdata%\Microsoft\visualstudio\packages
   C:\Program Files\Microsoft Visual Studio
2. Delete the setup registry key, which was set when you first installed(Maybe there is only one key, please check one by one.):
   HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Policies\Microsoft\VisualStudio\Setup
   HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\VisualStudio\Setup
   HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\WOW6432Node\Microsoft\VisualStudio\Setup

After the clean uninstallation, please check for your Windows Updates and install all pending updates.
Besides, you can run the troubleshooter to check if there are any problems in your computer: open Windows Settings ( Windows + I ) > Go to Update & Security > Troubleshoot > Windows Update.

Then, reboot your computer and download the new bootstrapper file from https://visualstudio.microsoft.com/downloads/ to install VS.

Sincerely,
Anna
