I am trying to install Visual Studio 2015 COmmunity Edition I am at ~98% of the installation, now the program tells me:
another installation is in progress, try it later...
I do not know how to solve this issue.
And I actually do not want to restart the computer because the installation already took me over 2 days.
I am open for all ideas.

This can occur because another Office installation or update was running in the background when you started the setup. To fix this problem, check for the Office icon in the system tray to see if the installation is running. If Office is installing or updating, you'll need to wait for the process to finish.
Press CTRL + ALT + DEL and open the Task Manager. Click More Details in the bottom-left corner. On the Processes tab, click to select Windows Installer under Background processes. Click the End Task button.
My problem was that I had launched the installer twice, by mistake.
So a quick fix was opening Task Manager > Processes and killing the two instances of msiexec.exe that were visible.
The next run was successful without issue.
