Answer 1

I was having this exact problem, thought it was a services thing. The installer would start if I ran it as soon as Windows booted; if I waited, it didn't.

Turns out it was RivaTunerStatistics server that was running for my gaming overlays. Closed it, and voila, working again. Tried multiple times to confirm.

I had a similar issue, my Visual Studio Professional 2017 installer was closing before the installation starts. I solve the issue by following these steps:

1 - Open the prompt(CMD) with administration rights

2 - Check if you have the "InstallCleanup.exe" file inside the folder "%programfiles(x86)%\Microsoft Visual Studio\Installer\resources\app\layout\". If the file is there then go to step 7

3 - Manually delete the "%programfiles(x86)%\Microsoft Visual Studio\Installer” folder

4 - Relaunch the newly downloaded visual studio installer

5 - Allow the first step to install the installer

6 - Once the installer comes up and you can see workload choices (.net desktop and the like), close it

7 - inside CMD navigate to the folder "%programfiles(x86)%\Microsoft Visual Studio\Installer\resources\app\layout\"

3 - run this command: "InstallCleanup.exe -full"

4 - that's it. Just run the installer again.

It worked for me.
