When I try to install Visual Studio 2017 RC I got this error :
[1764:001d][2016-11-20T10:14:21] Package 'Microsoft.Ancm.IISExpress.Msi,version=1.0.1967,chip=x64' failed to repair. MSI: C:\ProgramData\Microsoft\VisualStudio\Packages\Microsoft.Ancm.IISExpress.Msi,version=1.0.1967,chip=x64\ancm_iis_express_x64_en.msi, Properties: REBOOT=ReallySuppress ARPSYSTEMCOMPONENT=1 ALLUSERS="1" MSIFASTINSTALL="7" REINSTALL=ALL REINSTALLMODE="cmuse" IGNOREDEPENDENCIES=ALL , Return code: 1316, Details: The specified account already exists.
Installation process gives me (Failed to setup) on 94% progress with above log error Can anyone help me solve this problem ?
The specified account already exists. Visual Studio 2017: Failed to install package. Return Code 1603 - Stack Overflow Error 1316. The specified account already exists. Visual Studio 2017: Failed to install package. Return Code 1603 Need to install Visual Studio for school, but run into this and one other error.
In case you are seeing the ‘The Specified account already exists’ error when attempting to install a legacy application, you might be able to work around the error by configuring the installer to run in compatibility mode.
Some Windows users are seeing ‘The Specified account already exists’ (Error 1316) when attempting to install or uninstall certain programs via InstallShield. This error is typically reported to occur with Microsoft Office products, with certain 3rd party AV suite and with utility programs such as Nero or Checksoft.
You will have to find the product name in the log file that is causing this error and uninstall that application and this error will go away. I had to uninstall MICROSOFT_VCPP2010SP1.
This happened to me as well and the reason is that Visual Studio 2017 setup cannot uninstall the existing IIS Express package. Try this:
Quit the VS 2017 installer setup and go to this location "C:\ProgramData\Microsoft\VisualStudio\Packages\Microsoft.Ancm.IISExpress.Msi,version=1.0.1967,chip=x64"
There must be an .msi file with name "ancm_iis_express_x64_en.msi". Run that msi and remove the component (there must be a remove option).
Once done restart the VS 2017 setup again and this time you get past issue with this component. If you encounter similar error, please read the error message, track the package from Packages folder and uninstall that.
Please note that uninstalling any package wont affect an existing package for VS 2015/2013.
Hope this helps.
