Visual Studio 2013 - Install/Repair/Uninstall not working

Hello,
I had a recent failure in my HDD where all my apps were installed (not the OS) and had to replace and re install a lot of apps. But VS 2013 has been given me a hard time. when I try to re install it it only gives me the option to Repair Uninstall or Modify.
I have tried all three with no avail. The errors I am getting are : Fatal Error during installation.
I have also tried to clean up reg keys and temp files.
Please help
KM

Hey Barry, 
I downloaded the ISO and mounted it - ran the repair than uninstall and I get the same failure. Here is a link to the logs.
Let me know if you know any other options?
I appreciate your help!

  • Visual Studio 2013 Community Azure Login Not Working with Two-factor Authentication

    Has anybody had any problems logging in to Azure to publish when using Visual Studio 2013 Community and with two-factor authentication turned on?
    I couldn't log on until I turned off two-factor authentication.
    Regards

    Hello John,
    Thanks for posting here!
    You can try and set a credential helper like
    git-credential-winstore in order to cache your credentials. See if that helps.
    Couple of questions here:
    1) Are you using a MSA account by any chance?
    2) When you turn on two-factor authentication, do you get any error message?
    3) Did you try with different browsers?
    Looking forward to your response!

  • Visual studio 2013 update 4 will not install

    I am currently running visual studio 2013 Version 3, and i recently just downloaded the update 4 file.  I've tried installing it multiple times but all it does is show the splash screen and then wink out.  Checked the task processes and its not
    running.  I've checked the event log, and nothing interesting in there either.  I copied the file to another machine and it ran fine, so i know the file is good.  I've also downloaded the DVD ISO version of the updater from MSDN, with the same
    results.  Am i missing something?  Is there a different way i can debug this to find out why it's not working for me?  Thanks for any help!

    Hi there.  I actually am entirely up to date on windows update, i show nothing needs to install there.  
    I am running F-secure, but when i go into services and disable all of the F-secure services, I still get the same problem.
    When i run the update file, i get 3 new files that occur in my temp folder.  Below is the contents of the log file that is created:

  • Can Visual Studio 2013 installed on Windows 7 cause Bug check in NTFS driver?

    Hello!

  • The Visual Studio 2013 setup wizard said "Setup failed" many times when I UNINSTALL it.

    I hope somebody can help me... Sorry for my bad English.
    I had Visual Studio 2013 installed about two years ago. But I don't need it now and I want to uninstall it. However, the setup wizard said "Setup failed" after I clicked "uninstall" for a while. And it said:
    Microsoft Visual Studio 2013
    Fatal error during installation.

    I have tried repair it, but it said:

    Fatal error during installation.
    After repair, I clicked "uninstall" and it tipped me the same error.
    Thanks very much.

    Hello Sakura Chino,
    The Visual Studio installation will leave some components on your OS for repair/uninstall. The problem seems related to this. If you can find the installer which you used to install Visual Studio 2013, then please use it to repair and uninstall. It
    will fix problems on your OS so please don't try to uninstall from control panel. 
    If you cannot find the source installer, please download the same version of Visual Studio 2013 ISO from here:
    https://www.visualstudio.com/en-us/downloads/download-visual-studio-vs.aspx
    Then verify it's hash value by refer to the following page:
    https://www.visualstudio.com/en-us/downloads/visual-studio-2013-iso-sha1-vs
    After that, you can use that installer to repair then uninstall.
    If you still meet any problem, please use the following tool to fix:
    https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/mats/program_install_and_uninstall
    It is for Visual Studio 2010 or previous versoin, but some customers fixed problems by using this tool. I think you can also have a try on it.
    Best regards,

    I recently converted my SharePoint 2010 project from Visual Studio 2010 to Visual Studio 2013. I have the Premium version with Update 1.
    I quickly noticed that 2013 has bugs. For instance I could get a build error out of nowhere while developing, stating that a method recently added to Class
    A used by Class B, does not exist. The only way to resolve is to restart Visual Studio. Sometimes a rebuild would do the trick too.
    I can live with such quirks as a developer. The big problem is that it does not build the latest version if you are using the "Publish to File System"
    to get a wsp for deployment on another server.
    I've had problems with incomplete builds since my first deploy with wsp built by Visual Studio 2013, but I was not able to pinpoint it with certainty until
    last night.
    I have two classes used by a timer job. In a new version they back up some files after using them. After upgrading with the new wsp, I restarted the timer
    job service on all servers and ran the job, but the files did not back up. So I went and added a log statement to the backup code of one class and did another clean/rebuild/publish to file system from Visual Studio. I upgraded using the new wsp and then restarted
    the timer job service on all servers. When I ran the timer job service, the class where I added the log statement backed up the files it should. The other class still did not. So I added a log statement to this class as well and deployed that. Then this class
    started to backup files too.
    So I conclude that Visual Studio 2013 is failing at its core in a very dangerous way leaving assemblies built in an unknown, incomplete limbo state.
    I am downgrading all projects to Visual Studio 2012.
    This post is mainly to share my experience with the community, but if someone at Microsoft wants to investigate the issue, here is a suggestion on how to reproduce:
    Have Visual Studio in Debug build.
    Make a change to a class in a SharePoint project.
    Deploy the change to a local SharePoint installation.
    Change to Release build.
    Use Publish to file system to get a wsp. Open this wsp, copy the assembly, reflect and investigate to see that code change is actually there.

    Hi,
    As this is a Visual Studio question, I suggest you post it to Visual Studio Forum, you will get more help and confirm answers from there.

  • Visual Studio 2013 Ultimate with Update 4 Installation Hangs on "Windows Software Development Kit" step

    Hi,
     I am attempting to install Visual Studio 2013 Ultimate with Update 4 on a Windows 2008 Server R2 machine that also has Visual Studio 2012 Ultimate already installed.
    Unfortunately, the installation always hangs on the  "Windows Software Development Kit" step. I have let it run overnight and the installation process never gets past this step. I always have to just kill the process, and uninstall.
    I have validated the checksum of the ISO, run the .exe as administrator, and also tried to install the software to both the C and D drive.
    I have also tried to run the installation with all of the optional components checked as well as with none of the optional components checked.
    In addition, I have uninstalled visual studio 2013 using the /uninstall /force command
    I have examined the log files produced at C:\Users\MYNAME\AppData\Local\Temp and I dont see anything obviously wrong.
    Here are the last few lines of the dd_vs_ultimate_20150109195533_225_Windows_SDK_Desktop.log file
    MSI (s) (DC:F0) [20:18:20:263]: Note: 1: 1402 2: UNKNOWN\Installer\Features\A2FE5D06C0E403C2836F952CE631F4A4 3: 2

    Does anyone have any ideas of why this is happening? Are there any specific log files I could provide to help pinpoint the problem?
    Thanks
    Thomas

    Hello Thomas,
    "I have validated the checksum of the ISO" Do you mean you have used this page
    http://www.visualstudio.com/en-us/downloads/visual-studio-2013-iso-sha1-vs.aspx# to verify your ISO?
    Please send your full logs to me by use  http://aka.ms/vscollect . After using it, you will find vslogs.cab from %temp% folder. Please upload the file to
    https://skydrive.live.com/ 
    and share the link here.
    Actually you can refer to the following page to troubleshoot Windows SDK issue:
    http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ee248512(v=vs.100).aspx
    The recommend way is to manually install Windows SDK itself and check the logs in detail.
    Best regards,
    Barry

  • Unit Testing with Microsoft Sharepoint Emulators and Fakes with Visual Studio 2013

    Hi All,
    I have created Test Project and now creating Test cases for Sharepoint. I found a link on MSDN which suggests using Fakes framework but it supports VS2012 and I am using Visual Studio 2013.
    So how can I use it with VS2013 or is there any other way with which I can implement the Test cases with VS2013.
    Please suggest.
    Thanks in advance.
    Himanshu Nigam

    Hi HimanshuNigam,
    According to your descrition, my understanding is that you want to use Fakes framework to create test case for SharePoint project in Visual Studio 2013.
    If you want to test using Fakes Framework, you can use the codeplex extension to achieve it. It supports Visual Studio 2013.
    Here is a detailed article for your reference:
    Better Unit Testing with Microsoft Fakes
    About how to include the Nuget package, you can use the package with the link below:
    NuGet Package Manager for Visual Studio 2013
    Installing NuGet
    If you still have question about this issue, I suggest you can create a post in Visual Studio, more experts will help you and you can get more detailed information from there:

  • SQL Server Express and Visual Studio 2013

    In February I installed Visual Studio 2013 Professional. Looking in the Control Panel at all my installed programs, I see that I have a bunch of SQL server-related programs loaded, from the 2013 install and also from installs of previous Visual Studio versions.
    I've never done a thing with SQL server express, and am completely clueless about using it. I've already wanted to take a crack at it but it always seemed too daunting, so I backed off. It seems, however, that over the years the integration of SQL Server Express
    with Visual Studio is getting more and more seamless. Here is a list of all the SQL Server-related programs on my computer, with the ones installed automatically from the Visual Studio 2013 install bolded so they'll stand out. What I'm wondering is if I have

  • Why Visual Studio 2013 express edition always show repair or uninstall when I open it??

    I don`t know why my Visual Studio 2013 express edition always show repair or uninstall when I open it??
    I install it yesterday and it worked fine, but today when I open it, its says repair or uninstall all the time.... Anyone know why?
    Hellpppp

    Hi,
    I think your VS may have been corrupted. I suggest you click "repair" to repair your VS.
    If it can't solve your issue, please use ISO file to reinstall it.
    If you used a web installer, please download the ISO file from the website.
    http://search.microsoft.com/en-in/DownloadResults.aspx?q=Visual+Studio+Express+2013
    Before you reinstall it,please use this tool
    http://support.microsoft.com/kb/841290 to verify hash of the ISO. Any discrepancy would indicate that the file was corrupted.
    The sha1 value of ISO could be found in "Install Instructions".
    If you have made sure your ISO file have no problem, please reinstall it.
    If you have any further question, please feel free to let me know.
    Regards.

  • Not able to properly install "Tools for Apache Cordova for Visual Studio 2013"

    Hi,
    I am using visual studio 2013 ultimate running on a 64-bit windows 7 home premium.
    When I tried to install the "Tools for Apache Cordova for Visual Studio 2013", the installation completed but showed the following error in the end. This is what the error says:
    "  Joyent Node.js
        Invalid command line argument. Consult the Windows Installer SDK for detailed command line help.  "
    I thought maybe windows phone SDK 8 is not installed on my pc.( as mentioned in the requirements here: https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-in/library/dn757054.aspx). I tried to install the SDK, by choosing modify from the control panel (as
    mentioned in the same link above), but it didn't show "Windows Phone SDK" on the list. And Microsoft says that you cannot install the SDK v8.0 on windows 7. Please help me with this.

    OK...
    1)  So, how do I write JavaScript code? There is only one option when I select JavaScript form the "New Project" window and that says "Blank App (Apache Cordova)". when I try to create one it shows all these errors:
    " We've detected issues with your system's environment configuration
       Apple iTunes - software is missing from your computer.
       WebSocket4Net - software is missing from you computer. You may also have to configure it after installation."
    2)  I don't have iTunes on my computer. So, Is there a way to do it without installing iTunes?
    3)  And I've already installed the "WebSocket4Net", using both the "vs2013_mda0.3" setup and manually. But nothing worked. So what to do about it.?

  • Could not install Visual Studio 2013 in Windows 7 via Boot Camp

    Hi there,
    For a intro to programming class, I was required to install Visual Studio Express for Windows Desktop on my machine. Because I use a MacBook Pro Retina 13 , I had to install a copy of Windows via Boot Camp. I decided to install a copy of Windows 7 as I had
