SQL server 2016 installation freeze - installation

Hope someone can help me here .
I have no further information other than that at a later stage in setup the whole process hangs showing install_confignonrc_cpu64
I am unable to cancel out of it even , the only way was to kill it .
Is there any solution for that ?

My problem was that the installer tries to download Microsoft R Open , if you have a slow connection you will see the installation freeze for a very long time without any progress bar updates or so .
I fixed the problem by deselecting all R components since i dont need them then the installation went smooth .

just had the same problem which is why I found this question.
Fixed the problem by closing the original media install menu window (where I'd selected "New SQL Server standalone" which is the first option).
The install window then carried on.

Just leave it "Stuck" - it is doing a Download in the background, I left the PC for a couple hours while doing some errands, and then..boom- All set.

I have faced same problem with you, the simple way that i have find is turn on Windows firewall then wait a minute after that it will auto complete setup success. Hope this work in your case .
Thanks,
Cuong.

Disable and stop the windows update service and then start the installation. After the installation is complete put the service back on.

SQL Install gets stuck on sqlrsconfigaction_install_confignonrc_cpu64 (SQL Server 2016 using standalone installer, also when installing on Azure VMs)
Resolution:
Stop the install (Taskman -> Kill Process)
Open regedit
Navigate to:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\WOW6432Node\Policies\Microsoft\Windows\
Add New Key Called: AppCompat
You should have this once added:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\WOW6432Node\Policies\Microsoft\Windows\AppCompat
Add New DWORD entries as stated below to the AppCompat key:
DWORD: DisableEngine Value = 1
DWORD: DisablePCA Value = 1
DWORD: SbEnable Value = 0
Check the following location as the above key you added should also be here:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Policies\Microsoft\Windows\
Restart the installation.

I closed everything and rebooted. Not sure if maybe having Visual Studio open or something else prevented it from installing, but it got stuck.

recover vscode settings, vscode wont start after force ending update

VS Code has been trying to update for a few days now. It opens the innoupdater, but the updater never works.
Today I force stopped the updater from task manager and now my VS Code is gone (The VS Code icon is gone). It's showing the below error every time I try starting it.
windows cannot access the specified path you may not have permission
The innoupdater is also not working anymore, even if I reinstall. I am not sure How I can get my setting back.
You can safely reinstall vscode. Settings preserved even after uninstall in %USERPROFILE%\.vscode.
Also, you can use vscode built-in sync services or extension

PgAdmin fatal error. The appllication server could not be contacted

A couple of days before I have installed on my PC with Windows 7 Professional new version of PgAdmin (version 4). It worked fine, but today it loads slowly and then information window appears with text: "PgAdmin fatal error. The appllication server could not be contacted.". I restarted windows, but it doesn't help. Is there any solution of this problem? Thanks.
I had the same issue. Try right clicking the PgAdmin icon and clicking "Run as administrator". Worked for me.
worked for me if I run PgAdmin as administrator.
Right click on the .exe file and run as administrator. It will work.
I tried all options mentioned in link Postgresql can't connect application server through PGAdmin4 .
But none of the options worked, then launching C:\Program Files (x86)\pgAdmin 4\v2\runtime\pgAdmin4.exe from command prompt worked fine.
i got this error using PgAdmin 4 (v4.3) and here is what fixed it for me
right lick on my server and disconnect server
reconnect by clicking expand arrow on the server.
seems my connection was stale
in C:\Users(your username)\AppData\Roaming
delete folder pgAdmin
(AppData - is hidden folder)
run pgadmin with administrator.
Worked Fine for me
Previously it was showing Fatal error
I had to reinstall it, as Steve suggested in comments. Then it started working again.
It's probably best to start with Ray Jowa's solution -- try right clicking the PgAdmin icon and clicking "Run as administrator".
This was odd, my PATH variable which had the python interpreter in it was somehow a factor, I do not completely understand though, right after I removed it everything worked, I will look further into it but so far I think that if you have python interpreter it might be the one causing the issue.
rename your C:\Users<your username>\AppData\Roaming\pgAdmin to .back and restart pgAdmin v4.6x

Error starting the service. The OracleMTSRecoveryService was not found

I am getting this error while installing oracle 11g enterprise edition on windows 7 professional 64 bit. I checked the registry as some people have mention but the correct thing is already there. If try starting the service from Services.msc it says the service wss not found also
I ran into this same issue and this solved it:
When you get the error pop-up, leave it opened, open regedit and modify the ImagePath in the following key to point to the proper location:
computer\hkey_local_machine\system\controlset001\service\OracleMTSRecoveryService
The proper location may be something like this:
C:\app\myaccount\product\11.2.0\dbhome_1\bin\omtsreco.exe
All credit to:

The oracle download was split into two parts.
If you tried to install with only one part it will show many bugs and after installation oracle won't work.
Download two parts of oracle from the official site and extract in same place. The files will merge automatically into the same folder.
Now install the oracle. If you already installed the oracle once. It should taken some path like below.
In my system it took "E:\app\INDP\product\11.2.0\dbhome_1..."
If you are installing second time installation will take path, "E:\app\INDP\product\11.2.0\dbhome_2..."
Now the above erorr will come because of registry.
So, now yo need to edit the registry value like below.
ctrl+R will bring the run window. Type regedit and press ok
Then Under Computer, select HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE -> SYSTEM ->ControlSet001-> Services -> OracleMTSRecoveryService.
Double click on ImagePath. It will prompt a window with old path or with wrong path under value data.
Now, you need to edit it with your curent path like below.
E:\app\INDP\product\11.2.0\dbhome_2\bin\omtsreco.exe OracleMTSRecoveryService
Now press "retry" button of the window, which shown that error. Now, it will work like charm.

Process is disabled in VS2010 attach to process dialog

I have a VS2010 running on a WTS machine (Windows2008).
I'm trying to attach the debugger into a process. The process is running a WPF client.
The process is presented in the attach to process dialog, but grayed out and the attach button is disabled.
I read through the discussions, and confirmed managed code is enabled for debugger, with no luck. Here are two screenshots representing the current situation (in the first image, the process I'm trying to debug is marked in blue - please note I'm running as admin):
snapshot goes here - but was removed by stack overflow...
After trying the automatic code type selection, I tried the manual way, with no luck. Here is the screenshot:
snapshot goes here - but was removed by stack overflow...
Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks,
Busi
Perhaps you are already attached to the process? Did start debugging before attaching to the process?
Found another cause/solution to this problem, select the 'Show processes from all users' and 'Show processes in all sessions' check boxes and I got two instances of my service, one greyed out (which was always visible) and another I could attach to. hth :).
I ran into the same issue with my windows service.
I could not attach to a running windows service that I built.
My solution has multiple projects with the windows service as the startup project.
I found out that my problem is caused by having the startup project is the same as the windows service.
To solve my problem, I just set a different project as the StartUp Project.
I'm not certain, but there may be a debugger already attached to the process, and that's why Visual Studio won't let you attach it. Are you certain that you're not running the application already in debug mode or do you have another VS instance running?
If you are trying to attach a web service or web app (w3wp.exe) then, try resetting the iis (iisreset). It worked for me.

How to enter a Visual Studio 2010 evaluation extension key after evaluation period expiry

I had downloaded and installed VS 2010 Ultimate evaluation for 30 days. It allows me to get a 60-day extension if I register. My register just ended.
2 days ago, I got the extension key by registering but did not enter it because I thought I should wait till the product evaluation period expires.
Now, when I open up VS 2010, it gives me a dialog box with only two buttons:
a) Learn more about upgrading. This takes me to the same page that allows me either to buy or generate an extension key.
b) Close. This closes VS 2010.
How do I enter in the extension key now?
In order to update the product key you need to be logged on with administrator privileges. Try logging on as an admin and the go to the control panel > uninstall/change a program > Enter the product key > click "upgrade."
Here is a link from MSDN on how to do it for VS 2008 trial editions. It is the same for VS 2010:
http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/cc442563(v=vs.90).aspx
I did the same exact thing and it looks like the only option I could find after tons of googling is redownloading and installing the latest version to use your new key with. Here is the page I found with links to the downloads:
http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/vstudio/bb984878.aspx
NOTE: I have not yet downloaded this and tried the key I received from the 60 day extension but will let you know if this works when I get a chance to DL it in the next couple days unless anyone else can confirm.
(Probably too late, but here's an idea that may help someone...)
Try setting your computer's date back to a point in time when your trial was valid (e.g. 1 month ago). I've just tried this on an expired 2010RC and it ran happily, allowing access to the Help>Register menu option.
Of course, attempting to register in this way may detect that you're running "in the past" and refuse (at which point, try setting the clock back and see if it'll let you retry) - but it's worth a try before going through the pain of reinstalling the whole thing from scratch.
Try "Help -> Register Product". It can be your answer
