I tried to install Visual Studio Community 2015 on a fresh copy of windows 10, after having to reinstall it because of boot loop.
But i got a very strange error during the installation that i could not debug.
here's error message from the installer:

and also error log

i tried several solutions on the web but nothing changed.
Any help?
TL;DR:
VS installation tries to open nonexistent files?
After parsing multiple error logs, one error was persistent across them which was caused by "custom culture", so i went to my region settings and changed format from English(Europe) to English(United Kingdom) and after that i got less errors.
I also had to do some registry cleaning because installation tried to use bundle packages that were not present on my PC. I wish this installer would try to reinstall them instead of just giving up.

Haven't found anything online as most threads are focused of libcurl rather than libcmcurl.
For some reason my Cmake stopped working in Windows 10. I have tried uninstalling it and reinstalling, however even basic commands like cmake --version return the following error message:
cmake.exe - System Error
The code execution cannot procees because libcmcurl.dll was not found.
Reinstalling the program may fix the problem.
I tried running cmake --version when cmake was uninstalled and got the same error message.
Not sure what the source of the error was since even google refuses to show results for this file (defaults to libcurl.dll), however I think I solved the issue by repairing the Visual Studio 2019 install.
Open Visual Studio Installer

Worked after that.
I've been trying to get Visual Studio and the Windows 10 SDK to work for over a week now. First I couldn't install Visual Studio. That problem was resolved by uninstalling EVERYTHING vaguely related to VS2015, thanks to manually going through everything, but also the Visual Studio "TotalUninstaller".
Plot twist: Now that I've managed to get VS2015 installed and running, I can't get the SDK to install. I've selected it with the installation process, tried to modify VS after, tried to install it with the Standalone installer, but none of it works. Every time, the installer doesn't notice anything wrong, all the tools appear in the start menu, a new "Program Files (x86)/WindowsKits/10.0" folder appears, with all the correct files, but VS can't open any UWP projects, can't create new any, and the SDK doesn't appear in the Extensions list.
When I uninstalled everything, there was only one thing I couldn't get rid of: "Windows 10 for Mobile Image - 10.0.10240.0". It just opens, runs for a second, and closes, achieving nothing in the process. As I couldn't get rid of this, I manually deleted any "Windows Kits" related folder in Program Files, Program Files (x86), ProgramData, and anything in the AppData folder. But this piece of fluffy garbage didn't leave my installed programs list. Could this have something to do with not being able to install the Windows 10 SDK correctly?
I looked in the install logs, and this is the only error I saw:
[371C:398C][2016-08-08T21:13:35]i301: Applying execute package: {7a68448b-9cf2-4049-bd73-5875f1aa7ba2}, action: Install, path: C:\ProgramData\Package Cache\{7a68448b-9cf2-4049-bd73-5875f1aa7ba2}\vsupdate_KB3022398.exe, arguments: '"C:\ProgramData\Package Cache\{7a68448b-9cf2-4049-bd73-5875f1aa7ba2}\vsupdate_KB3022398.exe" -quiet -burn.related.patch -burn.ignoredependencies={248fcd1e-5ee1-421d-893f-ec0a94dd7b01} -burn.ancestors={248fcd1e-5ee1-421d-893f-ec0a94dd7b01}'

It appears in every log when I try to install vs2015 with the right option ticked, or when I use the standalone installer. I've looked in C:\ProgramData\Package Cache and there is no {7a68448b-9cf2-4049-bd73-5875f1aa7ba2} folder, and none of the other folders contain "vsupdate_KB3022398.exe". It looks like this is the root of the problem.
EDIT: I've created the folder that was missing and added "vsupdate_KB3022398.exe" to it (found it online, hosted on a Microsoft server), and there are no more errors left. However, the problem still isn't fixed. The SDK simply refuses to show up. I think I'm going to have to do a clean install.
I had the issue of Windows 10 SDK 14393 failing to install on Windows 7 OS. This problem occurred when installing as part of Visual Studio 2015 and also running the Standalone Installer for the Windows 10 SDK 14393. According to the logs, the Windows Desktop Extension SDK failed to install.
As a work-around I installed Windows 10 SDK 10586 (Installed successfully)
Then I installed Windows 10 SDK 14393 (Installed successfully)
Both versions of the Windows 10 SDK appear as choices under Target Platform Version in Visual Studio 2015 for me.
Apparently the Windows 10 SDK 14393 installer is missing something which it requires to run successfully on Windows 7. (Something that must be present in the previous version)
Sorry for the difficulty. There are 2 known issues that are causing 'Fatal Error' in the Windows SDK install.
See the Windows SDK Tools Issues Forum.
You probably have (had) a pre-release of the SDK and one of the contracts installed is causing MDMerge to fail during setup. Uninstalling the prerelease version of the SDK should avoid this issue.
Thanks,
kevin
I had the MDMerge problem, after uninstalling all previous Windows 10 SDK toolkits, still couldn't install. Fixed it by moving the contents of: "C:\Program Files (x86)\Windows Kits\10", ran the installer again and it installed fine.
This is what I did and it kind of worked for me. Remove everything in the linker ( PROJECT -> LINKER -> Input -> Additional Dependencies, as can be seen in this screenshot
I am trying to install the Visual Studio 2015 Update 3, but I am receiving an error each time. I have tried both the web installer and the ISO, and I have also tried going into Control Panel/Programs and modifying the 2015 install. All of these result in the same error: "Setup Engine - The parameter is incorrect". I've read about some of the other issues with the installer, but I'm hoping somebody else might have seen this one or something similar. The logs always have the following error in them:
[1B10:1DA0][2016-07-18T11:39:28]e000: Error 0x80070057: Failed to convert version: to DWORD64 for ProductCode: {284FA9A0-CEDD-81D3-5A19-5858E95FD0C4}

I have even tried to download the full installer for VS2015, but all installers seem to run through the same error. Any ideas on how I might repair this particular component so the installs will succeed?
Additional information, this is happening on a VM of Windows 10 running in Parallels 11.

The reply from Heath[MSFT]:
The logs confirm that some of your Windows Installer product
registration is corrupt. For the first issue, open a command prompt
(preferably elevated to avoid multiple UAC prompts later) and run the
following:
start /wait msiexec /fomus {284FA9A0-CEDD-81D3-5A19-5858E95FD0C4} REINSTALL=ALL
That should get
you past the first problem. If it does not, manually remove the
product like so and re-install it from the package cache:
start /wait msiexec /x {284FA9A0-CEDD-81D3-5A19-5858E95FD0C4} IGNOREDEPENDENCIES=ALL
start /wait msiexec /i "C:\ProgramData\Package Cache\{A79F6653-6AF1-4AF2-BC15-F5D6C05E1E6A}v2.0.40326.0\packages\sptoolsDependencies\enu\WorkflowManagerTools_x64.msi" ADDLOCAL=ALL NOVSUI=1
(change the above file
WorkflowManagerTools_x64.msi according to your log file record) After
this, installing VS Update 3 should work.
I had a very similar problem which at its root exhibited the same issue identified above in the Visual Studio 2015 Update 3 setup error (I couldn't install SSMS 17.1 which uses the Visual Studio 2015 Isolated Shell). I tried the solution above which unfortunately did not work for me. I did some more digging through the vs_isoshell.exe log file and found lines similar to those below.
[6BE0:36E0][2017-07-13T13:05:36]i000: Error 0x80070057: Failed to convert version: to DWORD64 for ProductCode: {9A7E3828-17FB-3E0C-9B28-48493E01937A}
The ProductCode refers to the "Microsoft Visual C++ 15 x86 Debug Runtime - 14.10.24269".
A perusal of my installed programs showed I did not have this installed, and I was unable to install it again due to a later version being present (it turns out it was upgraded, or removed, when I installed Visual Studio 2017).
I did some more searching and came across this page which had steps I adapted to my situation. I performed the same registry profiling of the installer with Process Monitor and the same key was missing. I added a key called DisplayVersion (string - REG_SZ) to the path below with a value of 14.10.24629 and that worked.
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Installer\UserData\S-1-5-18\Products\8283E7A9BF71C0E3B9828494E31039A7\InstallProperties]
Adding the key/value pair allowed the installation of the VS 2015 Update 3 Isolated Shell to finish successfully which in turn allowed the SSMS 17.1 installation to complete successfully.
I have vs 2015 upgrade 1 installed and I try to install Xamrin from the setup, but when I try to install it, at the end receive this error message:
C#/.Net Xamarin
The installer has encountered an unexpected error installing this package. This may indicate a problem with package. The error code is 2711.
how can I solve this?
I had the same error. The error is due to old Xamarin installer files in the cache.
C#/.Net Xamarin The installer has encountered an unexpected error installing this package. This may indicate a problem with package. The error code is 2711.
I did the following steps to fix it:
Note: a folder could be hidden, so enable show hidden items in the windows explorer.
Delete any Xamarin related folders from
"C:\ProgramData\Microsoft\VisualStudioSecondaryInstaller\14.0\installers" folder.
For example:
C:\ProgramData\Microsoft\VisualStudioSecondaryInstaller\14.0\installers\XamarinVS
C:\ProgramData\Microsoft\VisualStudioSecondaryInstaller\14.0\installers\XamarinVSV1
If the first step doesn't help then try to do the following below.
Delete all Xamarin related folders or files from windows temprorary folders TMP and TEMP.
You could find the temprorary folders in the Windows/Control Panel/ System/Advanced/Enviroment variables
I found that solution in comments section here:

You can try a manual install by downloading and installing the following:
http://download.xamarin.com/XamarinforVisualStudio/Windows/Xamarin.VisualStudio_4.0.1.147.msi
Every time I try to install (5 attempts) I get:
Error 2753. the File "agent.exe.6ED28686_7b19_420c_b255_5b6c1bd2c705" is not marked for installation
I've tried uninstalling, deleting the install folder after installing, clearing out temp files, restarting the machine and making sure I run the setup as administrator but I get this every time. I've even followed some advice about putting the installer files in c:\cr4vs2010 but to no avail.
The customer I'm developing for has Crystal skills so no other reporting engine will do.
EDIT
Found out about the FLEXnet transformer that fixes the above error. However, on completion of the install I get an error "The operation could not be completed" in a dialog box headed "Visual Studio".
I've fixed it I think. I now have Crystal Templates.
To fix.
Get the Flexera tool at
http://kb.flexerasoftware.com/selfservice/microsites/search.do?cmd=displayKC&docType=kc&externalId=Q207355&sliceId=
Run the tool as instructed and install the two msi's using it. I did the VS install first, then the 64-bit runtime.
After getting the "The operation could not be completed" error and installing both msi's, open up the Visual Studio Command prompt, ensuring you elect to Run as Administrator.
execute the command line devenv /installvstemplates. This takes a few minutes.
That fixed it for me.
