I downloaded the ISO file of Microsoft Visual Studio 2013 Ultimate on the Microsoft MSDN website. I could install it on my home PC running Windows 8.1 without problems. However when I try to install it on my office PC running Windows 7 SP1, I get an error message. I even tried to install the "web installer" version, I always get the following error message:
In our case installing Sp1 for Windows 7 helped.
I was having the same problem (and it was killing me!). I solved it going to Control Panel > Programs > Programs and Features > Turn off windows features, then I Disabled Microsoft Framework 3.5 and then It worked! Of course, when you finished the installation, you should turn it on as it was before.
Hope this helps!
Bst Regards!
You may want to double check and ensure your video driver(s) are up to date, as there have been reports of the installer and the IDE crashing on startup, that are due to issues related to WPF's use of hardware acceleration.
I've seen a few issues resolved by disabling hardware acceleration via the registry key mentioned in the MSDN forum post : http://social.msdn.microsoft.com/Forums/vstudio/en-US/ee8e5918-877f-4399-9658-64e817d6ea1b/visual-studio-2013-crashes-on-setup?forum=vssetup.
Sincerely,
Having same problem. From the command line run the installer with /Full /Q. This will install it without the UI. A less than optimal solution if you want to change the default locations, but sometimes you just have to get it done.
Another solution to go through the installer with UI is to disable any hardware acceleration (and reenable it afterwards)
(windows 7) Go to Display, Screen Resolution, Advanced Settings, TroubleShoot, Change Settings
Set the slider for Hardware Acceleration to none, and accept.
The visual studio setup ui should be fine now.
For me, the problem was the stupid AMD 'Raptr' utility that installs with the AMD driver. Literally having this running was crashing the Visual studio installer:

Seems utterly ridiculous, but as soon as I shut Raptr down, the installer worked fine.
Nothing like 2 days of fighting with the installer to figure this out.
Sigh.
I had issues installing VS2013 the log referred to framework 4.5 problems.
I attempted to fix this a number of times and then gave up.
I then went to Microsoft website 4.5.1 framework download and now its installed.
Hope that helps

The web installer keeps crashing for me. The event log reported that the crash occurred in my graphics drivers (Intel HD Graphics). I am unable to update my graphics drivers, so that forced me to seek other means.
What solved it for me, was downloading the full ISO file for Visual Studio 2013, and installing using that. It seems it is either a separate build, or it doesn't touch the same execution-paths as the web installer.
Mine was faulting ltc_game32-96675.dll which is from the AMD Raptor overlay. Unloading that allowed me to install without crashing.

Creating an exe file still works and the created exe file still works fine.
Any testimony of a working office 365 - visual studio 6 combination is helpful as it allows me to look for other (indirect) causes of the problem.
I don't have enough points to comment, so...
I'm a long time VB6 user and it has always been my experience that installing any version of Office from MS will usually cause severe problems with Visual Studio 6. This goes a long way back and I believe it is due to the thousands of changes that Office makes to the registry.
I have had some success fixing this problem in the past by:
Uninstall Office - reboot
Uninstall VS6 - reboot
Do a full registry clean (repeated runs with CCleaner or similar until there are no more issues detected)
Install Office - reboot
Install VS6 last
Cleaning the registry is the most important part. Office leaves behind a huge number of obsolete registry entries when uninstalled. Even though a full clean will catch a lot of them, it won't catch anywhere near all of them, so these orphan entries can still cause problems.
With at least with one version of Office, this process still didn't help. I was never able to use VS6 without problems again until I did a full OS reinstall without Office. Another version caused the VB6 IDE to crash immediately when opened, rendering it useless.
My ultimate solution was to ditch MS Office for OpenOffice. Since then, I've never had any problems with VS6 at all.
So the short of it is that MS Office and VS6 are not compatible, especially if VS6 is installed first.
(On a couple of occasions, I took snapshots of the registry before and after installing Office. One version (2007 I think) made over 12,000 changes to the registry. A later version (possibly 2012) made over 16,000 changes.)
I am facing this issue for last few days. My Visual studio 2015 crashes abruptly.
On checking the application event log, i found that for each crash, following log is entered in it.
Faulting application name: devenv.exe, version: 14.0.24720.0, time stamp: 0x564ea97e

I tried to find about this MSWB7.dll. So far, I have only found out that it is a part of windows system and used as word breaker for the system.
First result on google for "MSWB7.dll" is https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/gg509108.aspx
My system has Windows 10 with Office 2016. I have all the updates installed for Windows, VS, Office etc.
I am unable to find any solution for this. Had lost quite many hours of work due to it too.
Please Help.
Thanks In Advance...
Uninstall or disable the "Spell Checker" extension, if you have it installed, as it may be responsible.
Doing some Googling I see people are encountering near identical error logs with this extension in VS 2010 and later. It appears this popular extension has become unstable in newer versions of Visual Studio, see Q&A section here:
https://visualstudiogallery.msdn.microsoft.com/7c8341f1-ebac-40c8-92c2-476db8d523ce/view/Reviews
If it's not that extension try disabling other extensions as it appears this kind of crash is often indicative of an extension that becomes incompatible with the newer versions of the IDE.
Visual Studio dies/crashes after resuming from lock Win-L with this error screen. This seems to happen only when docked to dual monitor.

Upgrade display drivers. All up to date.
Use Visual Studio 2015.
Run as Administrator.
Downgrade NVIDIA driver per this MSFT Ticket. I have an NVIDIA Quadro K1100M. Driver version from 10.18.13.5382 to 348.07 (9.18.13.4807).
Event Viewer. It does not show much info (Below), but it does indicate that the crash happened when I locked, not when I resumed from lock.

I fixed it. Indeed downgrading the video card driver did the trick. Here is exactly the driver I downloaded. I had downgraded twice because I really didn't know which one to pick.
Downgrade driver to 341.61-quadro-grid-desktop-notebook-win8-win7-64bit-international-whql.exe.
In the end, this link helped the most. I wish MS would re-open it. Search for "driver" in the page.
PS: Seems kind of dumb that this question and answer is really not related to coding, but Visual Studio is a pretty commonly used IDE. I only hope this answer helps someone in the future.
I am working on a very large MVC4 project.
Windows 7 64 bit, .NET Framework.4.5, Visual Studio 2012 Premium SP1
I work in a corporate environment and every night machines are updated. On 4/22 I left my machine on with VS running but not executing any code. On 4/23 in the morning I continued where I left off the night before. Machine response time seemed to be slow, so I rebooted. After the reboot I began getting this message when trying to debug:
Popup in VS: WebDev.WebServer40.exe has stopped working
Web page: This page can't be displayed
Fiddler displayed this message:
[Fiddler] The connection to 'localhost' failed.
Error: ConnectionRefused (0x274d).
System.Net.Sockets.SocketException No connection could be made because the target machine actively refused it [::1]:51043
The Windows Application log displays this error:

Report Id: 22f43805-cccf-11e3-866d-00270e269f58
NOTE: It looks like ole32.dll is implicated. Checking, I discovered that there is a known error in several versions, however, none of those versions exactly match 6.1.7601.17514 so I have been cautious about replacing it.
Working with networking engineers I determined that the issue is within VS. The app will run with Ctrl-F5 and WebDev.WebServer40.exe appears in the list of processes. Using F5 WebDev.WebServer40.exe appears briefly in the list of processes, then disappears as the error appears. Summoning the app from the browser works, too, however if I use F5 to try and debug WebDev.WebServer40.exe disappears from the list of processes.
I have tried the following:
Repaired .NET Framework 4.5.1
Cleared Visual Studio's temporary files
Operated other apps to determine if the cause is in the app. All other apps on my machine fail in the same way
Deleted browser cookies
Added/subtracted localhost entries in the Hosts file
Attempted to repair VS 2012 but that generates an error messages: (1) log files full and (2) some features were not installed
My associates and I are out of ideas and I am ready to completely uninstall VS2012 and reinstall, with all the time, effort and risk that entails unless someone else has a clearer idea of what might be happening and how to fix it.
Thanks in advance for any suggestions.
Thanks to Anthony and AlaN for your suggestions. It's important to check off possibilities with an error as vague as this one.
Microsoft support found the issue using the tttracing utility. A malware application had created a folder that contained: aecbbldsrvrc.dll.
...appdata\local\exction\aecbbldsrvrc.dll
That dll was getting added to the mix of dlls used for debugging. How that happens, I haven't a clue, yet. A Google search for aecbbldsrvrc.dll returns a lot of commentary.
And, btw, since I have disabled IPV6 and QOS on the network adapter I have noticed an improvement in network speed, thank you, Anthony!
Even i got the same error message in my application of MVC4
"webdev.webserver40.exe has stopped working" and throwing an stack overflow exception.
then you need to go through the code,check for the spellings used for proporties. change the spellings and check.

Has anyone come across something like this before? Any suggestions?
I managed to solve this by uninstalling both JDK and Android, reinstalling VS 2010, and then reinstalling JDK and Android again.
I am none the wiser as to why this long process needed to take place... but it works now...
