Visual Studio 2013 Ultimate installation error - visual-studio

When I try to install Visual Studio 2013 Ultimate on my laptop, I get this error:
Setup Failed!
Install cannot continue because some required components failed.
Please correct the following problems and restart the setup to ensure full product functionality. To learn more, you can review the list of common issues and workarounds or examine the log file.
Setup Engine
This operation returned because the timeout period expired.
There wasn't anything of relevance in the list of common issues. In the log file there were these errors:
[0AA8:0FC4][2013-10-20T18:24:54]e000: Error 0x800705b4: Failed to wait for child to connect to pipe.
[0AA8:0FC4][2013-10-20T18:24:54]e000: Error 0x800705b4: Failed to connect to elevated child process.
[0AA8:0FC4][2013-10-20T18:24:54]e000: Error 0x800705b4: Failed to actually elevate.
[0AA8:0FC4][2013-10-20T18:24:54]e000: Error 0x800705b4: Failed to elevate.
Help appreciated.

We ran into this same issue this morning (with VS Premium 2013). The user was not a local administrator on their machine, which was causing the problem. Giving them local admin rights (or running the install as administrator) resolved the issue.

I would suggest you to look here Known Issues for Visual Studio 2013. Otherwise you can email them directly. Also remember to start the installer as an administrator. Also run windows update to make sure you have latest version of windows 8 or 8.1.

Visual Studio 2015 Enterprise uninstall, reinstall, change failure

Hello everyone i tried to install Visual Studio 2015 Enterprise. After the installation, i tried to start the Application and there was the error message:
"The computer needs to be restarted before setup can continue.Please
restart the computer and run setup again.".
I restarted my PC for several times, but every time, i get the same error. I tried to uninstall it, reinstall it, but i get the same error. I attach the log file and the screenshot of the message, i tried also uninstall it following the instructions here https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Yw5ahy28bXU
but nothing changed. Please help me! Thanks Here is the log file https://pastebin.com/9kHatAxN
Refer to the warning information, please go to Setting-Windows Update and make sure all pending patches are installed and reboot the computer. Sometimes, the installation of a previous program or Windows update might not complete successfully may be cause this issue, please check this.
If this issue persists after re-run the VS 2015 installer as administrator, try to shut down your computer not restart, you can go to Control Panel\System and Security\Power Options and click Choose what the power button does, turn off fast startup (recommended).
You can also check this similar issue and back up your registry key, delete this key HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\WindowsUpdate\Auto Update\ to have a try.

Package management initialization failed: Access Denied Error when opening Visual Studio 2017

I'm getting the following error when opening VS 2017 on Windows 7 64-bit:
Package management initialization failed: Access Denied.
You can get more information by examining the file:
C:\Users\<username>\AppData\Roaming\Microsoft\VisualStudio\15.<version>\ActivityLog.xml
It all started after I added my solution to SVN. I had no problems until I tried to add a file and got the following error:
Value does not fall within the expected range
I followed the steps mentioned in this answer and did a 'devenv /setup', after that I started getting the Package management initialization failed: Access Denied. error when opening VS. Now Visual Studio doesn't even start.
Has anyone else experienced this problem and resolved it?
Edit:
I tried starting as an administrator and it worked. But otherwise it doesn't.
It turns out that this is a bug, that hasn't yet been resolved. This error also occurs when starting Visual Studio after an update.
But there is a workaround from this thread that worked for me,
Delete the privateregistry.bin file from the following folder:
C:\users\%username%\Appdata\Local\Microsoft\VisualStudio\15.0_<version id>\
This is however a temporary fix and resets the user's preferences. That's why it worked when I started it as an administrator, since the problem is user specific.
Update
This bug is supposedly fixed in the latest versions of Visual Studio. But for the bug fix to work, the old privateregistry.bin file still needs to be deleted.
#Xpleria, the answer works fine. To open the AppData folder, you can type:
%AppData%
directly in the Address bar.

I had this issue after installing SSDT for VS 2017 in a new vs instance.
So it's like I have two visual studio in my machine.
To fix that, I uninstalled the SSDT package, restart my machine and reinstall it on the initial installed visual studio instance.
I had the same problem and when I looked at
C:\Users\UserName\AppData\Local\Microsoft\VisualStudio
I noticed that I had miltiple versions of visual studio meaning the current update might not have been successfull, as I was not able to delete the file that #Neil Patro says, I simply deleted the entire updates and all was ok.
I guess adding this as an answer might help.
Happened to me with an existing VS instance running, where I disabled an extension (VsChromium). Closing all VS instances solved the error and VS starts normally.
Env: VS 2019 Pro, Win 10 x64, running as current user.

KB2829760, Fatal error during installation, Visual Studio Community 2015

I am having some trouble installing Visual Studio Community 2015 on my laptop. It currently runs on Windows 7.
At first I was able to download it without any issues but then the trial period ran out and I wasn't able to log in to obtain a liciense. What I did instead was to try to uninstall Visual Studio and then reinstall it, in hopes that I can log in when it asks to in order to get the license. However, this did not go as plan and I had to remove it with other "methods".
Now I am trying to reinstall it but I keep getting a "fatal error during installation" message, which reads, "KB2829760, Fatal error during installation". I have attached the picture and my data log for my attempts at installation.
I have been through the registry, program files, program files x86, and uninstalled my previous versions of Visual Studio, which were not working by the way.
I need any help possible.

KB2829760, Fatal error during installation
Thank You All
I had same problem, I had 2 drives locked by bitlocker on my workstation, unlocking units allowed the installer to complete.
Looks like the installer is trying to access all of your drives, so my advice is to remove any mapped network drive that is not accessible and to unlock the bitlocker drives before to install visual studio (or kb2829760).
