Did anyone had any luck installing the new version of Microsoft Visual Studio?

Question

So Visual Studio 2017 is released and I cannot wait to see it's new features. But the new web installer is crap. I choose the workloads and it starts the download. Then It loses connection after a while.
And there is no ISO file for it. Why Microsoft didn't release an ISO file for this version and are they planning to do so or I shouldn't get my hopes up?

Answer 1

I was able to install it on the first try, but the recent update failed. The installer is much better than 2015's version. You probably have ISP problems if you lose connection...

You can't generate code metrics in this version and that sucks. Besides that, it's great.

Answer 2

I have not tried it yet.

btw which browser did you use?

It may not change anything, but, whatever works.

Answer 3

not yet! i will try in the morning. maybe their servers cant keep up. too much demand. They will release an iso eventually. have you tried calling? they might post u a dvd maybe

Answer 4

I installed it a few days ago. I had some problems though, as my connection was spotty at best and the web installer kept failing. That could've been handled better, since VS can easily reach 20GB+ in size.

Answer 5

use a download manager to prevent failure during big downloads. I use jDownloader ant it worked for me good enough for me to suggest it.
