I was in the process of updating 16.9.3 to 16.9.4 when I received a BSOD (IRQL not less or equal!). After restarting I ran the updater but almost as soon as it started it quit. After a couple of attempts I tried the following:

1. Checked that my PD was up2date – ok

2. Installed the latest video drivers

3. Uninstalled the installer

4. Cleaned the registry with CCleaner

5. Restarted my PC

Downloaded vs_Comunity.exe and ran it.

It downloaded and installed the installer ok and the message “Almost done getting everything ready” was displayed. Then boom, it just vanished. I tried to run the installer again, but the same – starts then stops. I checked in the task manager and it was definitely gone.

If I start Visual studio, which still works luckily, the check for updates doesn’t do anything anymore.

Please, how can I repair the installer?


Thanks,

Gerry.
