I tried to install the new Visual Studio 2015 Community Edition but unfortunately without success because the installation gets stuck on creating a system restore point.
What I did to solve the problem:
- checked if enough space on disk
- started installation as administrator
- adjusted the maximum disk space used for system protection (4GB)
Do you know other possible solutions I could try to solve my problme? Ty
Are you able to create a restoration point manually currently? – Ramhound – 2015-07-28T11:18:50.723
@Ramhound I never created a restoration point manually. But is there any way to get over this step and continue with the installation? – CMS – 2015-07-28T11:25:49.990
I am asking if you can create a restoration point in order to rule out several dozen reasons connected to the inability to do so. When you answer my simple but important question I will be continue my research into your problem. – Ramhound – 2015-07-28T11:52:40.287
@Ramhound i tried it and yes I am able to create a restoration point manually – CMS – 2015-07-28T11:56:05.127
I have not installed VS in awhile. The restoration creation process is before/after the installation process begins/ends? Can you verify the hash of the .ISO your using is correct? – Ramhound – 2015-07-28T11:58:25.070
I had VS2013 Pro hang on the system restore point. I ended up cancelling the install and after rebooting tried it again. On the 2nd attempt I ran the install program as administrator and that got the installation working. – John M – 2016-05-25T02:13:48.537
