This page also provides a summary of the products and components to be installed. Click Install. The installation should begin immediately. If there is no error, the installation should complete with the message asking you to restart the machine. Then, restart the computer. You have two choices for the installation: Online web or off-line install. Click the Visual Basic Express Edition link. Then, in this installation we just skip this, click Next. We cannot change the installation path because the full version, Visual Studio already installed in this machine.
Your fresh installation may be different which can change the default given installation path. Change accordingly if needed. If there is no error, the installation should complete with the following page. Click Exit. Microsoft frequently releases updated versions of the product to fix functionality or security issues.
We recommend that you keep you layout updated with the latest version of the product, so that new client installs always receive the latest goodness. It's also very important to keep your layout updated if your clients are configured to receive updates from the layout.
When you create the initial layout, the specified options, such as which workloads and languages to include in the layout, are saved in the layout's configuration file. Later, when you want to update that layout to a newer version of the product, you don't have to re-specify the options that you used during initial layout creation.
The layout update commands automatically use the saved layout settings. Suppose you already created this partial layout using one of the evergreen bootstrappers in the table above. Updating this layout to the latest version of the product offered by Microsoft and hosted on Microsoft servers is easy. You just need to use the same evergreen bootstrapper, and run the --layout command again to download the latest packages into your layout. You can also update your layout to a newer version in an unattended manner.
The layout operation runs the setup process in a new console window. The window is left open so users can see the final result and a summary of any errors that might have occurred. If you are performing a layout operation in an unattended manner for example, you have a script that is regularly run to update your layout to the latest version , then use the --passive parameter and the process will automatically close the window.
Sometimes you may want to update your layout to a particular version of the product. For example, you may want to make your layout match the latest secure version of the servicing baseline that you have standardized your organization on.
Here's how to do this:. You can go to the Visual Studio Releases page and download a particular fixed version bootstrapper, copy it into your layout, and use it to update the layout to that exact version specified in the bootstrapper.
You would use the exact same syntax as above. You can go to the Visual Studio Release History page and download a particular fixed version bootstrapper, copy it into your layout, and use it to update the layout to that exact version specified in the bootstrapper. You can use an administrator update to update your layout to a specific version. To get the Administrator Update , go to the Microsoft Update Catalog , search for the update you want to update your layout to.
Download the update. Note that administrator updates will not initiate an original layout install; they will only update an existing layout or a client instance. Occasionally, as channels transition out of support, you will need to ensure that the network layout continues to be based off of a supported channel so that your clients can continue to receive notifications of security updates. If your layout is based off of the VisualStudio.
To change the channel that the layout is based off of, simply acquire the desired channel's bootstrapper from the Visual Studio Release History page, copy it into your layout folder, and perform a normal update. Your clients should then be appropriately notified of an update so they will be able to stay secure too. It is possible to modify this layout and add or remove additional workloads or components or languages.
In the example below, we'll add the Azure workload and a localized language to the layout we created above. After we've made the modification, both the Managed Desktop and Azure workloads, and the English and German resources are included in this layout.
Also, the layout is updated to the latest available version. If you want to modify an existing partial layout so that it becomes a full layout, use the --all option, as shown in the following example. Here's how to add an additional workload and localized language without updating the version. This command adds the ASP. NET and Web Development workload.
The language resources for English, German, and French are also included for all these workloads. However, the layout is not updated to the latest available version when this command is run.
It remains at the existing version. An update operation doesn't download or install additional optional components either to the layout or onto the client. If you need to add or change optional components, first remove the old optional components from the layout.
Then, when you run the --layout command to update the layout, it will download the newly added components into the layout. To get these new components installed on the client machine, make sure you do these three steps. First, verify that the layout contains the new components as described above.
Next, update your client to the latest bits in the layout. Finally, again on the client, run a modify operation which will install the new components that were added to the layout onto the client machine. You can configure your layout to always include and provide the latest installer to your clients, even if the installer is considered a part of a more recent version of Visual Studio. Thus, when your client updates from this layout, the client will acquire the latest installer that's included and provided by this layout.
The benefit is that once the latest installer is on your client, your client installations will be able to take advantage of the bug fixes and new functionality that we continue to add to the installer. If want to change the location where your client's Visual Studio installation looks for updates , then you must get the latest Visual Studio installer on your client machine.
One way to do this is to include the Visual Studio installer within your Visual Studio layouts using the parameters described below. The capability to use the latest installer is only available to Visual Studio bootstrappers that were built after Visual Studio originally shipped.
You can pass in the --useLatestInstaller parameter to the bootstrapper when you're creating or updating the layout.
This will cause a setting to get set in the layout. Here's an example for how to update the layout and configure it to use the latest and greatest installer available. Click here for a link to post in the Visual Studio Express forum. The experts there will be better able to address your issue. Was this reply helpful? Yes No. Sorry this didn't help.
Thanks for your feedback. There is only one account on my computer and is, obviously, system administrator. So enjoy with this light-weight Visual Studio and have the magic. You can also install. I want to download it at my workplace then install it back in home, but all I can find are web installers.
