Question

So I\'ve created an offline installed of VS 2017 Community on my laptop using this command:

vs_community.exe --layout \"D:\\Downloads\\VS

Answer 1

How i solved mine.

1. I downloaded the setup helper from Microsoft website (i downloaded the enterprise installer, because that's the offline installer version i have )
2. I ran the program, and it wanted to download the complete setup, so i cancelled it
3. I ran my offline installer (vs_Enterprise.exe)
4. Then it fixed the issue.
5. I disconnected the internet, and continued with the offline installation
