Hi,

Have you installed the update for Microsoft Visual Studio 2010 Service Pack 1 (KB2736182)?

If you have, I suggest you follow these steps to reinstall VS 2010 SP1.

1. Update your windows and disable Anti-Virus software.

2. Use ISO file to install VS 2010 SP1. You can download the ISO file from the website below.

Before you install it, I suggest you use this tool http://support.microsoft.com/kb/841290 to verify hash of the ISO. Any discrepancy would indicate that the file was corrupted. Here is a blog about how to use the tool.

3.Clear your %temp% folder.

4.Run the setup file as administrator.

5.If the installation fails, please use http://aka.ms/vscollect to gather the latest installation logs. After using it, you will find vslogs.cab from %temp% folder. Please upload the file to https://skydrive.live.com/ and share the link here.
