I am downloading visual Studio Community 2015 offline and it stuck at almost 99% for about 4 hours by now.

I am downloading offline installer using cmd command <executable name> /layout

Status in taskbar looks like it is stoped/paused enter image description here

Just Wait.

I had this exact problem. While the installer was hanging, I checked in the task manager and saw that the vs_community.exe process seemed to be active (Memory and CPU usage were fluctuating). So I left the computer on overnight, and in the morning, it had finished the install.

    How is this not an answer? As I read it, the answer given is to make sure the process is really still working, and continue waiting (possibly overnight).

  • I wanted to comment but got a message that I wasn't allowed to...I stumbled upon this question yesterday as I had the exact same problem (stucked 3 hours on 99%). I answered it as the answer I would have liked to find yesterday. I was almost going to cancel the installation, or kill the process.

  • I had to cancel the setup. When i'll download next time i'll keep it mind. Thanx though.
