Estimated installation time for Visual Studio 2010 Professional

I have an i5-560m dell laptop with windows 7 (x64) on board with an 8gb 1333 ddr bar. I started the installation of a professional VS 2010 with the full version ... something like 12 hours ago ... and it is still on the 4th component in the installation list. It does something because after an hour ... the progress indicator moves ... but there are problems with the update in this shitty installation window, so I canโ€™t switch it to visible using the alt + tab or click on it ... just minimizing everything brings it to my eyes. But this is not the main problem. The most confusing aspect is the process itself! It already consumes 3.9 GB of RAM with a processor load of 22% ... and acts very slowly when the whole system responds very quickly, even if more than 5 GB of RAM is consumed now.

My question is: is there any magic I have to do before I run this installer (which is marked as a 32-bit process in the task manager - why?). Respectfully, I killed almost all redundant processes after 8 hours, because I thought that other things were blocking him ... but they didnโ€™t help at all. How long will it take? Can it somehow accelerate?

It should not last so long. I would say maybe half an hour more. The setup probably freezes, waiting for some resource or input from another process (I had the installation for a few minutes due to UAC).

I would say this:

  • Cancel installation
  • Disable UAC
  • Reboot your system.
  • Try to install again. Note: If it is from a DVD, try to make an image of it and install 120% with Daemon Tools or Alcohol.
  • Remember to re-enable UAC.

If you turned off UAC, try turning it on, maybe VS is looking for it.

I install it in 10-20 minutes. Something is wrong with your laptop. If you received an anti-virus application, disable it, if this question still exists, then this is probably the cause of viruses or spyware. Another possibility is the incorrect configuration of windows or some applications.

The best solution is to reinstall windows.
