What's New

• With this bug fix, a client can now use the bootstrapper in a layout and pass in the –noWeb parameter to install on a client machine and ensure that both the installer and the Visual Studio product are downloaded only from the layout. Previously, sometimes during the installation process, the installer would not respect the -noWeb parameter and would try to self-update itself from the web.

Developer Community
