title: Visual Studio 2015 Community Edition Installation Stuck In Windows 10
body: <p>I am trying to install VS 2015 in Windows 10 and the installation is stuck at the "Applying Microsoft Visual Studio 2015 x86 Debug Runtime - 14.0.23026" section for around 4 hours.</p>
  
  <p>The Acquiring section is showing 100% though. </p>
  
  <p>Terminated the same to find the below details in a log file:</p>

  <p>After "Set the Cache Complete Event" it is stuck for 3 hours...</p>
  
  <p>When I look at the Task Manager details -> Analyze wait chain for the exe, it shows deadlock. </p>
