## When to Use Repair
2222
* If you're having installation payload issues. This may happen when writing the file to disk is not successful, and can't be fixed by deleting the corrupted file. Repair can re-acquire needed files.
2323
* If you're having client-side download issues. Assuming you've resolved any connection or proxy issues, repair may help.

* If the install issue is caused by an issue in an underlying Windows service, like Windows Installer. A repair may help, but may hit the same issue if it is systemic, such as a broken Windows Installer or internet connection. To check if this is the case, use the error report generated from the installation operation.

* If you're having issues updating Visual Studio. Repair fixes many common update issues.

> Repairing Visual Studio resets user settings, and re-installs the assemblies you already have. If you're experiencing a product issue, create a [Visual Studio Feedback Ticket](https://developercommunity.visualstudio.com/content/problem/post.html?space=8), as Repair may not solve the issue.
