Microsoft Visual Studio 2019 Build Tools 16.7.0-16.7.3 x86

This installer is build tools from Microsoft (that is all that is tedious to build the project without the development environment, without IDE). If you need to install the development environment is.

More specifically, in contrast to the complete studio that the installer does not have a component in the composition of VS IDE Core and accordingly through BuildTools you do not set a visual development environment.

Through this, an attempt is made to reduce the weight of the installer and reduce the size and impact on Windu. No additional features BuildTools does not provide (ie, it’s like "the toolchain from melkomyagkih" … I think it would be worth modifying and call so that all at once it was clear … but apparently the desire to be unique and unrepeatable keeps them safely use already existing terms).

Setting:
• Disconnect from the Internet … that the installer did not download the list of components to the latest version … that is probably still do not have in hand. If this happens then the installer may not have enough of what is in the hand and can appear Error downloading
• If the installer does not have access to the internet then installs the certificate for performing the self-installer as administrator Certificates_Setup.cmd
• Then, start Setup_BuildTools .cmd, where X specifies the version number which you want to install (ie 16.7.X)

There may be difficulties with the studio update:
When upgrading the studio prefer to do this than through a pop-up automatically prompted to update the studio, and abandoning him use "Download and Update". This will allow you to first see a problem with the update sooner than the studio to start deleting components already installed. The second problem with the update in this case, there is less and you may even stumble on it.
This distribution of the installer, you can install / upgrade only BuildTools editorial studio. Look for the other hand if you need / you have another edition of the studio have a look here.
The essence of the update problems studio in offline mode is that the studio installer sometimes does not see any of the downloaded components if the name of the folder from which the installer does not run the same when installing in a studio. If this happened to you then you need to either restart the installer but from the same folder, or just rearrange the studio, or to provide access to the Internet.
