I have been using VS 2019 with the .NET workload for around a year and decided to install the Desktop C++ workload to develop some OpenGL apps. Whenever I choose the "Desktop Development with C++" workload and click on install it starts the process but in the middle a message pops up saying "tried downloading this package nine times and failed" then it has three buttons Continue, Retry and Cancel. which ever I press and proceed does not help. Instead my entire Visual Studio gets damaged and I had to reinstall it three times.
Finally i had to download VS 2017 with C++ workload and works perfectly fine. Please tell me how to fix the VS2019 C++ workload problem.
