VsWebProtocolSelector.Msi won't listen new Shared Installation Path

I try desperately to find an answer to the thread I started few months ago.

Here is the issue : I can't install Visual Studio (any version) anymore because the package windows installer (.msi) do not want to listen to the shared installation path that has been changed in the registry editor at HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\\SOFTWARE\\Microsoft\\VisualStudio\\Setup\\SharedInstallationPath. You'll understand with these 2 screenshots :

Here is the SharedInstallationPath I updated to test:

Here is the response after I changed the path:

Which is the same as before I changed. It's been a year now since I had this issue. There's nothing I can do to make VsWebProtocolSelector to change the path of the shared files. Is there anyway I can change this path (by the registry editor maybe)? You can find the file on your computer at C:\ProgramData\Microsoft\VisualStudio\Packages\Microsoft.VisualStudio.VsWebProtocolSelector.Msi,version=17.4.33006.217

Does someone know what can I do?

[Edit] Update : I just wipe my HDD's partitions and re-install windows with a new Visual Studio Community 2022.

Solution

I ran into the same problem today. I searched the registry for VsWebProtocolSelector and found some installation data at HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Installer\UserData\S-1-5-18\Products\6957A9C67E8C0B445B1C515DBC7994A9\InstallProperties. In there was a value named UninstallString. I promptly executed it:

MsiExec.exe /I{6C9A7596-C8E7-44B0-B5C1-15D5CB97499A}

Afterwards, the Visual Studio Setup involving VsWebProtocolSelector suceeded.

Note: This answer probably does the same thing: Couldn't update When I use Visual Studio Installer to update new version (for example 15.7.* to 15.9.* or up to now)
