I am trying to install Microsoft Visual Studio Express 2013 with Update 3 for Windows. I have downloaded its iso image, and the started the installation. But it seems to be stuck at "Configuring your system, this may take a while" for more than 2-3 hours.

Does it usually takes this much time only, is it normal, or there seems to be a problem with the iso file? How much time does it usually take for complete installation?

Visual studio generally takes a lot of time as it is the new update, wait for some more time if it is still the same, cancel and try updating again.

I was having the same problem, if you're visual Studio just stuck for to long like mine was, use alt-tab, to switch to another windows.

This might show a hidden windows with the next steps. Hope that can help you

Here's also some info that could help Visual Studio takes forever to start the first time

i recently downloaded the Visual Studio 2015 community and i agree that it takes much more time..... just keep your lappy away for installing and go away for doing some other stuff........it is going to take 3 hrs approx
