Can I download and install just the VS 2017 15.9.4 update?
I have Visual Studio 2017 on my build machine now and all is well. I need to install VS2017 15.9.4 update so that I can move forward with the .NET Core 2.1.7 install. I've tried doing this from within VS and I am getting:
An installed product matching the following parameters cannot be found.
installPath: C:Program Files (x86)Microsoft Visual Studio2017Enterprise.
The log file that is generated has this in it:
Error: Microsoft.VisualStudio.Setup.Download.DownloadFailureException:
WebClient download failed: Unable to connect to the remote server. Bits download failed:
Error context: BG_ERROR_CONTEXT_REMOTE_FILE, Error code: -2145844845.
WinInet download failed: Object reference not set to an instance of an object.
I'm not sure what remote server can't be hit. Can I just download the update and install it? Or do something on my build server to make it access the "remote server"?

The upgrade process for Visual Studio 2017 requires you to download the entire ISO and reinstall each individual component you wish to update. I suggest downloading a VS 2017 15.9.4 ISO and upgrading that way. How you accomplish this is well documented if there is a specific step you are stuck on, provide that information. "I'm not sure what remote server can't be hit." - I will take this as a literal question, it's a Microsoft server, if your trying to update an offline installation that would be the reason you got this error.
