Summary0014388: Ask for administrativ
DescriptionIn Windows, the default installation location is C:\Program files. Installing stuff there required administrator privileges.

Currently, Visual Studio fails to install with the message "Maybe need administrative privileges."

A better solution would be if the UAC asked for elevation while installing.
