It has nothing to do with lazyness. If you're behind a proxy that 
abomination of a installer of Visual Studio doesn't work. I tried 
several times, offline and online setup, read the Studio forums. 
Studio 2017 installer doesn't work inside our environment at work 
(EU Commission). Might be an issue with our infrastructure but 
it's unlikely as I managed to install a lot of things before.
