Error when trying to install SSMS 18.4 version

Not sure if anyone has came across this problem but any help is greatly appreciated.
I have SSMS 18.0 Preview 4 installed on my local machine. Whenever I am trying to install any new released version of SSMS I get below error.
Error: The Generally Available (GA) version of SQL Server Management Studio (SSMS) v18.0 cannot be installed because a pre-release version of SSMS is installed on your computer. Uninstall the pre-release version of SSMS from 'Add/Remove Programs' in the Control Panel and run SSMS setup again.
SO i followed the Error and completely removed Preview version. And when i am running new SSMS set up file it still showing same error though i do not have Preview version installed on. I restarted machine after uninstall as well.
Though in error image it says set up is blocked but when i run the SSMS 18 prview 4 it doesn't give me this error and take me to install click.
Any thoughts or solution will highly helpful.
Thank you.
If you encounter this error with the reason being "ssms is currently running", check the file name of the setup exe. If it's ssms.exe, rename it to anything else, I suspect the setup is detecting itself as being management studio based on file name. This worked for me.
Just FYI... This tool helped me to remove the SSMS for SSAS and SSRS which wasn't showing up during regular uninstall.
Tried the MS removal tool and it was showing 4 different SSMS which i uninstalled and finally i was able to install SSMS 18.4.

In my case, I was getting the error "SSMSCurrentlyRunning = SSMS is currently running. Please close any open instances of SSMS and run this installer again."
I downloaded the file again and it worked.
I had this problem, reinstalled version 18 public preview 7 on https://cloudblogs.microsoft.com/sqlserver/2019/03/01/sql-server-management-studio-18-0-public-preview-7-released/
and then uninstalled and installed the updated version.

Error while deploying SSIS package

I am getting this Microsoft.SqlServer.Management.IntegrationServicesEnum error while deploying a SSIS package on a server for its respective job. I am able to check-in and all other stuff, just not deploy the packages for some reasons
I have tried Uninstalling and reinstalling visual studios and repair SSDT as well but to no avail.
Let me know if there is a way to rectify and correct this error.
Below Link is the error screenshot.
Try a repair of Visual Studio, that should help.

SSIS script task fail version15.0 script when executing through SQL Agent

I know this do the trick by deploying pkg through Visual Studio as I was also facing the same issue.
But recently my DBA, told me that he is not fine with installing visual studio on PROD in order to deploy packages. Is there any workaround for this as I can't install visual studio on PROD server still want to get rid of this error.
I tried degrading pgk version to 2015/2016 in TargetServerVersion but it didn't work, still facing the same issue.
Do we have to have visual studio if our SSIS pkg contain script task ?
I faced that issue before and the fix was registering the dll in the server. You don't need to install VS.

Visual Basic Command Line Compiler has stopped working

Yesterday, I could work with Visual Studio 2010 without any problem. However, today after I turned on the computer and tried to open my project (Web application with Visual Basic.NET) on VS2010 again, I got a message box showing as below:
Later, I found out after I tried deleting suo file that this message box will show up whenever I open some file in Visual Studio so I tried to run the application. Then, I found another message box popped up as below:
And after I close the message box, I finally got this window
It says:
Compilation Error
Compiler Error Message: The compiler failed with error code -1073741511.
I have searched for the solution through the internet. I have found a few methods that might solve the solution such as scanning for virus, using clean boot. I have also tried repairing and uninstalling VS2010 and .NET framework but none still work. Right now, I have no idea what I should to do make it work again.
Anyway, I realized that there is Windows auto update when I turned off the computer. Not so sure if this related to the problem (I used Window 8.1).
After formatting Drive C to reinstalling everything again, I found out that the reason might be Windows update. I have started from reinstalling Windows 8, all necessary programs (except Visual Studio and SQL Management Studio) and all window updates required for upgrading to Windows 8.1.
When I successfully got to Windows 8.1, I created system restore point and try installing VS2010 and all windows update. The result had caused the same error I posted in this thread.
After that, I restored back to original state and installed VS2010 first. Then installed some of windows updates. This time, I decided to install all updates except the ones that have publish date after 10/11/2015. The result is satisfied. I don't get this error again.
Later, Hans Passant help me find the actual cause of this problem. Please see this link:

Replacing SQL Server 2005 Express Management Studio with the full version

I have been running SQL Server 2005 Express Management Studio ("SSMSE"), and I now have a need to install the full version of Management Studio ("SSMS"). This is a known hassle, but I've not found a comprehensive way to carry it out.
At first, I uninstalled SSMSE, and then ran SqlRun_Tools.msi to install the toolset. I got this error message:
A component that you have specified in the ADD_LOCAL property is already
installed. To upgrade the existing component, refer to the template.ini
and set the UPGRADE property to the name of the component.
I had no idea what template.ini was. So I looked around, and decided to uninstall the rest of the minimal installation of SQL Server 2005 Express on my computer by following Microsoft's advice in KB 909967, "How to uninstall an instance of SQL Server 2005 manually." That bit was very successful.
But when I attempted to run SqlRun_Tools.msi again, I faced this mess when the installer was "Preparing Installation Wizard":
The setup has encountered an unexpected error in datastore. The action
is SetDialogs. The error is : Source File Name:
...\datastorecachexmlschema.cpp
**** Compiler Timestamp: Fri Jul 29 01:13:50 2005
**** Function Name: DataStoreCacheXMLSchema::initScopeRecord*****Sour...
(but replace the asterisks with box chars, which were probably CR-LF's in the original message)
This is very frustrating. Does anybody have any advice for installing the full version of SSMS over top of SSMSE? Any help you can provide would be greatly appreciated!
I have also installed SQL Management Studio before just using the SqlRun_Tools.msi package without any problems but I think if you have previously had any other SQL Server 2005 components installed then you will need to install the Setup Support Files first as this is probably what sets up the component installation sequence. This can be done either by installing from the SQL Server installation media or by running the sqlsupport.msi file as described in the Microsoft KB article.
I resolve this problem
Steps
Go to Add\remove program
unstall SQL server browser
Install support files from CD
Install SQL_Tools.MSI
Well, I roughly found out what the problem was, based on a somewhat cryptic resolution mentioned across a few different forums. This solution suggested that I needed to install Setup Support Files. Maybe it was reinstall, since I removed something with the same name when uninstalling SQL2K5 Express. I'm not sure if they were the same files, between the full version and the Express Edition.
I had tried reinstalling SQLXML4, the Native Client, and MSXML6 just to see if I could get beyond the error involving datastorecachexmlschema.cpp, and each time, I got the same error again. But I tried the technique mentioned in the above link, and it worked perfectly.
Basically, you insert the CD and run just the first part of the installation process, which installs the installation tools, including Setup Support Files. Then you cancel the rest of the installation process, and run SqlRun_Tools.msi instead.
I got great results when upgrading 2008 express to 2008 developer by (running setup) first going to Maintenance->Upgrade Edition, and then (since Management Tools etc was still "express" and I mainly needed the Sql Profiler) I also did a complete "new" installation (Installation->"New installation or add features.."), selecting the existing instance and then selecting all features.
No uninstall or command line necessary.
Behaved the same afterwards, just with new features.
