I tried both the web installer and the ISO image file (the x64 version), with the same result, except that the ISO file omits the downloading step in the log file.
I have one version of the Microsoft Visual C++ 2005 Redistributable (x64) installed, and one version of the Microsoft Visual C++ 2008 Redistributable (x64) installed. No 2010 (or later) version.
I then noticed it is required to have Microsoft .NET Framework installed, so I installed version 4.5.2.
This did not affect the results. I got the same error message, and the same logged events.
Windows SDK v7.1 won’t install on i7-3840QM Win 7 Pro 64bit
After installing .Net Framework 4 version 4.0.30319 I’ve been trying to install Windows SDK v7.1. I’ve tried installing from the Microsoft web interface multiple times as well as by downloading and burning 3 different CD’s from ISO images. I’ve also tried a clean boot and install through the web interface but had identical results. The first difference I see when comparing with a successful install I did on an i7-2500k processor is on line 11 of the SDKSetup_7.0.6918.0.log file. Lines 10-12 of the i7-2500k log file (successfully installed) read:
Config_Products_DetermineProductState_Begin: Product: Microsoft Windows SDK for Windows 7
Config_Products_DetermineMSIFeatureState_Begin: MSI Feature: WinSDK.1631
Config_Products_DetermineMSIFeatureState: MSI Feature: WinSDK.1631; Installed: Local; Request: Unknown;
and the log from this failed install on an i7-3840QM reads (differences underlined):
Config_Products_DetermineProductState_Begin: Product: Microsoft Windows SDK for Windows 7
Config_Products_DetermineProductState: Product: Microsoft Windows SDK for Windows 7; Installed: Unknown;
Windows Installer reported no registered source locations for the WinSDKproduct.
The final error message in the log is not very helpful since the file was not installed:
Windows SDK Setup (failed): Installation of the «Microsoft Windows SDK for Windows 7» product has reported the following error:
Please refer to Samples\Setup\HTML\ConfigDetails.htm document for further information.
The log file when installing from the GRMSDKX_EN_DVD.iso is essentially identical to the one generated by the web interface.
The log file when installing from either GRMSDK_EN_DVD.iso or GRMSDKIAI_EN_DVD.iso aborts quickly with the message:
Setup could not find the file WinSDK_amd64\WinSDK_amd64.msi at any of the specified source locations
I’m stumped. Is it just me or are others having problems installing on the new Ivy Bridge chips?

Question
I am not able to install Windows 10 SDK (14393) . I have tried several times the last three days from different desktops on different networks, so i am pretty sure that the problem is not related to poor network connections. I have tried installation through visual studion 2015 and visual studio 2017. And also by sdksetup, where i tried both installation and only downloading (to different locations).
The log indicate a problem with a specific file/cab:

I hope sombody can helping me find a solution

Thanks — however this did not help in my case, same SDK download/integrity failure errors were observed after I had uninstalled all versions of Windows SDKs from my machine, and exactly the same errors were seen when I tried installing standalone SDK on clean Windows installation, it does not look to be related to VS 2017 RC or to existing installations of Windows SDK.
However I found a workaround that solved my problem — I created Azure VM with region Japan East, and tried downloading SDK for offline installation, and that succeeded. I then copied over installation files from VM to my machine and successfully installed SDK. It seems to be something geographically-related, e.g. could be something with Microsoft download servers configured for region of Denmark, or something with Danish internet gateways.

Thank you for posting in MSDN forum.
For this issue, Let’s see the following error message:
>>Error 0x80091007: Hash mismatch for path: C:\Users\npg\AppData\Local\Temp\
The Hash mismatch means that the Win 10 SDK packages is not complete, some packages are missing or corrupted.
Firstly, please temporarily disable all the AV software and firewall during the setup process.
Then you may try the /layout option for the tools offline installation. It allows you to download the full set of files, please try the following steps:
1. Download from SDKSETUP .exe web installer from Windows 10 SDK
2. Run the following command at a command prompt: SDKSETUP.EXE /layout. After you run the command, you should be prompted for the download location. Enter the location, and then choose Download.
3. This command downloads all the packages for the installation. see as below:
4.When the package download is successful, you should see a Visual Studio screen that says Setup Successful as below:
5. In the file location that you specified, find the executable file and the package folder. This is everything you need to copy to a shared location or install media.
You can now run the installation from the file location or the install media.
If the error still persists after doing the above, please feel free to let me know, I will help you to analyze more.

Hi, Thanks for reply
I have already tried running sdksetup.exe with the layout option, and this also fails. I just repeated the setup as you described with my AV and firewall turned off. Unfortunately, the result is the same. The setup fails when downloading the package (payA059C4F9394E47AFD81C08AB201AB7C4) in Windows Software Development kit, after 10 retries.
Currently, the Windows 10 SDK (10.0.14393.0) does not install successfully on Windows 7.
You can install successfully on Windows 8.1 or Windows 10. Visual C++ projects that depend on an earlier Windows SDK,
such as Windows 10 SDK (10.0.10586.0) or the Windows 8.1 SDK can still be built.
From Programs and Features, select Windows Software Development Kit and click Change, or download and run the Windows 10 SDK (14393) installer.
In the Windows SDK installer, select the «Windows Software Development Kit» and «.NET Framework SDK» features.
Run Visual Studio Installer, click Modify, and then click Install. You do not need to change any feature selections.
In this situation, I need to check the logs to see what blocking this SDK downloading. please use http://aka.ms/vscollect to gather the installation logs. After using it, you will find vslogs.zip from %temp% folder. upload the file to https://onedrive.live.com/ and share the link here.

I am installing on windows 10, so that should not be the problem.

Sorry for my delay reply and wish you all the blessings of a beautiful Christmas season.
I just checked your log, besides the error information about Win 10 SDK, also a Windows patch wrong update about KB3073097:

Would you mind going to Settings > Update & security > Windows Update to check if you have installed all the patches? As we know, the prerequisite of installing VS and SDK well is to ensure the Windows update and patches up.

This error indicates that the Windows SDK or Windows Emulator setup invoked by Visual Studio setup has lost internet connectivity and cannot download necessary files. But you have mentioned that tried different desktop and it couldn’t be a network problem.
In this situation, I suggest you could use ISO which matches your VS 2015 (VS 2017 RC doesn’t have ISO image currently), to repair your VS first, then go to Program & Features, select Visual Studio 2015, and select Change. Click Modify, then select the features «Universal Windows App Development Tools» and/or «Emulators for Windows Mobile», and click Update.
