Trying to install Visual Studio Express 2013 for windows desktop:
System specs: Windows 7 64bit pro
After installing I get this message.
Restarting does not solve the problem and after that VS will not start.
Here is the important part of the log file that I could find:

I have tried re-installing .net frame work and re-installing VS multiple times. If someone could tell me what to try next that would be great.
Answer from http://johnlouros.com/blog/how-to-fix-VS2015-CTP6-NuGet-installation-failure seems to be:
That said, while writing this, I've tried running Control Panel, Visual studio, modify program, Repair and it now starts so that night work for you too! Hth
So basically I could not figure out what was wrong here and nothing was working. I think this was an issue with an old harddrive that I replaced. Even after I cloned the drive I had to reinstall my OS to fix this as well as some other problems
