重装VS2013时碰到了这样的问题，总是提示“安装失败，安装无法继续，因为某些必需的组件失败”。
校验了安装文件，是没有问题的，使用了“Windows Install Clean Up”清理过，同样不行

最后在网上查到了解决办法，发现是注册表权限问题。
psexec.exe是修改注册表权限的工具，下载地址：https://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/sysinternals/bb897553.aspx
1、运行cmd，定位到psexec.exe所在文件路径，然后执行：psexec.exe -i -d -s regedit.exe ，会启动注册表
2、找到 HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINESOFTWAREMicrosoftWindowsCurrentVersionInstallerUserDataS-1-5-18Components
3、在Components文件夹右键，选择“权限”，选中“Administros”，设置为“完全控制”。（在“Componets”文件夹设置权限，是为了省事，不用一个个设置下面子文件的权限）
然后重新安装VS2013，成功。
