    I finally got this this work. Ironically, 'repair' does not seem to 'repair' anything. So instead I selected 'Modify' and tweaked a few options.

    All is well after that.

    I was finally able to get it to work.

    Be aware - VS 2017 RC took 3-6 times (lost count) of "repairing" the installation before it actually fully installed. It would say it was done, but would then go in and "repair" the installation and it would keep installing/fixing stuff that wasn't fully installed.

    After it was FINALLY done installing and repairing, it installed all the Web Extension Pack appropriately.

    This is usually because the installer is looking for a particular path that is associated with a product version. With the RC release, that has probably all changed and the installers aren't yet compatible :(
