I tried to update Visual Studio 2017 Enterprise edition. I got the above error, requiring that I uninstall the Visual Studio 2017.
I contacted the live chat for the installation, and they recomended I do all of the below (which I have done)
Download the latest install software (version 15.9.28307.108)
Please follow the cleanup steps and retry your VS install • See if you have this file on your machine: "%programfiles(x86)%\Microsoft Visual Studio\Installer\resources\app\layout\InstallCleanup.exe" • If so, please launch it from an admin command prompt with a -full param: "%programfiles(x86)%\Microsoft Visual Studio\Installer\resources\app\layout\InstallCleanup.exe" -full
If not, please manually delete the "%programfiles(x86)%\Microsoft Visual Studio\Installer” folder • Relaunch the newly downloaded vs_enterprise.exe (or vs_professional.exe or vs_community.exe…) • Allow the first step to install the installer • Once the installer comes up and you can see workload choices (.net desktop and the like), close it • Go launch the same InstallCleanup.exe to clean up old build of VS • Then relaunch vs_enterprise.exe and install VS

UNINSTALL
1. Please navigate to C:\Program Files x86 and search for a Microsoft Visual Studio folder. Then right click and delete that folder. 2. Then remove only Visual Studio folders from these 2 locations, if they are there C:\Users\YOURPROFILENAME\AppData\Local\Microsoft C:\ProgramData\Microsoft 3. Lastly, please type regedit in the lower left search field to access the registry editor... Once it's open navigate to HKEY LOCAL MACHINE > SOFTWARE > MICROSOFT and check for a Visual Studio folder there. If you see one there, right click and delete the folder. SHIFT + SUPRIM
