vs_installershell.exe has an invalid certificate. Error when trying to update, open, repair or reinstall; and now I can't open Visual Studio!
I tried the post from the Visual Studio Community but, when I click the asked update button, it loads then it stops working. View article.

Probably due to a pending Windows update not being installed. Solution recommended by MSDN:
Please go to windows update and make sure all pending windows update are installed and reboot the computer, then go to C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Visual Studio\Installer then run vs_installershell.exe as administrator.
just delete Vs_installer.exe and Vs_installershell.exe from the address below and then run Visual Studio setup again which subsequently copy the installer to the same folder :
C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Visual Studio\Installer
then run the installer if you want !
