whilst trying to install "ASP.NET and Web Tools 2012.2" the installer advises me of an updated WPI installer version 4.5
Clicking "I Accept" clears the dialog and the installer churns for a few seconds and then reproposes the update advice again.
This goes on until I "Decline" and the installer launches but doesn't find the product that I'm trying to install (which is presumably in the 4.5 version)
Hmm - so you are able to successfully install and launch WebPI v4.5 but when you click on the link to install, you are STILL prompted to install WebPI v4.5?

I launch WebPI v4.0 which pops up a dialog advising me of the update to 4.5 (shown below), I accept the update and it returns to the WebPI installer for a few seconds and the pops up the same dialog again
Got it - ok, can you grab the wpilauncher.log file from %localappdata%\microsoft\web platform installer and post it here? The launcher is what executes after you click the I Accept button above and it seems to be failing to download the 4.5 MSI

WPI 4.5 Installation Loop
Feb 19, 2013 12:03 PM|LINK
Hi,
whilst trying to install "ASP.NET and Web Tools 2012.2" the installer advises me of an updated WPI installer version 4.5
Clicking "I Accept" clears the dialog and the installer churns for a few seconds and then reproposes the update advice again.
This goes on until I "Decline" and the installer launches but doesn't find the product that I'm trying to install (which is presumably in the 4.5 version)
Thanks for any help you can provide.
here is the log:

Why not try to download the WPI seprately, then install your ASP.NET and Web Tools '12? You can get WPI 4.5 from here.

Thanks for the reply,
I tried that but it I get the same problem. It seems to be a problem with updating the installer.

Seems to be a possible bug, referenced here in this post. Maybe give it a shot?

Can you try this:
1) Download this file:
http://download.microsoft.com/download/8/C/5/8C5EEDC7-3D72-4BB6-A55E-37F3977CD892/wpilauncher.exe
Check the file version - if it's 7.0.1863 then you are getting the right one
2) Download one of these files:
http://download.microsoft.com/download/7/0/4/704CEB4C-9F42-4962-A2B0-5C84B0682C7A/WebPlatformInstaller_amd64_en-US.msi
http://download.microsoft.com/download/7/0/4/704CEB4C-9F42-4962-A2B0-5C84B0682C7A/WebPlatformInstaller_x86_en-US.msi
Check the file version - we are also looking for 7.0.1863
If you are getting 1863 for everything, then for now please run the appropriate MSI to upgrade you
Thanks
