Upgrade of oneAPI Base Toolkit, v.2025.2 hanging up

jeff_app — Mon, 18 Aug 2025 17:46:44 GMT

I just tried to upgrade my version of oneAPI Base Toolkit, v2025.2 this morning and the installer says finalizing might take 10 minutes or more. The installer is still showing this message after 90 minutes. Any help as to what might be going on.

I was motivated to either upgrade or repair the Base Toolkit because the debugger was not working again (after repairing or upgrading the Base Toolkit I was going to upgrade or repair the oneAPI HPC toolkit as well). Only scalar variables show in the watch and locals windows, not arrays which have been dimensioned and made allocatable through modules. ( I wonder if I am incorrectly using the modules between subroutines. ) But the debugger I find to be finicky, off and on, for no apparent reason. Very frustrating.

Thank you

This can take a while. Sometimes as much as 2 hours or more. I wouldn't think it should take more than 3 hours. The delay is due to VS contacting MS to download and install VS specific patches.

The HPC toolkit has the debugger as well. In the past, one needed base kit AND hpc kit. These days the HPC kit includes all that you probably need. If you don't need intel C++ and some other things, you might try the Fortran Essentials kit which has most of the tools you might want or need without all the components in Base and HPC kits: https://www.intel.com/content/www/us/en/docs/oneapi/installation-guide-windows/2025-0/intel-fortran-essentials.html
