-After you [download the bootstrapper](#step-1---download-the-visual-studio-bootstrapper), run it to install the latest version of the Visual Studio Installer. The installer is a separate program that provides everything you need to both install and customize Visual Studio. After you install the Visual Studio Installer, you can use it to download installation packages. To download a local installation package, select the **Download all, then install** option in the dropdown at the bottom of the **Workloads** tab of the Visual Studio Installer. The purpose of this feature is to download the Visual Studio packages in advance on the computer where Visual Studio will eventually be installed. By downloading the packages locally first, you can then safely disconnect from the internet before you install Visual Studio.
