  • There seems to be a bug in the installer: https://developercommunity.visualstudio.com/content/problem/246732/ssdt-1560-installer-the-configuration-registry-key.html – Hennie de Nooijer May 09 '18 at 08:07

The latest version (15.6) of SSDT is incompatible with the latest version (15.7) of Visual Studio 2017. You currently have two choices:

  1. Wait for an updated version of SSDT or VS2017 to be released, or
  2. Completely uninstall VS2017 and install an older version.

If you want to go with option 2, do the following:

  1. Run this command: C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Visual Studio\Installer\resources\app\layout\InstallCleanup.exe -f
  2. Download and install version 15.6.7 of Visual Studio (link to the Community edition)
  3. Download and install SSDT 15.6.0

This info was taken from a post on the Visual Studio Developer Community forum.
