Visual Studio 2017 can't install Resharper ultimate

I have visual studio 2017 professional installed.

I installed Resharper Ultimate (as admin) and it said completed successfully, however there is no Resharper menu item in VS, and it's not found under Tools -> Options.

I have licenses for both.

I tried completely uninstalling Visual Studio and reinstalling, but still same result.

Edit: Resharper Ultimate is visible in the Installed Extensions and Updates menu, but nowhere else.

Anything else I could try?

If anyone has this issue, I found the solution in the comments here:

https://youtrack.jetbrains.com/issue/RSRP-465919#comment=27-2402687

I had to delete %LocalAppData%\Microsoft\VisualStudio\15.0_{some ID}\privateregistry.bin and privateregistry.user.bin file, and then run repair on Resharper installer.
