I have tried offline installer, the addon manager is exlcuded from anti-virus (windows defender), I have resintalled .net framework service, rebooted. I keep hitting the same issue.

Your 2nd log, shows that all errors happened entirely outside our code, which suggest either antivirus interference, or a problem with .NET or any other Windows library.
