Installation failure RRS feed

  • Question

  • While attempting to install the 2010 Visual C++ software provided by a game (Assassin's Creed: Unity), the installation almost immediately failed. I have attempted restarting, fixing my DirectX, fixing my .Net framework, ensured it had admin privileges,  and even tried a partial system restore to fix the problem, but it still continues. Any ideas?

    OS Version = 6.2.9200, Platform 2
    OS Description = Future OS - x64 
    CommandLine = c:\412a035b3b8f86e7d5dc\Setup.exe 
    TimeZone = Eastern Daylight Time
    Initial LCID = 1033
    Using Simultaneous Download and Install mechanism
    Operation: Installing
    Package Name = Microsoft Visual C++ 2010 x64 Redistributable Setup
    Package Version = 10.0.40219
    User Experience Data Collection Policy: UserControlled
    Number of applicable items: 3
    MSI (c:\412a035b3b8f86e7d5dc\vc_red.msi) Installation failed. Msi Log: Microsoft Visual C++ 2010 x64 Redistributable Setup_20150715_173854647-MSI_vc_red.msi.txt

  • Make sure you're logged on as local admin, otherwise you may need to repair the operating system. I'd ask over here.

  • Hi SamMarshall1,

    It is better that ask a question to the game official website.

    It seems that you fails to install Microsoft Visual C++ 2010 x64 Redistributable. Where do you download it? Maybe here?
