Unable to Initialize Application Due to Missing C++ Driver

I am encountering an issue where an application fails to initialize due to a missing C++ driver. Despite following troubleshooting steps, including installing the latest Visual C++ Redistributable package and restarting my computer, the problem persists.

2. Attempt to run the application.
   
3. Receive error message: "Unable to initialize app due to missing C++ driver."
   

Troubleshooting Steps Taken:

1. Ensured the operating system and related software are up to date.
   
2. Installed the latest Visual C++ Redistributable package.
   
3. Restarted the computer.
   
4. Reinstalled the application.

C windows installer folder - Delete?

He can do symbolic link redirection and move the files in it to a different location. *Wink
Better try it out in a virtual of first. Just a suggestion.

Like:
First move everything in c:\windows\installer to d:\installercache
Then delete c:\windows\installer folder
Then type this in command mode as admin
mklink /d c:\windows\installer d:\installercache

Removing those installer files is a bad idea. it might prevent you from updating or uninstalling apps.
