  1. Every time I open a program with Microsoft C++ I am prompted to Modify setup


    I am trying to use Microsoft C++ 2015-2019 to run a game emulator on my PC. However every time I open the program, I am prompted to modify setup of C++. My only options are to "repair" or "uninstall" I click "repair" it comes up with "setup successful, you must restart your computer before you can use the software". Once I restart my PC and attempt to open the program, I once again prompted with the modify setup tab. If I uninstall and reinstall C++ it still does the same thing.

  2. Update for Microsoft Visual C++ 2012 (KB3119142) getting installed multiple times on Windows 10

    This made the trick

      • In Control Panel, click Uninstall a program in the Programs group.
      • In the programs list, locate Microsoft Visual C++ 2012 Redistributable (X64) - 11.0.61030 or
        Microsoft Visual C++ 2012 Redistributable (X86) - 11.0.61030, depending on your system architecture.
      • Right-click the entry name, and then click Change.
      • In the Modify Setup dialog box, click Repair.
      • After the repair process is completed, restart the computer if you are prompted to do this.
      • And do the update

    Microsoft Visual 2017 C++ msi wont install.

    Hi,

    Software conflicts are one of the possible reasons why this issue is happening. Based on the error message you provided, an older version of Microsoft Visual C++ 2017 is blocking the installation. We suggest uninstalling Microsoft Visual C++ 2017 from the control
    panel before trying to install the new MS Visual 2017. Follow the steps below:

    • Open Control Panel.
    • Click Programs, then click Programs and Features.
    • Locate Microsoft Visual 2017 C++, then click Uninstall.
    After uninstalling the program, try to install Microsoft Visual 2017 C++ again.

    Get back to us with the outcome so we can help you further.
