Microsoft Visual C++ 2013 Redistributable Package (x86) install fails

I am trying to install some Dymo label maker software. As part of the install it installs both Microsoft Visual C++ 2013 Redistributable Package (x86) and " Microsoft Visual C++ 2013 Redistributable Package (x64).

For some reason each time it tries to install Microsoft Visual C++ 2013 Redistributable Package (x86) I get the error message-




I have tried installing several times and each time get this same message. I also tried a clean boot to install. Same thing. Can someone help?

 

Microsoft Visual C++ 2013 Redistributable Package (x86) install fails

The software is buggy. If later versions of MS Visual C++ runtimes are installed it fails to detect them and tries to install earlier versions which breaks those MS Visual C++ runtime installations.








Allowing the install to continue doesn't allow those runtimes to install (because you can't install an earlier version over a later version) and it breaks the already installed versions. (They now show as 0 bytes)





It does actually install this:





I cannot test to see if the program will run (I suspect that it won't work anyway) as I don't have MS Office.

Suggest:

Remove those two VC++ Runtime versions if they already exist and reboot. Then try running the Dymo installer and see if it will install the earlier versions of VC++
