Error message while installing Sage50 2017 regarding Microsoft Visual C++

Posted By

I am installing Sage50 2017 as I am upgrading our system from version 2013. I have installed version 2015 and that install went smoothly.

As I began the 2017 installation, I got the following error message, "The installation of Microsoft Visual C++ 2015 Redistributable Package (x86) appears tohave failed. Do you want to continue the installation?"

I have halted the install of 2017 until I find out what the issue is. Anyone have any ideas or suggestions?

Thanks,

Kristine

    Hi,

    You'd have to ask Sage software.

    Possibly there is a newer version of that Microsoft Visual Studio 'redistributable' already installed, and the Sage software will work properly

    Possibly it wasn't installed, and the install attempt partially failed, and the Sage software won't work properly, or it might.

    Generally, if a .NET component isn't the correct one you'll get an error message at runtime that it isn't there. Modern software doesn't usually grab the wrong component / wrong version of the component, and then crash.
