Visual C++ Installer and Uninstaller do not initialize
-
Hello,
I have been trying to install an application that requires Visual C++ visual 2013. It opens up the installer for Visual C++, but the installer just says 'Initializing...' and does nothing for about 20 minutes. At which point it says 'Setup Failed' and asks me to fix the issue (why I'm here) and gives me an 'error log'. When I clicked on it, it gave me this.

I found an installer for the 2010 version and ran it to see if the problem was related to the Application, my logic being that if a 2010 version from Microsoft site cannot install then it is not to do with the Application.
But when I ran the installer, it said that it could detect a newer version on the machine.
Looking my installed programs, I can see the 2013 version. I tried uninstalling them, but the uninstaller gets stuck on initializing the same way it does when installing.
I have spent a long time looking for anyone who has had similar symptoms but have only found cases that at least produce error messages. Also, if this post is in the wrong forum them by all means move it. I've never have to post as most problems have been previously solved by others but I really am reaching the end here.
If anyone needs more information I can provide I will, or if anyone could point me towards other threads that could help. I've likely come across them already, but I am a mere human. I might have missed some.
Thanks in advance

Hi British Tea,
The problem seems tell us you are trying to install VC++ Redistributable Packages for Visual Studio 2013
http://www.microsoft.com/en-hk/download/details.aspx?id=40784
And it failed to install. Then you searched and found you have already had it but cannot removed it.
Please manually download it from the site I linked and then use the repair option first.
Also make sure your OS is up to date. 0x80070003 error from my exprience is just trying to tell us file is missing and let's try if a healthy insaller can fix this issue.
By the way, does this issue reproducable in other machines?
Regards,
Barry

Hi Barry,
I ran an error check on the C drive this morning. It appears that I already had the '(x64)' version but not the (x86) which I needed. The installation of the (x86) version obtained from your link installed perfectly, and the Application is now running fine.
Thank you very much for your help! It is much appreciated.
Regards
Jake
