Did you run "Install Visual C++ Compiler" before or after installing Visual Studio? If you did it after you need to uninstall Visual Studio, then Install Visual C++ compiler, then reinstall Visual Studio.

You didn't answer the question. Did you run "Install Visual C++ Compiler" before or after installing Visual Studio? If you did it after you need to uninstall Visual Studio, then Install Visual C++ compiler, then reinstall Visual Studio.

All of this has been discussed in this thread: Update documentation to support latest version of Visual Studio | Post: 180504 There is one more step I left out. You need to uninstall the existing Visual C++ redistributable: vc_redist.x64.exe /uninstall
Then Install Visual C++ Compiler, and then Visual Studio. Date Time Of Last Edit: 2021-06-04 11:25:59

where to run vc_redist.x64.exe /uninstall this I ran it in CMD but it didn't run. I manually deleted the redistribute packages from "add or remove a program" in windows 10. Even After that same issue.

cd to the folder where vc_redist.x64.exe lives and run it from there at a CMD prompt.

I think vc_redist.x64.exe is not present as I am unable to find it. I looked on https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/answers/questions/220765/location-of-34microsoft-visual-c-redistributable-2.html where I can find it and it was not present. Maybe it is because I deleted it from the "Add or remove program" |

It this point, I would suggest you do a Refresh of Windows (without removing your files) and start with nothing installed. https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/how-to-refresh-reset-or-restore-your-pc-51391d9a-eb0a-84a7-69e4-c2c1fbceb8dd The process does work. I haven't done it in a while, but I would assume it is system related in your case. |
