Visual C++ Redistributable X86 Version Vc_redist.x86.exe

[Venice Sassone]

TheVisual C++ Redistributable installs Microsoft C and C++ (MSVC) runtime libraries. Many applications built using Microsoft C and C++ tools require these libraries. If your app uses those libraries, a Microsoft Visual C++ Redistributable package must be installed on the target system before you install your app. The Redistributable package architecture must match your app's target architecture. The Redistributable version must be at least as recent as the MSVC build toolset used to build your app. We recommend you use the latest Redistributable available for your version of Visual Studio, with some exceptions noted later in this article.

Unlike older versions of Visual Studio, which have infrequent redist updates, the version number isn't listed in the following table for Visual Studio 2015-2022 because the redist is updated frequently. To find the version number of the latest redist, download the redist you're interested in using one of the following links. Then, look at its properties using Windows File Explorer. In the Details pane, the File version contains the version of the redist.

Visual Studio versions since Visual Studio 2015 share the same Redistributable files. For example, any apps built by the Visual Studio 2015, 2017, 2019, or 2022 toolsets can use the latest Microsoft Visual C++ Redistributable. However, the version of the Microsoft Visual C++ Redistributable installed on the machine must be the same or higher than the version of the Visual C++ toolset used to create your application.

Hi

im new on here and new to online recording software. i downloaded audacity to my PC running Windows vista but the program wont open. very frustrating.

I seen a post on here saying you need to download Visual C++ Redistributable for Visual Studio 2015.

i went on there but it has this and i dont know which i should download.

File Name

vc_redist.x64.exe File Size 13.9 MB

I followed the instructions.

downloaded audacity and it said completed.

then i downloaded Visual C++ Redistributable for Visual Studio 2015 and chose the vc_redist.x86.exe File for Win Vista and that also stated completed.

i then rebooted my pc but im still getting those same error messages above.

so frustrating. any ideas whats the problem ?

thanks

Thanks Steve

Finally!.. thats done the trick it opened version 2 2 1 no problem.

now i just need to get my head around it Lol.

When i drag n drop a Wav backing track should i have it in stereo or mono,

and whats the best Project rate Hz ? its set at 48000 at the moment.

lastly when i close the program does it automatically save the project or do i have to save it ?

When i drag n drop a Wav file should i have it in stereo or mono,

and whats the best Project rate Hz ? its set at 48000 at the moment.(does this change the quality ?)

lastly when i close the program does it automatically save the project or do i have to save it ?

forgot to ask,

does this program have vocal effects such as reverb and delay etc as the drop down list

does not allow you to click on them ?

Also how many individual tracks can you record on this program. such as if i have a backing track to sing along to, could i record 20 more tracks along side that backing track ?

Allowing the Redistributable to run, does not make it go away next launch startup. UAC Prompts me every time I launch the game, it prompts just once, but I've done this enough that it's getting on my nerves. I know there are users with shorter tempers that get discouraged from running Steam apps with less hassle.

To answer the question in the thread title: I don't know. It definitely seems to happen every time (and there's no compelling reason for them to try to make it happen each time), but I cannot tell you whether you will be annoyed by it.

I'm guessing that both versions of the launcher (Steam and non-Steam) do it, but that the non-Steam launcher already has UAC privileges (when you run it), so the redist package inherits them and doesn't put up a UAC prompt of its own. It probably happens during one of the two passes that the yellow bar makes.

Anyway, I tried an experiment. The goal, ultimately, is to not see the thing pop up *every* time the game is launched, and to not distrupt other applications on the PC. The *solution* is to open the directory inside Steam (normally "C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\Star Wars - The Old Republic" if everything is stored in its normal location) and rename the file "VC_redist.x86.exe" to something else (I added an "x" at the beginning of "exe", giving "VC_redist.x86.xexe"). The game seems quite content to start up and run without the file, and I was able to log in to a character and play normally (OK, I only played a few moments, but ...).

Yeah, DO NOT UNINSTALL this from your computer. It will wreak havoc with other programs. I did a ton of research on this and found the following to be the best recourse, for now. Well see what happens after the next patch.

If the signature is still numerically correct (it is, or Windows would give a *different* prompt when the launcher tries to run it), it should be *valid*, but the age of the redist suggests that it's an old version, and thus may contain exploitable bugs that have been fixed in later versions of the redist. (And it's *Microsoft's* certificate, which implies that SWTOR should include a more up-to-date version of the file, but it's definitely a non-critical error.)

There is an issue with some versions the 2017 redistributable that block proper installation of the 2015 and 2015-2019 packages. That would fit the issue: Swtor tries to install the newer version, but that fails. The game still runs because the dll files are there, but the next time Swtor starts it tries to install again.

Did you install to C:\Program Files or C:\Program Files (x86)? Those are protected by Windows, and programs that need to write to their Installation folder (logfiles and updates in case of Swtor) need higher user permissions.

I ran into that folder issue years ago with another application, so I've installed all applications since then into a separate folder (created by me.) SWTOR folder has always been in that custom parent folder. I changed the privileges of Launcher.Exe and it is continuing to show me the UAC (which lists the launcher as trying to make a change.) I changed it for current user as well as for all users with identical results.

This method seems to work, however now I'm receiving a red message in the top of the launcher that sais "Was not able to launch the game", but this doesn't seem to cause any problems in launching the game. So far this method is good and easy.

I got that message but I thought it was some error after the delay of the feb16 maintenance? Or maybe I only noticed that after the feb16 maintenance notice was gone. But I don't mind as long as the game runs anyway lol

Take Note: Do not mess with the (x64) version which is right above the (x86) version. The UAC prompt, at least for me, always mentions the x86 version so that is the version we should be messing with.

FYI - I was getting the UAC prompt to install the redistributable AND I was getting line down the right side of the screen I couldn't get rid of when I was in the game. After I performed the steps above the line is now gone and I don't get the UAC prompt.

Download patch 6.2.1 yesterday, I had never had this popup before. So it did not fixed it, I did this solution and it worked though, even if I get the "unable to launch the game message", was still able to launch the game and I'll see if anything bad happens while I'm playing. Quite annoying.

i just want to pop in because i was having this C++ redistributable popup thingy as well. Did the "rename" of the item in question and haven't had any issue since. As for those saying the red text now pops up in the top of the launcher, that was occurring to me before i even did the rename fix. that began shortly after the whole permissions thing kept coming up. but it's not affecting the game, so that's a plus.
