Missing Microsoft Visual C++ Runtime

Postby Puddleglum567 » 19 Dec 2016, 19:33

I used to be able to play FAF with no issues, but recently I've been getting the Missing Microsoft Visual C++ Runtime error on startup, but when I check in my Programs and Features on the control panel, it says I have it. Attached are my logs. I've uninstalled and reinstalled everything, and still no success.

Thanks in advance.

There are many diff. Visual C++ runtimes, you absolutely sure you have the right one? https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/kb/2977003

Also you can try these two client releases if they work for you:
https://github.com/FAForever/client/rel ... .12.0-pre2
https://ci.appveyor.com/api/buildjobs/a ... -win32.msi

Alternatively you can try another client:
https://github.com/FAForever/downlords- ... -alpha.exe
