windows update says it needs to install kb2538242

What in the world is going on? If 3 other people on similar set up gaming pc's all downloaded the installer and had no issue, what else could it be? I'm about to try deleting all my C++'s and attempting one last go at it.

Kind of become stubborn about fixing this, mostly because it makes no sense to me and I'd like to get to the bottom of it. Seems like this IS in fact a problem for many others, but can't seem to find a solution to work. Spent too many hours with them remote'ing into my compie to check on things and try to solve. I tried contacting two different people for help on Microsoft's help and support chat. Please refer to Help and Support for more information. An error occurred during the installation of the assembly ' ='win32'.version='7.42'.publicKeyToken='1fc8b3b9a1e183b'.processorArchitecture='x86''. That is when the error 1935 comes up as so:Įrror 1935.

Grabbed it straight off Microsoft's site. Recommended by some forum posts and research to try to manually install 2005 C++ stuff. It looks like I have 2008 and onward C++'s installed just fine. It begins to act like it's installing okay. Requirement, Microsoft Visual C++ 2005 SP1 Redistributable MFC Security Update KB2538242(x86).Įvery time I run as admin on the installer, it pops up saying it's required to have this particular version of C++, so fine, I click install.

I am stuck at trying to get past the silly 2005 C++ Redistributable file requirement as part of the InstallShield Wizard, that prompts me to install as it comes up in a little box: On windows 10 - several others have been able to install the BnS lite installer and move onto updating the game launcher.
