vcredist not being installed
Hi,
On the Redistributables page I have checked the box for "Microsoft Visual C++ 2012 Redistributable Package (x86)". The package has been downloaded and is included in my final exe but it is not installed.
Is there a step/checkbox I'm missing?
Thanks,
Jeff.
The information here also applies to the VS2012 redistributables.

The solution:
Fire up Notepad and make a 2-minute-quick-fix.
In your InstallShield installation directory, find a folder “SetupPrerequisites” and a file “Microsoft Visual C++ 2012 Redistributables Package (x86).prq”
Open the file in Notepad
Remove the text Bits=”1&8243; from all 5 operatingsystemcondition xml-tags. This is the part that tells InstallShield only to match this prerequisite on x86 machines.
Save the file; then recompile your setup
Finish!
