Umm hello again everyone, I feel to re-open this thread as I have a similar issue (again) but with different file this time. My previous problem was about installation failed every time W3D Launcher tries to install "msvc-2013.zip", well it got solved nicely as I try the given feedback here. However now it becomes installation failed when installing "msvc-2017.zip" I tried the previous steps but to no resolve for this issue. I think....this might be caused by me running an old OS; Vista Home Premium SP2 64-bit. I hope anyone know a workaround about this (again) XD Cheers~

Ah I see, thanks for the feedback Jeod! I am now copying the registry code to notepad and will save it as .reg file. Quick question tho: Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00 <<< Should this be copied as well? or just starting from: [HKEY_LOCAL_so on] [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\W3D Hub\games\apb-release] "InstalledVersion"="3.1.5.0" "InstallDir"="D:\\W3D Hub\\games\\apb-release" "InstallPath"="D:\\W3D Hub\\games\\apb-release\\game.exe"

Hi there, I've checked my Programs & Features list and I found both (x86) and (x64) version of Microsoft Visual C++ 2013 Redistributable. I had recently tried downloading the installation files from your given link. There are 3 files: "vcredist_arm.exe", "vcredist_x64.exe", and "vcredist_x86.exe" *Here are what happens as I try to fix my Visual C++ 2013: 1. The vcredist_arm.exe file is unable to be opened / run as it gives a message that it is not a correct 32-bit application(?) 2. The "vcredist_x86.exe" which I believe is the 32-bit version of Visual C++ 2013 is unable to be installed as it appears to partially installs but stopped as "Access Denied" message pops up. 3. The last file "vcredist_x86.exe" which I believe the 64-bit version runs fine. I'm able to choose whether to repair or uninstall. However I've tried repair, then uninstall and fresh reinstallation but the W3D Launcher installation of RA: APB fails on the same spot every time. The "msvc-2013.zip" part. 4. Oh and yes I've set W3D Launcher to be run as Admin, also looking into firewall and antivirus to give it permission just in case. I also post my Program & Features panel in hope for better information provided to the team.

Why thank you kind sir, altho it's just a little search work and that sometimes I didn't do it at all lol . Would look forward for a fix as for now my only means to get the RA: APB running is: 1. Copying the "apb-release" folder from "G:\Program Files (x86)\W3D Hub\games" which contains the installed game from my 2nd computer that installs and able to play it without issue. 2. Paste the copied apb-release folder in same directory but on my PC that has the problem. 3. The game now runs and playable by launching it from the game.exe inside the copied folder. However not possible from the launcher, as it identifies that the game is not yet installed *(I've uploaded a photo showing it). 4. Well...game runs and playable and I will say won't complain much about it (Top notch work lads, keep up! ). 5. However one thing that bugs me is that I didn't touch the video settings as I read in game notification that changing some settings from within the game could give undesirable impact on the gameplay..something with LOD, etc. It says that to only fiddle with the graphic settings from the W3D Launcher before running the game, which is...unable to be done since the option button is not even clicabkle for me. Other than that I can say my problem is solved (big partially of it lol). Hopefully my issue could be overlooked to avoid any other user from having same issue like me. Kindly thank you for the support, Best regards and cheers!

Ah I see, thanks for the quick and informative feedback I'll look on my Visual C thingie on my PC. See if there's corrupted installation and maybe getting a latest updated version of it or sort could fix it. As for the errors.txt this is what I've found from: C:\Users\[My Username]\Documents\W3D Hub\Launcher *(posted with this reply) errors.log

Hi everyone, I have this Installation Failed problem whenever W3D Launcher has finished downloading the files and then installation always fails when installing "msvc-2013.zip". It won't go anywhere beyond that point. *Here's what I've tried to fix the problem but to no avail: - I have cleared the APB cache, deleting everything in "C:\ProgramData\W3D Hub\Launcher\package-cache\games\apb" - Re-downloading all Red Alert APB files through the launcher, no download problems. - Download finished smoothly but installation fails every time when installing the "msvc-2013.zip" - I've repeated the steps above for 4 (four) times and still stuck on failing to install the "msvc-2013.zip" Hope anyone knows a workaround for this problem. Kindly thank you for your time and attention lads, best regards
