help w/ visual c++ 2008 box at end of install

Post by karmapaladin »

please help!

i've never played vega strike, just successfully installed for first time (both game and openAL install dialogue boxes finished and closed). Still have 1 dialogue box on my screen (which was generated by vega strike install). it says:

microsoft visual c++ 2008 redistributable setup (title bar)

maintenance mode

select one of the options below

repair (checkbox)
repair microsoft visual c++ 2008 redistributable to its original state

uninstall (checkbox)
uninstall microsoft visual c++ 2008 redistributable from this computer

i have to chose 1 checkbox and click next, or i can click cancel

when i go to control panel - add/remove programs (win 7 pro, sp1, 32 bit), i have 2 versions of microsoft visual c++ 2008 redistributable, and 1 version of microsoft visual c++ 2010 redistributable.

so do i choose repair, uninstall or cancel?

First welcome aboard karmapaladin lets try the repair option first as it's the least destructive ;) the current version of the exe thast is in svn was compiled with vs2010 so your microsoft visual c++ 2010 redistributable will be of use later.

Enjoy the Choice :)
