Problems installing Microsoft Visual Studio 2017-2019 Redistributable (x86)

Question

I have installed the Microsoft Visual Studio 2017-2019 Redistributable (x64) without any errors. But once I installed the (x86) I'm receiving this error: 

I have figured maybe my Visual C++ 2017 Redistributable was corrupted as I would always get a much more frequent error message when installing AMD graphics card drivers with the following dialogue message: The feature you are trying to use is on a CD-Rom or other removable disk that is not available. Insert the 'Microsoft Visual C++ 2017 x64 Minimum Runtime - 14.10.25008' Disk and click OK.

Any help that can fix this problem is greatly appreciated.

Here is the log file that I taken after I hit OK on the message box and Cancel.

Hi,

Thank you for writing to Microsoft Community Forums.

I understand that you are trying to install Visual C++ 2017-2019 Redistributable(x86) and you get an error.

Looking at the logs, it seems that 0x80070643 error is evident, which usually links with .NetFramework.

However, I would suggest you to try few steps and see if it helps.

Method 1: Run installation in Hidden Administrator Account.

1. Type in Windows Search CMD. Right click on CMD and select Run as Administered.
2. Copy and paste the command in command prompt: Net user administrator /active:yes
3. Exit from the command prompt and sign out from the current user.
4. Login to the Administrator account and then try installing the package.

Method 2: Re-install .NetFramework and check.

1. Press Windows + R key to launch Run command and Type

appwiz.cpl. 2. When the Programs and Features window comes up, click Turn Windows Features On or Off from the left pane. 3. Then uncheck the .NetFramework from the list and click Ok. 4. Then check the .NetFramework from the list and click Ok.

I would suggest you to post your queries in our MSDN forum, where we have developers participating, who should be able to provide some insights and ideas for this particular query.
