    Hi @Aziz Husain

    You have installed the x86 and x64 Microsoft Visual C++ 2017 Redistributable on your computer, and you cannot install other versions of Visual C++ 2017 Redistributable(x86 or x64).
    If try to install another version of Visual C++ 2017 Redistributable will receive an error: 0x80070666: Another version of this product is already installed.
