Environment
GWAVA 5 Windows 2008 R2
Situation
When I am installing GWAVA5 on Windows 2008 R2 I get a message that says "The Microsoft VC++ Redistributable package must be installed before installation can continue".
Resolution
When the message "The Microsoft VC++ Redistributable package must be installed before installation can continue" appears on the screen follow the steps below.
1) Click the "Ok" button on the message (This will start an automatic install of VC++ Redistributable).
2) Go through the installation of the VC++ package.
3) When the installation of the VC++ package is complete click the "Finish" button.
After clicking the "Finish" button on the VC++ installation the GWAVA 5 installation will continue and finish as normal.
