  • Cannot install streets & trips 2011, error: Microsoft streets & trips 2011 requires the installation of Microsoft Visual C++ 2010 Redistributable

    Original title: streets & trips with GPS Locator 2011 install problem

    I try to install Microsoft streets & trips with GPS DVD positioner 2011 and it fails at the beginning of the installation.  My environment is a workbook of Elite HP 8560w running teacher of Win 7 and Microsoft Office 2010 Professional (8 GB memory, 500 GB disk space).

    I want to emphasize that I will not be plugging the GPS stick on a USB port until the installation process or the installed software requires it.  The installation begins with the display:

    "Microsoft streets & trips 2011 requires the installation of the Microsoft Visual C++ 2010 redistributable. To install the component now, click OK. If you want to stop the installation and exit the Setup program, click Cancel. »

    I clicked on OK to proceed with the installation. Another message was displayed:

    "Please wait while the Microsoft Visual C++ 2010 redistributable is installed."

    After a fairly short period of time, a final message was posted:

    "One of the prerequisite components failed to install. The installation program will now exist. »

    I check that my list of installed programs in programs and features, and Microsoft Visual C++ 2010 is already installed, listed as:

    Microsoft Visual C++ 2010 x 64 Redistributable - Version 10.0.40219
    Microsoft Visual C++ 2010 x 86 Redistributable - Version 10.0.40219

    I tried to start the installation several times but still, he fails and ends at the same point.

    What must I do to properly install Microsoft streets & trips with GPS Locator 2011?

    William Allen

    I thank all participants for their contributions on my problem captioned.

    As I mentioned in one of my previous answers for myself, for me, this issue is now closed.  Microsoft support has accepted my MS Streets & Trips w / GPS for a full refund.  At least, support staff, that I spoke acknowledged that ST2011 was known to be incompatible with W7P SP1 and they offered a full refund.

    A number of responses I received offered possible solutions that I had tried and has said on this subject in previous updates (for example, to run the installation of the data .msi on the installation CD).  Then I still had possession of the ST2011 software, I don't was not informed of Microsoft resetting tool mentioned by Mike L. Robbins, so I can't say if that than me by my installation problems.  Be it, everything is sent to Microsoft.

    I can only hope that if Microsoft releases streets & trips 2012 which does not inherit problems, I lived.  In my view, this thread can be closed now.  Thanks to you all.

    Certainly continue to reply to this topic, if others could benefit from your proposed solutions to ST2011 installed.

    Versions of Windows beyond Windows XP are not entirely compatible with Acrobat 6. The first version of Acrobat that is supported by Windows 7 is Acrobat 8.1 (is no longer licensed by Adobe). The latest version of Acrobat: Acrobat Columbia, six versions more recent than Acrobat 6. You need to upgrade to get all the features of Acrobat.

    Looks like you may have a virus or other malware. Get your updated antivirus program and start safe mode.  Note that some viruses can hide from your normal antivirus program, so you really need to scan mode without failure.  To enter in Safe Mode when you turn on first, press F8 on every seconds until you get the menu, and then select Safe Mode.  Then run a complete system scan.

    If that suits him fine. If this is not the case, use system restore to go back to an earlier date at the beginning of the problem.  To run system restore, click Start-> programs-> Accessories-> System Tools-> system restore.  Click on the box that says show more restore points.
    You can check the corrupted system files.  Open an administrator command prompt and run SFC if the above does not help. Click START, and then type sfc in the search box, right-click to SFC. EXE, then click on run as administrator. Then from the command prompt, type sfc/scannow.
    Finally if all else fails, you can look at the rather cryptic system event log.  To make, click Start-> Control Panel-> administration-> event viewer tools.  Once in Event Viewer system log-click and scroll entries looking for these "error" with indicator see if you can find guidance on where the problem may be.

  • I lost the disc to restore my phone and it is no longer supported by the manufacturer. Can I use the installation disc for my desktop with my laptop serial number?

    I lost my laptop computer restore disc and it is no longer supported by the manufacturer. Can I use the installation disc for my desktop with my laptop serial number?

    My title says it all. I have an old HP laptop that they do not send to restore the disc more (I don't know yet I had one; his old laptop from my brother) and I have an installation disc for my new PC. I have a Windows XP Home edition SP2 installation disc. However, as the hard drive of my laptop broke down, I don't know what version of windows it was. I think it should have been an OEM version and the sticker says it was Windows XP Home Edition.

    Now, anyway I tried to install my installation on laptop computer disc, offering series of laptop computer but now it asks me to activate. Will it work if I activate it?

    Thank you

    Unless you are lucky enough to know someone who has a generic OEM drive, which you can borrow, I don't see a practical solution for you.  I advise you to spend the money to buy one, even if you could find one to buy from a reliable source (not eBay!).  Although a generic OEM disc should work with your product key, there is no guarantee that it will work with your product key.

    If your laptop can be retrieved through a restore partition, and you can't borrow a disc that will work with your product key, then you have pretty much exhausted all reasonable or practical options.

    I finally did! I borrowed a copy of a generic OEM drive, through activation and it is!

    Thank you much for the help...

    Now I've done could you help me more? Say now, I returned the drive OEM back (don't want to make an illegal copy) and want to be able to use my current system installed to generate a system disk that will allow me to avoid all the problems I've had up to now. What would you recommend? I've read a few articles on other forums (I did some research!) but is a little confusing. I hope you could help.

    Thank you

    Since you posted your product key on a public web site, it has now
    almost certainly already been copied and used by hackers all over the
    world. This means that Microsoft disables this button so it can't be
    more used.
     
    Please, in the future, never publish your key like this.
     
    But leaving that aside for the moment, to answer your question, if
    It is a key to the retail sale, Yes, you can use it on another computer. If it's a
    OEM key, no you can't.

    Hi golfnut11,

    1. you are using a laptop?

    2. you remember to make changes to the computer priro to this question?

    Step 1:

    If you use a laptop, check if the FN key is enabled. If so, then try to turn it off and check.

    Step 2:

    You can also try to check the keyboard on the screen and if the problem occurs or not.

Thanks Martin

    A single user license for activating facilities on both machines. A license of elements allows for each platform in many cases (recently not the case from what I've seen).  If you have the disc, see if it contains the Mac installation files... If not then you should be able to install them via download as well.  I can't answer with any certainty to the last question because it depends on the previous question.  Personally, I wouldn't let an inexpensive piece of software not dictate a decision to purchase expensive equipment.

    How can I install a scanner gun to my computer without the installation CD

    Scanner (Canoscan 3000 ex)

    I always throw installation CD in the trash as soon as I open all newly purchased equipment.  They are often already overwhelmed.  Go to the website of manufacturers, their support/downloads/drivers section. First update the firmware (if any), then download and install the latest driver.

    For your specific case, a Canon Canoscan 3000ex operation under Windows 7, the driver is already built into Windows. Just to plug the scanner, turn on and Windows should detect it and automatically installs the driver.  Driver updates may be available via Windows Update.
