Thank you for clicking my topic! From what I understand, there was some kind of permissions error in the c++ 2008 Windows Redistributable x86 package before a certain date. This may or may not be relevant. Anyway, my problem is that Steam keeps referring me to that package, and I can't find it to uninstall it or repair it. It keeps wanting to find a file called vc_red.msi. I have such a file on my G: drive for some reason, but it's not the correct one, according to the panel. I have downloaded and installed the Windows Redistributable files, the vc_red.msi that it is looking for is the x86 version.
Is there any way I can fix this so that I won't have to see that Steam message looking for vc_red.msi file?
Edit:
I searched techguy but no results come up with vc_red.msi and it thinks that I searched vcredist instead, which is understandable.
