Re: The VC++ runtime redistributable package error 1602/5100

I uninstalled VC ++ 2010 and 2013, but when I want to install vcredist 2010 (from The Sims 4 location) after reboot, it doesn´t finish the installation (look at the picture).

    I suspect you are not rebooting correctly. Click on the Start/Windows button, click the power/shutdown button and then either fully power off or choose restart.

    I have the same problem. I can't install the VC files, because it says it has to wait for another install to complete. There is no other install and rebooting did not fix this problem. Did you fix it?

    Edit: Just after posting this, I fixed the problem by ending "Windows Installer" in the task manager. This made the installation of the vcredist possible and now my sims game works!
