AutoCAD installation failing

Anonymous

Regardless of the version, 2012-2015 of all autodesk programs refuse to download.

 

A popup comes up after about 10 seconds and says it failed.

Install	Microsoft Visual C++ 2010 Redistributable (x86)	Failed	Installation aborted, Result=1603

 Your product is failing to install because the prerequiste program required by the installer is failing prior to the installation of your Autodesk software.

If the prerequisite program already exists on your computer, it is likely newer than the one the Autodesk installer is attempting to install. Please uninstall the prerequisite program causing the issue and run your installer again.

For more information about this process, please see my KB link here:

If the prerequisite is not already installed and installation still fails, then you may need to make an advanced edit to the setup.ini file to ignore the error. Please make sure you manually install the prerequisite file from Microsoft and then modify the setup.ini file accordingly.

Good Luck!

Uh... my error log doesn't say any of that.

This is copied directly from your installation log:

 

Install	Microsoft Visual C++ 2010 Redistributable (x86)	Failed	Installation aborted, Result=1603

 It is failing on the prerequisite install.  I provided multiple solutions for this exact problem in the links of my original reply.

 

Thanks.
