When running the installer, it forces the Visual C redist to install every time even if it is already installed, and then forces a reboot. For example the redist was installed with the first beta, and when I downloaded the latest installer and ran it, the redist was installed again, and again wanted a reboot. The installer should check to see if this package is already installed.  |

Okay, that is annoying, we will see if the installer allows robust checks.
thanks.

Chrisell,
From my investigation it is difficult to get a robust way to detect if the distribuable are already installed. Microsoft itself recommend to install them every time.
Also, when I install the setup, I don't have to reboot my machine. I don't know why you have to do it.
Until I don't find a robust way to check the presence of the VC distribuable I will let the installer as it is for now. I think it would be risky to skip their installation based on weak checks.
many thanks
