JTCS new Windows 10 installation

[Basson]

Hi all

Finally upgraded from old Windows XP SP3 PC, to new Windows 10 PC.  New SSHD and old HD in same PC.

Uninstalled / deleted everything CS I could find from both HD's. 

Fresh installation to primary SSHD from JTCS disc  v.1.0 . 
Followed directly by installation  v 2.02 update.
C/matrixgames/JTCS/...

Menu screen opens but anything from there doesn't respond. Tried opening from WF, EF, RS .exe files directly.
Error: " application failed to start because side-by-side configuration incorrect ".

Any ideas what this means; fix?  Any suggestions greatly appreciated

Thanks

Hi John 

For the life of me cant remember how I fixed it ! Trawled the Matrix CS forum and found this fix which looked familiar.
You have to install the Microsoft Visual C ++ 2008 Redistributable Package ( correct version for your system architecture ie 32 vs 64 bit) . The detail escapes me, but I’m pretty sure this was the fix.
Hope this puts you on the right track!

I recently came across this issue. What solved the problem for me was the " Microsoft Visual C ++ 2008 redistributable", the 32bit version. Even if your machine (like all current machines) is 64 bit, you need the 32bit version cause the game was built that way. Thanks Basson for the tip.

I need the 2008 redistributable 32 bit can't find at microsoft says no longer supported?

Try this. The x86 version should work.

Alas, that is unlikely.
