Microsoft Visual C++ 2005 Redistributable (x86)/(x64) Failed - Installation aborted, Result=1619 While installing autodesk 2012 products

Some of my friends are started using Autodesk 2012 products and almost everybody came across the error stated as in the title. In Autodesk forums everybody suggested a clean install.

  But that will me most painful thing when they have other prior versions on Autodesk products.

  After a bit of research i was able to help them out without uninstalling previous versions of Autodesk products. sharing the solution  may help my blog readers...


For all of my friends the Autodesk 2012 products failed because the setup failed to install Microsoft Visual C++ 2005 Redistributable (x86)/(x64).  So i checked in installed programs to find the instances of Microsoft Visual C++ 2005 Redistributable (x86)/(x64) .

   surprisingly there were more that 6-7 instances of the Microsoft Visual C++ 2005/2008 Redistributable (x86)/(x64) . So i decided to uninstall all of them through control panel.

  Once i removed all the instances of Microsoft Visual C++ 2005/2008 Redistributable (x86)/(x64) ,I re-registered msiexec.exe through the below command line options in command prompt.

msiexec.exe -unreg
msiexec.exe -regserver

Restarted the computer and started the installation again, Voila!! Installation finished without any error or warning message. Hope this helps..

  Microsoft Windows 8 developer preview build 8102 32/64 bit is available for download from official Microsoft website.

  Windows 8 is not only the next version of Microsoft's familiar desktop interface, but is also the company's answer to the challenge of tablets too. That’s a difficult pair of challenges to straddle and not everything about the new interface is a success. This is also definitely pre-beta software that needs more development work, but we expected that...


  The good news for businesses is that Windows 8 is still a fully-capable desktop operating system with full compatibility and even more security, visualization and remote access options, but with the touchscreen support so many users want. Most users shouldn’t need a new PC to run it, though they may well want a new one for touch. For some workers, iPads and Android tablets can’t replace a PC; with Windows 8 Microsoft could deliver an option that gives business users the best of both worlds.
