daz studio can't install

muwawya

I was using DAZStudio 4.22 for a long time and everything was fine, but today I opened the computer and I couldn't open the program, this error appears to me

So I deleted the program completely and downloaded DAZStudio 4.23, in the installation paragraph it stopped at this step

Then I tried to install it through DIM, DIM writes a download error when it reaches about 90%

 

Can you please help me solve the problem?

Is there enough disc space? Have you run a malware scan (the errors are both related to the Microsoft Visual c++ libraries). It is also, I suppose, possible soem other application has installed bad copies in a way that prevents the DS installer from updating them.

Go to Apps/Features in Control Panel, filter by C++, see if you can find any other version of library packages... better paste a screenshot.

There are almost 100 G free, I checked for viruses, none., There are already c++ programs out there... a lot of them, should I delete any of them?

Okay, if so, I suggest you try :

1) Completely uninstall Daz Studio in DIM first;
2) Uninstall the last two packages in your screenshot (ss1) if they're still there after you uninstall Daz Studio.
3) Restart your PC. Then reinstall Daz Studio in DIM.

See if it works.

Thank you very much for your help!! I deleted C++ 2022 and restarted the computer and the error is still there, then I deleted all C++ Redistributable Package and the error is still there ( daz reinstalls them but I still can't open it)

Finally, I deleted MSVCR100.dll and MSVCP100.dll from c:\windows\system32 and reinstalled the program (through the exe file), no error appeared during the installation and I was able to open it smoothly!!! Hurray!

Great！The files seemed very stubborn.
