Hello,

I've gotten to the point in the installer where it tries to get Microsoft visual c++ 2012 redistributable. I have downloaded the package from Microsoft and separately installed it in the playonlinux vm. The package shows up in the add/remove programs list. But, the installer can't seem to find it.

I suggest to add: wininet, msxml6.

Hi, sorry about the broken link. I have updated the "About screenshot" in my main post. I have added the two components you recommended. Looking at the application setup logs, it seems like the installer is crashing and printing this:

 

SysUtil::getMediaTypeWithWMI: Could not connect to WMI namespace.

I think that the hope to make this software run on POL/POM is very low. Even the pros of Wine at Codeweaver have quite bad reports.
