resolved Orbx Central will not install

[Erskine]

This is my first post on any forum, so please bear with me.

Orbx Central V 4.0.33 will not install. I have all five prerequisite software installed. The green bar goes to about 25% and stops. I tried my FTX3 but, it only gets to "paused" on downloads. 

FSX, windows 7 sp1, i5 cpu, 16 gigabytes ram, and, GeForce GTX660 GPU.

 

Central.log is attached.

 

I hope you can help, thank you.

Hello,

it seems that something is preventing Orbx Central from updating.

Please try uninstalling it, using your control panel and then re-installing

from any of the links on the Orbx Direct pages.

Please ensure that the System Requirements are all in place first.

 

System Requirements

Windows

Windows 7 SP1+, Windows 8.1 and Windows 10 are supported. The following components need to be installed for Central to function correctly:

 

• Visual C++ Redistributable for Visual Studio 2015 (x64)

  • https://www.microsoft.com/en-au/download/details.aspx?id=48145

• Microsoft Visual C++ 2015 Redistributable Update 3 RC

hello,

thank you very much for responding to my post. I tried your suggestion and Orbx Central installed and works fine! It's hard to believe sometimes that such a simple solution would work, but I'll take it. I am happy that my first forum post worked so well. Thanks again for your help.
