Hi, I recently tried installing Sony Vegas Pro 16 and the installer shows an error after "installing" the files. ERROR: -2147163964. I've tried reinstalling the Microsoft Visual C++ Redistributable Packages (2017, 2010). The installer is running Build 248. Please help

Best regards,

A few ideas that may work, may not.

#1. Enable TrustedInstaller ("Windows Modules Installer") in your Services.msc. If it's already enabled or set to Manual, try Starting it.

#2. Be sure you are running the setup as Admin. Right click on it and choose Run as Admin.

#3. See Lylou's answer about "Super Administrator" on the link provided above: http://www.sonyvegas.co.uk/error-2147163964-getlasterror5-during-install/ Be sure to disable it when done (whether it works or not).

Better instructions: https://www.thewindowsclub.com/activate-windows-super-administrator-account
Read all of it beforehand.

#4. Another potential answer: https://www.reddit.com/r/SonyVegas/comments/3xm487/fix_for_sfppack1_x64dll_install_error/

Where did you get it from is it a download or a disc install?

Sounds like your registry may be corrupt. You may need to rebuild it. Instructions:

Hi, I've tried what both websites have said. And none of them has worked. I tried downloading regsofts registry repair and I scanned and fixed the registry but I restarted and the error has not been fixed. I've also tried installing adobe premiere and that doesn't want to install either.

Can you try installing under a different user account on your machine? I have a feeling maybe your profile is corrrupt.

I'm not sure about the account being corrupt as it is not a microsoft account. But I'll give it a try

I really don't know to be honest I've tried reinstalling the C++ packs before resorting to this website and nothing.

Did you fully remove the old ones before reinstalling?

I didn't go into the appdata for example and delete the remainder of it from their just using ccleaner to uninstall it.
