DirectX Redist 2010 9.29.1974 is available to all software users as a free download for Windows 10 PCs but also without a hitch on Windows 7 and Windows 8. Compatibility with this software may vary, but will generally run fine under Microsoft Windows 10, Windows 8, Windows 8.1, Windows 7, Windows Vista and Windows XP on either a 32-bit or 64. On x32 bit machines, without this redistributable our install prompts to install VC 2010 redist. But, on x64 bit machines, we are not getting the prompt from our installer to install VC redist 2010. My question is, How are companies deploying VC 2010 redist, –. Thanks a lot PeterJ. Can you also explain what exactly is 'A newer version of Microsoft Visual C 2010 Redistributable has been detected on the machine'. Is it because I have already installed VC 2010 and the distributable embedded in the VC 2010 is newer than independent Redistributable packages? – Bon Dec 13 '12 at 12:40.

Question:
Receiving 'The installation of Microsoft VC Redist 2010 SP1 (x86) has failed. Setup will now exit' message when installing Nero 2015 Platinum on Win 7 machine. Does anyone have a solution for this. Mar 16, 2017 I am trying to package an msi/mst install for Acrobat Pro 11. It was failing and I added the /qf to find out what was happening. The install was looking for Visual C 2010 SP1, so I installed it and the install works fine now. What is perplexing is the file version on our base install shows 10. Thank you Sera. Apologies for not paying better.
You previously posted lists of command line switches to perform silent and unattended installations of the Visual C++ 2005 redistributable and the Visual C++ 2008 redistributable. How can I perform silent and unattended installations of the Visual C++ 2010 redistributable?
Answer:
The Visual C++ 2010 redistributable packages (vcredist_x86.exe, vcredist_x64.exe and vcredist_ia64.exe) support the following command line installation options.
The examples below use the file named vcredist_x86.exe, but you can substitute the x64 or ia64 versions of the EXEs with equivalent command lines to achieve the same behavior for them as well.
Silent install
This option will suppress all UI and perform an install.
<full path>vcredist_x86.exe /q /norestart
For example, if you download vcredist_x86.exe to a folder named c:vc2010redist, then the command line would look like this:
c:vc2010redistvcredist_x86.exe /q /norestart
Unattended install
This option will display a progress dialog (but requires no user interaction) and perform an install.
<full path>vcredist_x86.exe /passive /norestart
For example, if you download vcredist_x86.exe to a folder named c:vc2010redist, then the command line would look like this:
Microsoft Redistributable 2010 Download
c:vc2010redistvcredist_x86.exe /passive /norestart
Silent repair
This option will suppress all UI and perform a repair.
<full path>vcredist_x86.exe /q /repair /norestart
For example, if you download vcredist_x86.exe to a folder named c:vc2010redist, then the command line would look like this:
c:vc2010redistvcredist_x86.exe /q /repair /norestart
Silent uninstall
This option will suppress all UI and perform an uninstall.
Microsoft Vc Redist 2010 Sp1 X64
<full path>vcredist_x86.exe /q /uninstall /norestart
For example, if you download vcredist_x86.exe to a folder named c:vc2010redist, then the command line would look like this:
Microsoft Redist 2010 X86
c:vc2010redistvcredist_x86.exe /q /uninstall /norestart
A note about reboots
Microsoft Redistributable 2010
All of the examples above use the /norestart switch to suppress reboots after the setup process completes. The /norestart switch does not eliminate the need to reboot entirely – it just gives the calling process control over when to schedule the reboot if one is needed due to files being in use during setup. If you run the Visual C++ 2010 redistributable setup and use the /norestart switch, you must check the exit code returned by the setup process and handle it accordingly in the calling process. Here are the possible exit codes:
- Exit code 0 means that setup succeeded and no reboot is needed.
- Exit code 3010 means that setup succeeded and a reboot is needed to complete installation.
- Any other exit code means that setup failed.
