(Here are the Specs for my laptop that will be running my studio software.)

Hp Envy 17M Touchscreen: intel core i7- Windows 11 / 64-Bit Operating system x64-based processor.

12gb ram / 11.8gb available/usable- I don't use this laptop for much else and very, very seldomly am I ever on it asides for your typical information search and/or YouTube video. I purchased this laptop a few months ago (Brand New) for the purpose of housing my home studio brain software.

I'm sure I'm not the first to see this issue. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

 

 

What would cause Samplitude to not be able to install Microsoft visual? Is the file location that was mentioned below the issue & how do I fix it? The following is a word for word copy of the error message from the Error pop up during installation....
