SketchUp 2017 fails to install C++

Upon trying to upgrade my current installation of SketchUp 2016 to your new version, it fails to install the Visual C++ “14” Runtime Libraries (x64). I am a .Net developer an run Visual Studio 2015 enterprise and Visual Studio 15 (the upcoming release), so have the latest version of this installed already.

The error I get is:

Component Visual C++ “14” Runtime Libraries (x64) has failed to install with the following error message:
"Another version of this product is already installed. Installation of this version cannot continue. To configure or remove the existing version of this product, use Add/Remove Programs on the Control Panel. "

The following components failed to install:

  • Visual C++ “14” Runtime Libraries (x64)

See the setup log file located at ‘C:\Users\allan\AppData\Local\Temp\VSDC36A.tmp\install.log’ for more information.

and the error in the log file:

I tried running the CheckUp application to and that failed my graphics card saying it has too little RAM. Really? I run high end racing simulation on 3 monitor in full 3D at 144Mhz. The NVidia system information is reporting 12256MB total available graphics memory.

Hi Allan,

I’m very sorry you are having trouble with the install. Microsoft threw us a few curves this year, and it has caused some trouble in our installer. Thanks for reporting your issue with such detail.

Could you please check in Add/Remove programs and provide the version numbers of any of your Microsoft Visual C++ Redistributables (for example, “14.0.24215”)? Could you also give the information in Visual Studio’s Help->About dialog? A screenshot would be great.

Thanks very much for your help – we’re trying to resolve this issue as quickly as possible, but are having difficulty reproducing it.

Bill

I’ve the same or similar problem:

Component Visual C++ “14” Runtime Libraries (x64) has failed to install with the following error message:
"Another version of this product is already installed. Installation of this version cannot continue. To configure or remove the existing version of this product, use Add/Remove Programs on the Control Panel. "

The following components failed to install:

  • Visual C++ “14” Runtime Libraries (x64)

See the setup log file located at ‘C:\Users\kiero\AppData\Local\Temp\VSD3E7.tmp\install.log’ for more information.

I seem to have a newer version… but, the installer can’t deal with it.

Having said that, I’ve managed to get it to install by using 7Zip to extract the installation files, and manually running the .msi file.

install explicitly with the standalone MS setup routine linked one post above and run the SU setup again (by “right-clicking > Run as Admin…”).

I ran that update but it reported that the update was already installed. I ran the install again as administrator and got the same error that the install had timed out. What do I do now?

Still no solution for SU 2017 C++ install failures after two weeks since last post?

I tried the C++ download install from Microsoft / Run as Admin – same "An error occurred while installing system components for Sketchup Pro 2017-64-bit…

I just purchased sketchup pro 2017 and I can’t install it in my PC with windows 7. I know you mentioned in your response to one of the threads about how Microsoft gave you problems this year but I need to know what can be done to fix this. I am not a computer savvy person and don’t want to spend extra having someone repair it for me. My PC works perfectly on all programs except for sketchup. Pls contact me ASAP as I am already out of options but to refund the purchase.

Thanks.

As a Pro user, you can get direct technical support…

The support program Checkup was released with SU17. It checks if your computer can run SU17. Did you try it?

As some changes to the registry is done, you must r-click on SU installer and choose Run as administrator. 2017 not launching has supportive links on updating graphic drivers, as SU17 requires such drivers to support OpenGL 3.0. Also some MS component need to be updated. Usually the installer will detect and install missing components, but if that doesn’t happen, you can install those components separately from Microsoft Update.

This is what I did too, just go for "Extract … here and you get the msi out of the self extracting exe file. Then you can install Sketchup from the msi without the need of installing the old VC++ redist package.

Can confirm.

I have VS2017 installed and was initially frustrated and then finally decided to look further; saw this and used 7zip to extract SketchUpMake-en-x64.exe into a directory and finally used the *.msi installer with success!

Kudos and have a great new year!

Thanx this works 100%. I Extracted sketchup.exe file using winRaR and got a .msi file. Then installed the .msi file and it worked!! :slight_smile:

To install successfully, follow these steps:

  1. Uninstall Visual C++ version 14
  2. Then reinstall the Sketchup

Confirm. I found the sketchup* .msi in the temp folder and cut it from there. Something is wrong with the installer offered on sketchup homepage. It gives the Visual C++ 2014 Runtime invitation but windows does not let that as it is already installed. (win 10 x64 home). People should use the .msi file. it just works.

You just saved me!! Thanks!

I have just tried to install sketchup pro 2018. It gave me the same above error. I just tried to unistall the programs and window to me there are not on the computer. I also tried to install the program and it would not install. I am under a deadline and need this to run. it is not my choice program and i have a midterm project due tuesday. please help me to get sketchup installed. I just got my computer back today after some major problems.

Thank you,

Leo

Olá Galera, eu consegui resolver esse problema na Hora da Instalação :slight_smile:


Vai em programas e recursos (basta pesquisar na barra de inicio) e desinstala, vai aparecer que está instalado o C++ 2015 ou 2017…mas o programa quer saber a versão, um pouco mais pra direita vai ter a versão, 14.0… desinstalei as versões que apareciam o 14, e reinstalei pelo próprio instalador do skp
