Thanks, Craig

It was failing on vcredist_x86 and vcredist_x64, because I had newer versions installed (10.0.40219). After uninstalling them, all is OK.

Oooh! That shouldn't happen. At all. The vc redists should, as far as I know, either:

(a) Silently skipping installation and returning success; or
(b) installing themselves into WinSxS whether or not a newer version exists already

They absolutely should not be failing. Can you please post your installation logs?

When I ran the vcredist_x64.exe without any parameters, it complained that it could not be installed because there was a newer version already installed.
