Redistribuable VC++ 2012 on Windows XP
Hello,
I made a setup for an app using the "VC++ 2012 Redistribuable x86". I put this redistribuable as "download from web" before the installation. It works great on Windows 7, it gets downloaded and such but when i'm trying on windows xp, it doesn't prompt to install it.
My app is using the .NET 4.0 framework and the setup on windows xp downloads it if it's needed.
On windows 7 it prompts to install both .NET 4.0 Framework and VC++ 2012 Redistribuable x86.
Am I doing something wrong there for windows xp ?
Thanks for the help.

It appears that this prerequisite does not have a condition to run on Windows XP.
If you have the Pro or Premier InstallShield Editions, you can use the prerequisite editor to manually add a condition for XP. Unfortunately, the express edition doesn't include the prerequisite editor.
