The original issue (filed more than half a year ago) has nothing to do with KB2999226: the daily builds have only recently (~last month) received the MSUs for the UCRT - see <a class="bz_bug_link bz_status_RESOLVED bz_closed" title="RESOLVED FIXED - Installation fails on Windows Server 2008 R2" href="show_bug.cgi?id=124794#c11">bug 124794 comment 11</a>. 2. The KB is, as mentioned, UCRT required for LibreOffice to work. It is attempted to be installed on Windows versions prior to Windows 10 (those older versions don't have it "from factory" and need installed); *unconditionally* - because of lack of reliable technology to detect if it's properly installed on the system (see <a class="bz_bug_link bz_status_RESOLVED bz_closed" title="RESOLVED FIXED - Trying to install. Message states api-ms-win-crt-string-l1-1-0.dll is missing" href="show_bug.cgi?id=119910">tdf#119910</a>, where Avast installed UCRT improperly, and we detected "presence" of it skipping installation of the pre-requisite, then failed to run LO). 3. The installer in 6.3 was changed to not fail when cannot install UCRT; it only warns that user might need to install it manually, then proceeds to successfully finish the installation. This can happen, e.g., if Windows Installer is disabled/malfunctioning. Of course, in that case, the component could already be present on system - as I said, we now don't check for its presence; thus that's only a warning. So, unzipping the installer to work shouldn't be necessary.</pre> </div> <hr> You are receiving this mail because: <ul> <li>You are the assignee for the bug.</li> </ul> </body> </html>
