Hi,
When I install Unified Remote or KodiV17 on my Windows 10 Pro running MP 2 Spring '16, the MP TV server crashes as per attached.
After some investigation, I believe the TV Server is crashing because Unified Remote and KodiV17 install new versions of Microsoft Visual C++ redistributables. A Windows Restore Point identifies that the Visual C++ redistributables, which are common to MP2 will be uninstalled, and as soon as I restore, the MP2 TV Server starts working again. When I install KodiV16.1 after installing MP2, the TV Server keeps working fine. I suspect KodiV16.1 doesn't conflict with MP2 Spring '16 Visual C++ redistributables because KodiV16.1 was released around the same time as MP2 Spring '16.
Still, I'm surprised that this hasn't been identified as a major problem as it would effect any app that installs a Visual C++ redistributable later that MP2 Spring'16. Its this disbelief that has prevented me from raising this as a bug. Is this a known issue? What can I do to install KodiV17 and Unified remote?
Please reply, even if its to confirm this is a known issue.
Regards
