Hello

I want to install Solidworks 2015 SP4 on Windows 10, but after 2% I would get an error message:

"The executable file

I:\Prereqs\vcredist\vcredist_x64.exe "  /q:a /c: "msiexec /i vredist.msi REBOOT =reallySuppress /q" was not installed correctly.

and thank you

Hello 

To have a correct installation you would have to install the 2015 and then migrated to the SP5 and not the 4. The 5 and the most accomplished version.

Are you in 64bits?

In 32, it doesn't work

See attached image

so in my opinion for SW 2015 you have to go through windows 8

and the migration is done via the sp5 of SW 2015 for windaube 10

if I understood correctly
