Unfortunately, the 5 version is no longer available from Microsoft. Yeah, that didn't do a damned thing either.Īs it turns out, the installer installs the 1.0 version of the Visual C++ 2013 Redistributable but it looks for a registry key from the 5 version of the Visual C++ 2013 Redistributable.

Next, I noted that this Microsoft Support page said, 'For an updated version of these redistributable packages, see KB 3138367.' So I went to that KB page, and downloaded those redistributables and installed them. So, I tried downloading those specific versions of that redistributable. That page had a link to supposedly working versions of the Visual C++ 2013 redistributables. However, upon clicking the button, it took me to a page on CyberLink's support site. I downloaded that version and tried to install it. I found a reference to a slightly newer version of the Gear 360 Action Director software on Cyberlink's UK support site. I know there are other programs that will edit 360 video.

So, if anyone has the Gear 360 Action Director installed and working, AND you know how to save a registry key to a text file: could you please use RegEdit to save any any relevant registry keys you may find and post the text here? (Note: This is not the same as your software registration key.) I have read that one possibility is that the registry keys are not getting written correctly when installing the redistributable, and that the installation utility only checks the registry. So, does anyone know how to get the Gear 360 Action Director software that you download from Samsung to install properly? (Remember, the latter is version 2.)Īnd, no, I was not able to activate Action Director 3 by plugging in my Gear 360 (2017). And still yet, the Gear 360 Action Director would not install. It also successfully installed the Visual C++ 2013 redistributable. It installs fine, but the Gear 360 Action Director installation gives the same error.ģ) Tried downloading and installing the trial version of Action director 3 from Cyberlink. It installed the redistributable for Visual C++ 20, but wouldn't install for 2013.Ģ) Tried installing the 2013 redistributable downloaded from Microsoft. I have already done lots of searching and therefore have tried:ġ) Uninstall all Visual C++ redistributables for all years, then attempting to install. When running the installation, I get an error message saying it cannot install the Visual C++ 2013 redistributable. The full installation file name is: Gear_360_ActionDirector_Live_.exe. Please note: The version of Action Director available from Samsung is. HP Envy laptop, meets all the requirements.
