DesignSpark PCB: New Version 13 - NOW AVAILABLE

Skip to main content

Designspark PCB v13 installer has a fault.


The installer for Designspark V13 is broken.

I have attached the log file of the install, which shows that the rather ancient VC runtime is failing to install.

The previous V11 and V12 installs worked fine, and I removed them after first encountering the error.

Clearly the VC install is not conditioned correctly in the MSI, as suggested by the following line in the log:

[4154:2BAC][2025-09-22T20:39:26]i052: Condition 'InstalledVCRuntimeVersion >= "v14.44.35208.00"' evaluates to false.

The version on my PC is 14.44.35211

 

The “v” in your condition is not a numerical parameter which may cause comparison problems.

As your condition is evaluating to false when it should return true, the code is broken.

 

Can you let me know if you have a workaround or a fixed installer yet?
