Extract the Source Images for the Microsoft Visual C Runtime Libraries

The CA DataMinder distribution image includes two Visual C runtime libraries, vcredist_x86.exe and vcredist_x64.exe. These libraries must be present on the host machines before you can install CA DataMinder. If you need to include these libraries in your Group Policy deployment, you first must extract the 'double wrapped' .msi images and .cab files from the executables.

To extract the source image

1. Find vcredist_x86.exe and vcredist_x64.exe in the \redist folder of the CA DataMinder distribution image.
2. Extract the vcredist.msi and vcredis1.cab files.
   1. (All endpoint computers) Run this command and accept the license agreement:

      vcredist_x86.exe /C /T:<path to output folder #1> 
      

      Where 'output folder #1' is the target folder for the extracted 32-bit source image.

   2. (64-bit endpoint computers only) Run this command and accept the license agreement:

      vcredist_x64.exe /C /T:<path to output folder #2>
      

      Where 'output folder #2' is a second target folder for the extracted 64-bit source image.

3. Copy these extracted files to the same location as the Client.msi file that you created as part of your administrative installation source image.
