STARDROP FAQ

ERRORS

For those who is having issues with installing Visual C++ Redistributable for Visual Studio 2015.

Firstly, you need to make sure your Windows Update is working and enabled. To do so, hit Win+R buttons, type in new window: services.msc . A new window will appear on your screen. Scroll down a little and look for Windows Update service. Right click on it, then hit properties . A new window will appear, look for startup type , click on it and then select automatic . After all that, apply changes and return back to services window.

Now, you need to make sure your module installer service is working. To do so, look for Windows Module Installer . Do same actions as for Windows Update changes(I.E: switch startup type to automatic), apply changes and then right click on Windows Module Installer and then start up the service.

Lastly, you need to remember: You will need install both Visual C++ redistributable for VS 2015(x64 and x86 versions) in order to prevent other issues coming up with STARDROP(such as api-ms-win-crt-string-l1-1-0.dll file being missed).

Hope that helps
Thanks and good luck in future!
