I had XBMC on my windows 7 machine for a while and loved it. Then it would stop opening. So I uninstalled it and tried to re-install it but it would hang up on "execute: "C:/users/mike/AppData/local/temp/vcredist_x86.exe". I cannot get past this point. I love XBMC and would do anything to have it on my machine again. please help!
Thanks,
mike

It will not install. Ive let it sit over night. Ive been working on getting it fixed and i know it is hanging because of the microsoft visual C++ file and DirectX. Ive tried installing both programs separately and then installing XBMC but it still hangs. I really have no idea what to do.

What happens when you uncheck DirectX and visual C++ in the xbmc installer?
It should then skip that and just install xbmc

I am in this exact same scenario with EDEN. Worked fine, then stopped launching. Re-installed, and it hangs at this vcredist_x86.exe
