Before starting the installation you should consider the following:
- Visual COBOL and
Enterprise Developer cannot coexist on the same machine.
- If, when you install
Visual COBOL for Visual Studio
2012, the machine does not have Microsoft Visual C++ 2012 Redistributable Runtime already installed, it is installed as required
by
Visual COBOL. The installation of Microsoft Visual C++ Redistributable Runtime adds a number of
.dll files, without digital signatures, into the
winsxs directory.
- You need to be logged in with a user-ID that has write access to the registry structure under HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE, HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT,
and HKEY_CURRENT_USER so the installation software can set the environment appropriately. You also need to be logged on with
Administrator privileges.
