v104 Installation Fails on Windows 10
Tech Note: TN2605
Product: TDT Drivers, ActiveX
Version: All
Date Added: 2026-10-15
Issue
Installing TDT Drivers or TDT ActiveX fails and all changes are rolled back.
Solution
The Microsoft Visual C++ 2015–2022 Redistributable is required. TDT Drivers needs the 32-bit (x86) runtime, and ActiveX x64 needs the 64-bit (x64) runtime.
Install both redistributables before installing TDT software, even on 64-bit Windows:
- x86: https://aka.ms/vs/17/release/vc_redist.x86.exe
- x64: https://aka.ms/vs/17/release/vc_redist.x64.exe
If the installer reports that the runtime is already installed, choose Repair.
