  • Error 1935. An error occurred during the installation of assembly component Microsoft.VC80.CRT ...
  • Error 1935.An error occurred during the installation of assembly component {43CC1B37-B20C-3EBC-9C04-F809989E4FD3}. HRESULT: 0x80070BC9.

Solutions

Solution 1: Restart the computer.

Restart your system and begin the Creative Suite product installation again.

Solution 2: Uninstall and reinstall the .net framework.

In some cases, the 1935 error results from orphaned registry keys from a different version of the .NET Framework than the one being installed. Uninstalling the .NET frameworks, removing orphaned registry keys that can remain, then reinstalling the .NET Framework can help in this situation.

Disclaimer: This procedure involves modifying the Windows registry. Adobe doesn't provide support for problems caused by improperly modifying the registry, which contains critical information about your system's hardware and software. Before modifying the registry, create a backup of the registry. For more information about the registry, see the documentation in Windows or contact Microsoft.

  1. Close all applications.
  2. Choose Start > Control Panels > Programs and Features.

  5. Repeat for any additional versions of the .NET framework.
  6. Click Start, type regedit in the Search text field, and then press Enter. The Registry Editor opens.
