Visual Studio 2010 Install error 1304 error writing to file mfcmifc80.dll

While installing the x64 prerequisites for Visual Studio 2010 (on a Windows 2008 R2 box).

Visual Studio 2010 prereq installing
Visual Studio 2010 prereq installing

This error popups:

Visual Studio 2010 Error 1304 while installing
Visual Studio 2010 Error 1304 while installing

 

Visual Studio 2010 Prerequisites

Error 1304. Error writing to file: mfcmifc80.dll. Verify that you have access to that directory.

Solution:

  1. Install .NET Framework 4.0
  2. Install these patches for .NET Framework 4.0:
  • KB2478663
  • KB2416472
  • KB2518870

 After installing .Net Framework 4.0 and the above patches I was able to install 64bit Prerequisites (64bitPrereq\x64\VS_Prerequisites_x64_enu.msi), and the full VS2010 package.
