This version install and updates the game was able to playa quick game against AI successfully
Thanks for the help all.
Hopefully a developer will later be able to tell me how to debug the ucrtbase.dll issue so no one else has this problem

@Reckless_Charger
had a look and all is fine, should have full permissions

@Sheikah
Unfortunately I'm clueless at this point, I'm installing as admin with an admin account and I've tried installing the FAF client under documents in the case it was having issues with Program Files but no luck

@Eternal

I did try your idea of installing older clients from 1.4 down to 1.0 but all have the same error

So 0.19 has installed and I've linked my steam account etc..
but I'm unable to launch a game

@Eternal
Is that a alpha/beta version of FAF client?

@Eternal
after an upgrade of visual c++ 2019 to 14.28 same issue persists unfortunately

Yes I have both x86 and x64, looks like I am on version 14.24.28127.4
a quick google shows a 14.28 version so I'll try an update

@Eternal

Same result

Problem: Unable to install FAF client 1.4.0

Error Message:

Trying again doesn't work

Is there a way to extract more information from the error, so I can figure out the problem?
Anyone else encountered similar issues on this?
