If we try to launch STAAD.Pro Connect Edition by double clicking the icon in the desktop the splash screen comes but then it shows error message. It instructs "Close the program" or "look for some solutions in the internet".
Cause:
Unsuccessful deployment of Visual C++ 2015 Redistributables for x64 on Windows 7-64 bit machines. It can be checked from control panel. Also if we launch "Sproview.exe" from the below path it provides the cause of failure to launch the program.
C:\Program Files\Bentley\Engineering\STAAD.Pro CONNECT Edition\STAAD
Resolution:
Explicit installation of Visual C++ 2015 Redistributable for x64 (https://www.microsoft.com/en-in/download/details.aspx?id=48145)
