i dont know if anybody else noticed this, but out of curiosity, i skimmed the agreement that has to be accepted to install rainmeter. well, i noticed something at the very *end* of it:

IMPLIED WARRANTIES, INCLUDING, WITHOUT LIMITATION, THE IMPLIED
WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTIBILITY AND FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE.
The En
there seems to be a "d" missing somewhere in there XD

Very cool! Will be downloading this and trying out some of the new plugins.
*Sidenote, on the Main website's "Documentation" page, the Manual link still says 1.3.

Hey,
Make sure your firewall/anti-virus is not blocking the installer. If that doesn't help, download and install the Visual C++ library manually from:
- 32bit:
http://Rainmeter.net/redist/vcredist_x86.exe
- 64bit:
http://Rainmeter.net/redist/vcredist_x64.exe
Then, try to install and you should be fine.
