Windows 10 will not allow any MS Visual C++ under 10 to install?

On a computer that had a series of upgrades to the OS and is now on W10 i had a problem with a program and got to the point of uninstall/reinstall.

When i attempted the installation, each time it tried to install MS Visual C++ Runtime 2005 i got the dreaded 1935 error.


I finally got to the point that i thought if i uninstall ALL MS RunTime libraries, let the program i am fighting with (Nuance's PaperPort) re-install MS Visual C++ RunTime 2005, then reinstall all the other runtimes, i might have a solution. Nope.


So i downloaded all of the runtimes and tried individual installation. It seems that the current release of Windows 10 will not allow any MS Visual C++ Runtime Library prior to 2010 install, at least not on this computer. This is a problem.


I have tried shutting down updates, avti-malwares, firewalls,... but the curious thing to all those solutions i see posted on the internet is that MS Visual C++ Runtimes 2010, 2012, 2013 and 2017 install without a problem. This holds for both the x86 and 84 bit versions.


Other experiences or solutions?
