Prerequisite software

The following software is required:

• Windows Installer 3.1 or later
• Microsoft .NET Framework 4.7.1
• Microsoft Visual C++ 2017 Redistributable Package (x86)

To install these, do one of the following:

• Run RumbaPrerequisites.exe.
• Download them from the Microsoft Web site.

To ensure proper installation on Windows 2008 Server, install these pre-requisites manually. After installing .NET Framework, restart the machine before installing Rumba Desktop.

Microsoft Office .NET Interoperability Assemblies

In addition, the Microsoft Office .NET Interoperability Assemblies (PIA) is required. The PIA enables .NET managed code to interact with a Microsoft Office application's COM-based object model. In most cases, the PIA is installed during Office installation. However, sometime it is not. If you need to add the PIA:

1. In Control Panel, select Programs and Features.
2. In the opened window, select the Microsoft Office installation and click Change.
3. Select Add or Remove Features.
4. Click Continue.
5. On the Installation Options page, click the plus sign (+) to expand the application for which you want to install the PIA.
6. Click the drop-down arrow next to .NET Programmability Support, then select Run from My Computer.
