[Bug 35979] Contagion (Steam) - Microsoft Visual C++ 2012 Redistributable Package installer started each time the game is launched

Hello Bruno,

To play AOE 2 HD edition from Steam I renamed the vcredist folder to something
else, so the steam installer will skip it and the game loads. Maybe it can work
in Contagion too.

Sure, it will be reported as error (see +debugstr channel) and subsequently
skipped.
The fake registry key method is more reliable because a Steam game cache
revalidation will recreate the prerequisite folders/content.

Regards
