Hi,

the current stable release setup 2.0.1 will trigger uninstallation of Microsoft
Visual C++ 2013 x86 Minimum Runtime and Microsoft Visual C++ 2013 x86
Additional Runtime if present.

This will break other applications that required these.
In our case Citrix Xenapp 7.7 wont work after installation of wireshark.
Reinstallation of Visual C++ 2013 x86 Runtime solved the problem with xenapp
and even wireshark seems to work fine.
No clue why wireshark setup triggers deinstallation of Visual C++ 2013 x86
Runtime.

Regards DaWast
