    <p>I wanted to post the details of a temporary fix that we're going with. We've also gotten closer to the root of the problem, so I wanted to provide those details as well.</p> <p><strong>Recap of Issue</strong></p> <p>When referencing the Visual C++ Runtime Package from our Metro project, System Center is unable to deploy the application to the devices because there is a problem deploying the proper version of the dependency for the appropriate architecture and build flavor. </p> <p>Our development machines running Visual Studio 2012 (and packaging the project for deployment) are using a newer version of the Visual C++ Runtime (50727) than what is available in a fresh installation of Windows 8 (50712). </p> <p>Worked with the System Center team and confirmed that this was a bug in the version we were using and has already been addressed in future builds. We're going to work on upgrading the environment but that will take a couple of weeks.</p> <p><strong>Workaround</strong></p> <p>I confirmed and tested the following workaround:</p> <ul> <li>Remove the reference to the Microsoft Visual C++ Runtime Package from the Metro project</li> <li>Install the x64 version of the Visual C++ Redistributable for Visual Studio 2012 - <a href="http://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=3" rel="nofollow">http://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=3</a></li> <li>Deploy the application </li> </ul> <p>Works like a charm because the correct version of the dependency is there already. Obviously not a long term solution if we choose to also target x86 and ARM, but will get us over this hump. </p>
