when i click on the download (Sonos_76.2-47270.exe) executable, Sonos - InstallShield Wizard starts, asking the language ‘nederlands’ but after a while it stops “bezig met het installeren van Microsoft visual C++ 2019 Redistributable Package x86”; after soms mùinutes i get from the Sonos - InstallShield Wizard a message that the installation of Microsoft visual C++ 2019 Redistributable Package x86 seems to have failed. Do you want to continu? yes or no. Even when i select yes nothing happens.

What to do ?

and next ?

In the right half of your screen you should see a list of the apps that are installed on your system. Choose Microsoft visual C++ 2019 Redistributable Package x8 and click “verwijder”. When installing the Sonos app it will probably prompt you to install Microsoft visual C++ 2019 Redistributable Package x8 again.

This is basic computer stuff. If you do not trust yourself to do this, ask a more knowledgeable person to do it for you.

maybe because the Operating System is 64 bits ?

Windows 11-versie 23H2 (64-bits)

You say it's a brand new PC. Maybe it needs updating of it's software, before it's fully functional. If I were you, I would take that route: Instellingen → Windows Update → Naar updates zoeken.

Google GTranslate: I had already done that but everything is ok so no updates

Then you should remove Microsoft visual C++ 2019 and reinstall it: Instellingen → Apps → Geïnstalleerde apps → Apps zoeken Then type in Microsoft visual C++ 2019.
