I tried to install ue4 4.10 to try to make a custom Mod-kit for Hello, Neighbor Alpha 1, I installed visual studio and it made my PC slow, so I uninstalled it, now none of my ue4 stuff works. is there a way to fix this without re-installing vs?

Hi there,

You will need the redistributables installed if you don’t have Visual Studio. First install the [Visual C++ Runtime 2015](https://www.microsoft.com/en-in/download/confirmation.aspx?id=48145), and then install the [Visual C++ Runtime 2017](https://aka.ms/vs/15/release/VC_redist.x64.exe).

That should fix it. =)

If you run into any other errors let me know!

It’s possible you only need the 2015 version since you are using version 4.10, but I added a link to the 2017 just to be sure.

Try loading it with just 2015 installed, it might be enough.

My problem is just solved according to your reply. Thx.  
And vcruntime 2015~2022 can be installed by one exe:
