Upon launching the installer, some have observed an immediate shutdown without any error messages. This indicates that the installation process is being abruptly terminated, hindering the successful integration of the Toolkit into the Steam environment.
Performance Insights
Upon further investigation, it was discovered that the installer for the BG3 Toolkit relies on the Microsoft Visual C++ Redistributable Package.
