I installed the development version of Gearotic and left the check mark for installing the redistribute, checked. When I tried to run Gearotic I got the "side by side config" error message. I uninstalled Gearrotic and Mach4 & deleted the directories. Rebooted my tablet. Reinstalled Gearotic, this time unchecked the install redistributable option. Ran ran gearotic, again I got the "side by side config" error message.
