knngredd0,

Back in 2024, there was a thread on this site that talked about this same error under the title:

failed to correctly acquire vc_redist.x64.exe file: CRC error.

You can find it here:

https://community.usa.canon.com/t5/EOS-Webcam-Utility-Pro/failed-to-correctly-acquire-vc-redist-x64-exe-file-CRC-error/td-p/512761

Maybe that will give you some tips

There is also a Wecam Utility forum on this site. You could post your question there too.
