+{{Fixbox/fix|Make Folder Writable}}
+{{ii}} Issue can be fixed by making the entire Deadpool folder writable.<ref>http://www.reddit.com/r/Borderlands/comments/10301f/psa_net_install_issue_fix_for_steam_other_launch/c69zc4e</ref>
+{{++}} This is the preferred solution as it is the simplest, most convenient and safest option.
+) Right click on the folder <code>C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\Deadpool\</code>
+) Click properties, and uncheck the 'read-only' option.
+) When starting the game, the redistributables should update one more time.
+) The next time the game is launched, they will not attempt to install again.

+{{Fixbox/fix|Click 'No' To Allow Changes|}}
+) After launching the game, it will ask to allow it to make changes to your computer.
+) Click 'No' at this stage.

+{{Fixbox/fix|Delete Redist Folder|ref=<ref>http://www.reddit.com/r/Borderlands/comments/102az8/what_the_hell_is_with_the_microsoft_net_framework/c69tv2y</ref>}}
+) Go to the <code>%ProgramFiles(x86)%\Steam\SteamApps\common\Deadpool</code>
+) Either delete the Redist folder or rename it.
+) Now when steam starts the game, it will not install anything.
+{{--}} Every time 'verify local game files' is activated, the Redist folder will also be redownloaded, reinitiating this problem.

+{{--}} Potentially extremely dangerous unless you are comfortable using [[regedit]].
+) Open [[regedit]] (Run > regedit) and go to the following location:
+* For 64 bit systems (x64): <code>HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Wow6432Node\Valve\Steam\Apps\224060</code>
+* For 32 bit systems (x86): <code>HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Valve\Steam\Apps\224060</code>
+) Look at the <code>installscript.vdf</code> which you can find in the <code>%ProgramFiles(x86)%\Steam\SteamApps\common\Deadpool</code> folder.
+) Open <code>installscript.vdf</code> with Notepad and look at the names in quotes before each line of <code>process 1</code>.
+) Add the DWORD with a value of <code>1</code> which will tell Steam that the process has been completed and it will not launch again.
