“Please make sure you have both the x86 and x64 editions installed. Try using the 7th Heaven exe installer, or visit https://dotnet.microsoft.com for more information.”

I have installed both editions of the 8.0.0 and 8.0.8 runtimes to my Final Fantasy 7 proton prefix and am still getting this error

Did it wrong, might be easier this way

I edited your comment to add a code block.

Log looks fine. How are you running 7th Heaven after the install?

[Lexicon102]

Through the Steam shortcut made by the installer

[dotaxis]

Can't reproduce this. Make sure you are using a fresh install of FF7.

I have installed both editions of the 8.0.0 and 8.0.8 runtimes to my Final Fantasy 7 proton prefix

Also don't know what you mean by this. 7thDeck should handle all the dependencies.

There is also a 7thHeaven.log in the 7thDeck directory. Can you upload that? Use a code block by wrapping it in 3 backticks (```)

I tried installing them myself to try and fix the problem. I suppose I could completely delete the game and remove the compatdata and try installing it again

This did indeed fix it. Thanks for your help and sorry for wasting your time

No problem! Glad it's working.
