Do we need any of the previous ones or just v14? As I have 2005, 2008, 2010, 2012, 2013, 2019 both X86 and X64 Sorry couldn't insert a screen shot or picture off my drive showing what's installed. Cheers
2005, 2008, 2010, 2012 and 2013 are all separate versions! Only with 2015 and up, the newer replace the previous.
I will explain it once again. If you try to run an app written in older Visual Studio, for example 2005, then you must have VC++ 2005 installed (the OS version does not matter). If you don't had installed the VC++ 2005 then you will see an error about missing DLL's while you try to run the app. The same comes for all other VC++ runtimes versions. Now you can decide, if you need the older versions of VC++ runtimes installed or not.
Thanks for all the help guys abbodi1406 wilenty Carlos Detweiller I now understand I will keep all versions as is just in-case (2005, 2008, 2010, 2012, 2013, 2019 both X86 and X64) Keep up the great work
Hello you can get that progress thing with Manual mode: VisualCppRedist_AIO_x86_x64.exe /aiM this is kind of limitation of Windows Installer (MSI), it cannot force closing them but if you ran the installer in Quiet mode, it will skip those opened applications/services and schedule replacing currently used files after reboot
I have 2005 8.0.61001 and I got it from MS Site somewhere(names sth like MFC Security update for VC2005)
