The Visual C++ Redistributable installs Microsoft C and C++ (MSVC) runtime libraries. Many applications built using Microsoft C and C++ tools require these libraries. If your app uses those libraries, a Microsoft Visual C++ Redistributable package must be installed on the target system before you install your app. The Redistributable package architecture must match your app's target architecture. The Redistributable version must be at least as recent as the MSVC build toolset used to build your app. We recommend you use the latest Redistributable available for your version of Visual Studio, with some exceptions noted later in this article.
Unlike older versions of Visual Studio, which have infrequent redist updates, the version number isn't listed in the following table for Visual Studio 2015-2022 because the redist is updated frequently. To find the version number of the latest redist, download the redist you're interested in using one of the following links. Then, look at its properties using Windows File Explorer. In the Details pane, the File version contains the version of the redist.
Some of the downloads that are mentioned in this article are currently available on my.visualstudio.com. Log in using a Visual Studio Subscription account so that you can access the download links.

Visual Studio versions since Visual Studio 2015 share the same Redistributable files. For example, any apps built by the Visual Studio 2015, 2017, 2019, or 2022 toolsets can use the latest Microsoft Visual C++ Redistributable. However, the version of the Microsoft Visual C++ Redistributable installed on the machine must be the same or higher than the version of the Visual C++ toolset used to create your application. For more information about which version of the Redistributable to install, see Determining which DLLs to redistribute. For more information about binary compatibility, see C++ binary compatibility between Visual Studio versions.

Do note that %VCINSTALLDIR% only works in the Visual Studio Developer Command Prompt. That should be located under the Visual Studio XXXX folder in your start menu or it can be launched directly from inside visual studio. You can then enter
The easiest way to locate the redistributable files is by using environment variables set in a developer command prompt. In Visual Studio 2022, the redistributable files are in the %VCINSTALLDIR%Redist\MSVC\v143 folder. In the latest version of Visual Studio 2019, you'll find the redistributable files in the %VCINSTALLDIR%Redist\MSVC\v142 folder. In both Visual Studio 2017 and Visual Studio 2019, they're also found in %VCToolsRedistDir%. In Visual Studio 2015, these files can be found in %VCINSTALLDIR%redist, where is the locale of the redistributable packages.
%VCINSTALLDIR% is set by the command prompts of all Visual Studio version, but the value will differ between Visual Studio variants. You can install multiple versions of Visual Studio side by side on the same computer.
hi there i just change my laptop and i been having the same problem for over a week and its frustrating that when im in process of installing 3dmax 2016 this freeze when it comes the part of adding the microsoft visual c++ 2012 it always get stuck there and dont continue the installation after that. have tried all that i came with desactivate antivirus and firewall, unistall the other microsoft visualc++ i had in my laptop, change the control acount of user even if im administrator, etc. i dont know what else to do please help i really need to get this done because i got work to finish.
I'm sorry to hear that you are having problems with your installation. I would like to suggest downloading the product using this download method. This is different than downloading the product from your Autodesk Account. To download try the following:
It sounds like you have an issue but the last part of your posting it sounds like you're providing a solution to missing links. If you actually have an installation issue please provide Autodesk product and version and the installation log file so we can review it. It may have nothing to do with Microsoft C++..
Microsoft Visual C++ Redistributable is an installer for Microsoft C and C++ runtime libraries. Many apps, programs, and games created using these two languages require the installation of these libraries to function correctly. The Visual C++ architecture installed must match the application's architecture to be run.
Sometimes, when installing a very recent game, it may not work. Most games usually include several additional installation packages, but sometimes they don't. When you download them from gaming platforms such as Steam, these redistributables are usually automatically installed on your computer.
If you've had Windows installed on your computer for several years, you will likely see redistributables installed from different years and versions, such as 2010, 2013, 2015, and 2022. This is because there are programs designed to work with a specific version of these libraries. Here at Uptodown, we offer downloads for the latest available versions for both 32- and 64-bit, taking into account that many are no longer supported.
Uptodown is a multi-platform app store specialized in Android. Our goal is to provide free and open access to a large catalog of apps without restrictions, while providing a legal distribution platform accessible from any browser, and also through its official native app.
MySQL required c++ redistributables, so I have installed both 2013 and 2015 redistributables, and the MySQL installer has successfully installed several programs, one of which being Workbench, but not MySQL Server.
Simply download the package for the CPU architecture which you do not already have installed and then afterwards re-run the MySQL Server install again and maybe the prerequisite check will pass.
Many applications require redistributable Visual C++ runtime library packages to function correctly. These packages are frequently installed separately from the applications they support, enabling multiple applications to use the package with only a single installation. These Visual C++ redistributable and runtime packages are mostly installed for standard libraries that many applications use.[3]
There are several different version numbers to consider when working with Visual C or C++. The oldest and most original of these is the compiler version number, which has been monotonically increased since the early Microsoft C compiler days. This is the version returned by running the command cl.exe on its own without any options. By taking two digits after the decimal and dropping the decimal point, this also becomes the value of the C pre-processor macro: _MSC_VER, and the CMake variable: MSVC_VERSION. A longer version of the C macro is _MSC_FULL_VER to make more finely-grained distinctions between builds of the compiler. An example of _MSC_VER is "1933" to represent version 19.33 of the Microsoft C/C++ compiler, and of _MSC_FULL_VER is "193331630". You should use the >= operator to test the value of _MSC_VER or _MSC_FULL_VER instead of equality.
The Visual product version, such as "17.3.4", designates the version of Visual Studio with which version 19.33 of the compiler was packaged. Then there is the Microsoft Visual C/C++ Runtime Library version, e.g. "14.3". From this, one can deduce also the toolset version, which can be obtained by taking the first three digits of the runtime library version and dropping the decimal, e.g. "143". It includes the Visual C/C++ runtime library, as well as compilers, linkers, assemblers, other build tools, and matching libraries and header files. The following is a (scrapeable) table of the known correlated version numbers.
The Visual C++ compiler ABI have historically changed between major compiler releases.[54] This is especially the case for STL containers, where container sizes have varied a lot between compiler releases.[55] Microsoft therefore recommends against using C++ interfaces at module boundaries when one wants to enable client code compiled using a different compiler version. Instead of C++, Microsoft recommends using C[56] or COM[57] interfaces, which are designed to have a stable ABI between compiler releases.
