TheVisual 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. If you're asked for credentials, use your existing Visual Studio subscription account. Or, create a free account by choosing the No account? Create one! link.


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.


These links download the latest available en-US Microsoft Visual C++ Redistributable packages for Visual Studio 2013.You can download other versions and languages from Update for Visual C++ 2013 Redistributable Package or from my.visualstudio.com.


These links download the latest available en-US Microsoft Visual C++ Redistributable packages for Visual Studio 2012 Update 4. You can download other versions and languages from Microsoft Visual C++ Redistributable Packages for Visual Studio 2012 Update 4 or from my.visualstudio.com.


Alright, My windows server 2016, is updated with last version of Microsoft Visual C++, and I uninstall and install again couple times, and nothing, same error again and again, Portal and DataStore same.


It's necessary stop all arcgis process and services running on Server, after that, system allows to unistall older version from microsoft visual c++ property, and install a newer version, after that, setup.exe from portal, server and datastore runs fine


Ran into this issue during a production update today. Ours is a 3 machine cluster and we hit the snag right out of the gate. We tried everything but to no avail. The arcgis msi fails to recognize the c++ redistributables on the server. We installed and reinstalled them. Removed registry keys associated with it. Reinstalled. Nothing. So frustrating


Try to restore your server to previous starting upgrade process, stop all arcgis services like server, portal and datastore, open windows task manager and kill every arcgis process, after that download the last version of vc++ from microsoft site (last version 2022) and run stetup, it will remove previous vc++ version and install newer.


No luck, unfortunately. We had to rebuild all the VMs and reinstall ArcGIS 10.7.1 on them. Seems that something corrupted on them. It even prevented the servers from getting updated versions of VMWare Management tools. Very strange. I attempted all your methods but it did not pan out. Thank you for the prompt reply! Appreciate it.


Unfortunately, the only thing that worked for us was taking each machine out of the site, wiping the VM and reinitiating a new VM, then install ArcGIS 10.7.1, join the site again, and then upgrade that machine to 10.9.1. Having done that, we removed the other two machines, wiped them away, and re-initiated them, and installed 10.9.1, and then have them join the first machine and its now upgraded site.


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.


After a few web searches I gathered these files were parts of the Visual C++ redistributable for Visual Studio 2015. Many sites advised me to download and install the said Visual C++ redistributable, which I did. But the problem persists. So, I uninstalled 5.4 and went back and installed 5.3.5.


Creo does not open, after installation. It just does not do anything and also does not pop up in the Task Manager. Whilst installing the installation manager complained, that he could not install Visual c++ redistributables. I finished the installation never the less, because under programs, in the system preferences, all the redistributables for visual c++ are listed.


The tip no. 2 unfortunately does not work in my case, because windows 10 is no longer available for ARM in Parallels. Which means I have to use windows 11. Regarding the first tip: I have found the config.pro file, but how do I add the option "graphics win32_gdi" ?


Status update: I installed the latest versions of visual c++ and reinstalled Creo. That had the positiv effect that the installation went nearly perfect this time. The Warning regarding visual c++ is gone and it installed that part like it should, there was only a warning regarding creo topology or something like that.


Every time I install a game, or even OpenOffice, part of the installation routine is installing yet another Visual C++ 2005/2008 redistributable, right next to the 10 others I already have on my system.


Visual C++ redistributables are components shipped by app developers who use Visual C++ to write their software. By using Microsoft's well-tested and widely used code inside their apps, developers save their development cost by avoid writing commonly-used code (e.g. sin and cos math functions and handling of common user interface elements like textbox or button). Due to fragmentation in the runtime versions used by the app developers, you would see a long list of Visual C++ redistributables if you install a lot of apps. Uninstalling one Visual C++ redistributable could save you a few megabytes of disk space, but you risk breaking some apps in doing so.


Because programmers rely on Microsoft to keep the Visual C++ runtime up to date, Microsoft releases security update for the redistributables, but due to programmer demands, Visual C++ redistributables do not supersede each other and old versions are kept for compatibility. Some apps are very specific about the version of the Visual C++ dlls they require to make sure the app runs exactly as published. Their authors hold on updating to the latest runtime until they tested their app's compatibility with the new runtime. It is one way to prevent a few thousands calls from angry customers after Microsoft releases an update to the redistributable. Most apps, however, bind to the latest edition of the same major version, as it is the default behavior and the benefit from immediate and effortless security updates outweighs risks in breaking changes delivered by redistributable updates.
