Unless the software you are installing doesn’t include Microsoft Visual C++ Redistributable in its package then that’s the time you need to manually download it from the Microsoft website and install it on your computer.īut generally, it is installed automatically with another program. It is very uncommon to have an error with Microsoft Visual C++ Redistributable because normally, this application is installed by another program as a required component. I found a problem in Visual C++ 2005 redistributable.
