Microsoft Visual C++ Redistributable

I already have 3 versions of Microsoft visual C++ installed in my computer. Recently, when I installed a program, a new version of Microsoft visual C++ installed. Now I need is no longer this program so I uninstalled. But this new version of Microsoft visual C++ is still present. Should I uninstall or keep? What happens if I uninstall as I have already 3 versions to install other programs. 

Let them all. I have 20 versions of C++, and while I don't know what software uses a

particular version (can I even uninstalled the appropriate software), it does not matter as long as

Versions of C++ do not conflict (it is not an executable, only a runtime library), and they take

very little space on the disk (less than 100 MB).

Uninstall a version of C++ and cross your fingers at some point, you get an error message

that does specify a C++.  Avoid situations and leave all versions of C++.

    Original title: problems with Microsoft Visual C++ Redistributable (x 86)

    I try to install the Fix - It Professional 12 by Avanquest on my Windows XP machine.

    When installing, I get a message that says Microsoft C++ Visial Resditributable package (x 86) must be installed.

    When I click to try installing the Avanquest Software, it fails.

    If I go on the Microsoft Web site to try to downlad there from there, he fails again and I like that it's because I already have a newer version on my machine.

    Technical support Avanquest says that their software requires the old version.

    Is there a risk involved with uninstall what is on my machine and allowing the Avanquest software to install the version needed?

    If this is not the case, how does it do this so the rest of the installation of the software can continue?

  • Microsoft Visual C++ Redistributable Packages do not install correctly.

    I recently built a low buget of range, PC game for my sister, so she can play games like the Sims 4.

  • stop the automatic installation of Microsoft Visual C++ redistributable.

    I recently started using a new pc in the office.

    and installed MS visual C++ 2008 express on the PC.

    but when I try to compile a program, I found a problem.

    I checked the "programs and features" in the control panel

    There are many redistributable packages VC ++ in the system, IE. VC ++ 2005, 2008, 2010 redistributable...

    I try to uninstall all the redistributable packages, just keep the VC ++ 2008 Express and its components.

    but when I turned on pc a few days later. all versions of redistributalbes are installed back again. It's really annoying.

    is this a way to prevent this auto/silent install these redistributable packages VC ++? because it messes up my programming environment.

    Thank you.

    Cyberion

    Others are installed only if an installed application needs them.  Every application needs a specific version.

    You aren't the only one with multiple versions (see figure).  I do not know Cmake, but is there a way to 'say' it which one to use?

  • Windows SDK 7.1 not installs on Microsoft Visual C++ Redistributable 10.0.40219

    I try to install the 64-bit from the Windows SDK 7.1 compiler.  But the installation fails with an error (empty) useless.  I tried various fixes suggested in various forums online, but my research suggests that the problem is likely to be the C++ Redistributable package has already installed more recent than the version in the SDK, and he therefore moved not on them.  Unfortunately, I can't seem to uninstall the redistributable files: there no option to uninstall them in programs and features, probably because they were put there as part of the installation of another program.  But I don't know which and have not been able to understand.  I can't just go remove programs at random, so I don't think that kidnapping will work for me.

    Is it possible to get the compiler installed without removing the redistributable files? Microsoft plans to release an updated SDK to update anytime soon?
    For what it's worth, I'm on Windows 7 Enterprise SP1, 64-bit.

  • Package redistributable Microsoft Visual C++

    Is it right for me to uninstall all the Microsoft Visual C++ Redistributable packages earlier and just keep the last version of package?

    Chris Jr

    No you have to keep all the.  Individual applications use one version or another.  If they have been installed by an application and that you remove the application stops working.

  • "Error 1714. The old version of Microsoft Visual C ++ 2005 Redistributable cannot be deleted. Contact your technical support group. »

    (Windows 7 64-bit)

    This can be long and winded, but I spent 5 hours trying to solve this problem.

    It all started when I tried to uninstall a program, but I kept getting the message that wanted me vcredit.msi (or something like that) I downloaded a copy of it and pointed out the program of this file, but it has always found a problem and wouldn't uninstall. (Add/Remove programs won't uninstall it not more)

    So, I moved to the installation of a new program. He repeats to me '\Temp\IXP1. TMP\ is not a valid package for the product Microsoft Visual C ++ 2005
    Redistributable. Try to find the installation package 'vcredit.msi' in a folder that you can install Microsoft Visual C ++ 2005 Redistributable. »

    When I point to the vcredit.msi that I downloaded (just randomly sitting in my docs) I get "error 1714. The old version of Microsoft Visual C ++ 2005 Redistributable cannot be deleted.  Contact your technical support group. »

    I also have trouble downloading updates Microsoft for Microsoft Visual C ++ 2005 Redistributable & at the same time in updates it shows Microsoft Visual C ++ 2008 Redistributable.

    I tried to uninstall Microsoft Visual C ++ 2005 Redistributable via Add/Remove Programs, but it won't let me say it does not find some programs.

    This thing is annoys the heck out of me.

    I need to set the Microsoft Visual C ++ 2005 Redistributable problem (looks like I need the new version 2008 or 2010?) and be able to install and uninstall programs. Which is somehow related.

    Any ideas what to do. (Please speak as clearly as possible. I'm a fool when it comes to computers lol)
