Remove and reinstall Microsoft Visual Studio 2008.

I understand that msvcr.dll is part of Visual Studio 2008. My dll file is missing, so I plan to delete and reinstall VS2008. Two versions of VS2008 have been installed on my pc according to Addd or remove programs.  The first Visual C++ 2008 Redistributable-x 86 isMicrosoft 9.0.30729.17, which is 19.9 MB. The second is Microsoft Visual C++ 2008 Redistributable-x 86 9.0.30729.4148, which is 10,19 MB. Which one should I remove? Also, where can I get a replacement of deleted files? I am running Windows XP with Service Pack 3 on a Lenovo T400 laptop. Thank you...

Hello

You don't need to uninstall Microsoft Visual C++ 2008 Redistributable package. I suggest you install the latest Microsoft Visual C++ 2008 Redistributable package that will repair the existing package.

    Hi mate,

    Sorry, but just because one person in a MSDN forum has randomly the same machine you, does not mean that there is a related problem of the machine. Technically in comparing it s absolutely the same material as in an office and so why Don t you contact Microsoft technical support?

    It seems that it is certainly unwanted Microsoft and has NOTHING to do with Toshiba hardware or software, so please see MS support sites or give them a call, because it s THEIR software which won´t operate according to THEIR operating system.

  • Microsoft Visual C++ 2008 Redistributable Package (x 86) and other versions hold 4 GB of space

    Running Windows 7 Home edition (Spanish version)

    While trying to find space on my portable hard drive, I noticed that there are 8 versions of Microsoft Visual C++ 2008 Redistributable Package (x 86) on my machine. That's a total of more than 4 gigabytes of space. Is there a version that will cover all these? or can I just delete some of them?

    Original title: Microsoft Visual C++ 2008 Redistributable Package (x 86)

    I think you read the amount of space used for the wrong purposes.

    I have 19 installs C++ ("2005 - 08-10 & 12") that accumulate to about 86MB total (64 bit Win7).

    Adults are between 11-15 MB each.

    I have not been informed to the contrary and assume that newer versions of C++ are not cumulative.

    You will notice that everyone installs it different is a different version, and I expect the software

    who installed will seek this particular version.

    While I would probably uninstall all additional versions if I had the confirmation that the two

    versions 2012 (x 86 & x 64) have been combined, they don't take up much room, so I can't be bothered

    experimentation to uninstall and reinstall again if a software that I do not often do not load.

    in particular, because he cannot throw an error that specifies c++, this could lead to much .

    BTW - just to get the right terminology. Software is uninstalled. Files are deleted.

    While the software can be removed, doing so can cause problems both with to remove the title of

    Programs and features, leaving the back files (which can happen when you uninstall anyway),

    and leaving the registry entries.

    -If your laptop HDD/SSD is short on space, you will very likely move the files to an external HARD drive, or get a bigger HDD.

    Music, video are joint space pigs, followed by photos. Most of the software don't take up much space,

    but uninstall the "bloatware" that comes with many laptops may help some.

    If you have any games, they can use a lot of space.

    Note also that an SSD will last longer if you leave 25% of free space. HARD drives require 15% free space to

    the defragmentation. If you have a HARD drive and not of defraged for a long time you can find a part

    space and increase performance of defraging (which can be very time consuming if not done regularly).
