Windows 10: Do I really need 13 MS Visual C++ files

Do I really need 13 MS Visual C++ as listed in Revo Uninstaller? I know I need some, but what is the correct amount?

Thanks for any info.

missing .dll

Hi William,

This file is used by MS Visual C++ for Visual Studio 2015. It is installed by the software that requires this file.

We suggest reinstalling MS Visual C++ for Visual Studio 2015 on this article.

If you need further assistance, don't hesitate to reach out.

 

Many troubles and problems in the new version of windows 10. please help!

Hello Akheel Ahmed

Thank you for your quick reply.

I have many Microsoft Visual C++ is installed!

3 times MS Visual C ++ 2005

7 times MS Visual C ++ 2008

2 times MS Visual C ++ 2010

2 times MS Visual C ++ 2012

I did not make any changes on the computer prior to the issue.

After reinstalling Corel Paintshop this morning, it is working again and that before the scan you told me to do.

After the scan, I got this message: windows resource did not find any integrity violations.

Now, the most important software I need “ DFX Tiffen” still not working and it has its own Visual C ++ 2014 (but I can’t see the Visual C++ 2014 in programs and features). When I try to run the program, I get this message: the program can’t start because
the OpenCL.dll is missing from your computer. Try reinstalling the program to fix the problem. (I tried several times)

For me it’s enough to solve this issue (DFX Tiffen software) and the FTP weather station software.

Sincerely

Andrew

 

Hi there. These of course support applications. Personally I wouldn't fool with them.

Redistributing Visual C++ Files | Microsoft Docs

 

Those files are there because some application needed them. It is possible that you don't need them all but making that determination is far from simple and likely to require a lot of time. I wouldn't care to try. An since they really don't take that much space anyway there is little to gain by deleting them.

Best leave them alone.

 

Thanks to "HippsieGypsie" and "LMiller7" for quick replies and info.

Will mark solved!

Thanks again
