How to determine Visual C++ 2008 redistributable package is installed

[Coral]

I ran 7.0.0-Orion without installing Visual C++ 2008 redistributable package!

 

Works fine on: Windows XP Home Edition Service Pack 3

 

I thought my XP was a clean version so I searched for msvcr90.dll and found it on my system. That means Visual C++ 2008 Redistributable was already installed.

Note: I performed search using “Everything-1.2.1.371” recommended by Bobs.

 

Other thing I noticed:

Run Start.exe initial pop-up displays Uniform server V5-Nano series

I assume left over from integration.

Thanks for posting.

 

Your redistributable package check is usefully may include a similar check in the Run_pre_check.exe on next release.

 

Any references to Nano or Carbo are indeed artefacts and will eventually be removed.

 

All the best

A quick (but important) update:

 

Microsoft has released an updated version of the library which includes a security patch. We should all reference this one for people to install. It can be found at:
