Before installing drivers on a computer, as soon as you're done with the format, it is advisable to install all the Microsoft Visual C++ libraries to ensure the drivers that depend on it are working properly.
This utility is specifically intended to expedite the entire tedious download(s) with only one simple click and quickly completes the entire process within just a couple of minutes. As you may already know, often when you install the Visual C++ Libraries from 2005, it places one of its DLL files (msdia80.dll) incorrectly in the root folder of the largest accessible partition with free space. Then you would have to manually move that file to the correct folder and edit the registry entries for it to point to the correct location. But now by using Visual C++ Runtime Installer (All-In-One), all the files are placed correctly in their right locations - saving you time and potential aggravation.
Runtimes included are the latest full Visual C++ Runtimes for 2005, 2008, 2010, 2012, 2013, and 2017.
