Microsoft VC++ Redistributable Packages

Small scripts: Adobe Air/Reader/Flash, Microsoft Commons, DirectX, Java, Microsoft Security, Microsoft Redistributables.
Honestly I can't create a separate forum for each of them all in the main list it would be too long.

I went here: https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/search/ ... te&First=9 and noticed that the item was listed as Microsoft Visual C++ 2015 Redistributable Update 3 - after downloading and installing it listed itself as Microsoft Visual C++ 2010 Redistributable Update 3 - a goof on Microsoft's part, I assume.

Microsoft Visual C++ 2010 Redistributable Update 3: https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/downloa ... x?id=54179

Take whatever action you deem necessary.

Checked with AIDA64 Extreme v5.80.4005 beta and it was listed as Visual C++ 10.0.40219.

Visual C++ 2013 Redistributable update 5 has been posted - You'll have to check the Microsoft site for it - I found it last night but forgot to save the download location.

Just a note to all concerned, IF you install VC++ 2017 and run autopatcher a second time you will notice that VC++ 2015 requires installing (even if you previously had it installed).

Need to check with TheAPGuy about this issue. Will report when solution is at hand

UPDATE: Have been researching the issue and found out that it appears that VC++2017 is an upgrade to VC++2015. This I have verified with searching the registry using regscanner for the version numbers. Also checked the installed updates with similar results.
As I see it, this may create issues with those who game, requiring VC++2015 for their play.

The solution I offer for the time being is to blacklist the VC++ version not required, in this case VC++2017.

Comments welcome..

hmm...sounds dangerous on the part of majorgeek(in that they are throwing pebbles at a bear). Autopatcher got in trouble for storing M$ updates on its server in the past. Other then that... sounds alright. They say it even fixes the minor 2005 glitch(which I did not even know was a thing).
