Visual C++ Redistributable for Visual Studio

This is a required system component on Windows operating systems to run IronOCR and many other modern pieces of software reliably.
Install Visual C++ Runtime for Windows
Download and run the installer from the official Microsoft support CDN
- 32-bit machines requires x86 only [download x86 from Microsoft]
- 64-bit machines require both x86 and x64 [download x64 from Microsoft]
- Latest version 2015-2022
For our "SaaS/OEM Redistribution" customers, one big advantage of installing the C++ runtime is that it can be packaged and distributed as part of an MSI or Executable program installer.
Alternative Approach Windows Update
Some users prefer to get a successful fix by installing the Windows Update for Universal C++ Runtimes on Windows.
This approach is recommended by Microsoft for older Operating Systems such as Windows Server 2012, Windows 8 and Windows Vista.
