 # Microsoft Visual C++ Redistributable latest supported downloads
 
-The Visual C++ Redistributable installs Microsoft C and C++ (MSVC) runtime libraries. These libraries are required by many applications built by using Microsoft C and C++ tools. If your app uses those libraries, a Microsoft Visual C++ Redistributable package must be installed on the target system before you install your app. The Redistributable package architecture must match your app's target architecture. The Redistributable version must be at least as recent as the MSVC build toolset used to build your app. We recommend you use the latest Redistributable available for your version of Visual Studio, with some exceptions noted below.

 ### Notes
 
-- Visual Studio versions since Visual Studio 2015 share the same Redistributable files. For example, any apps built by the Visual Studio 2015, 2017, 2019, or 2022 toolsets can use the latest Microsoft Visual C++ Redistributable. However, the version of the Microsoft Visual C++ Redistributable installed on the machine must be the same or higher than the version of the Visual C++ toolset used to create your application. For more information about which version of the Redistributable to install, see [Determining which DLLs to redistribute](determining-which-dlls-to-redistribute.md).

+- The Visual C++ Redistributable supports several command-line options. The `/?`, `/h`, or `/help` options display a pop-up dialog that lists the available options. You may specify `/install` to install, `/repair` to repair, or `/uninstall` to uninstall the Redistributable. The `/layout` option copies the complete contents of the Redistributable in the current directory. By default, the Redistributable prompts the user for information and whether to restart after installation. You can specify the `/passive` option, which displays progress, but doesn't otherwise require user interaction. You can also specify a `/quiet` option, which doesn't display any UI or require any user interaction. The `/norestart` option suppresses any attempts to restart. By default, a log file is created in *`%TEMP%`*. You can use `/log filename.txt` to log to a specific file.
