### Notes

- Visual Studio versions since Visual Studio 2015 share the same redistributable files. For example, the latest Microsoft Visual C++ Redistributable can be used by apps built using the Visual Studio 2015, 2017, or 2019 toolsets. 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).

- **Windows XP Support**: Microsoft ended support for Windows XP on April 8, 2014. While the current version of the Visual C++ Redistributable for Visual Studio 2015-2019 only supports Windows Vista, 7, 8.1, 10, and 11, older versions of the C++ Redistributable can be installed on Windows XP. The last version of the C++ Redistributable for Visual Studio 2015-2019 that works on Windows XP shipped in Visual Studio 2019 version 16.7 (file versions starting with **14.27**). The redistributable file is available in the [my.visualstudio.com](https://my.visualstudio.com/) Downloads section, as [Visual C++ Redistributable for Visual Studio 2019 - Version 16.7](https://my.visualstudio.com/Downloads?q=Redistributable%20for%20Visual%20Studio%202019%20Version%2016.7). To download the files, select the platform and language you need, and then choose the Download button.
