This list might be out of date or incomplete, for further reference see:

NOTE:

  • Scrollbars will be red without cef_100_percent.pak or cef_200_percent.pak (depending on your DPI). If you disable pak loading you will also have the same problem.
  • ** Locales are conditionally required, features like context menus will show empty items without them. Fonts may show smaller than they should. The CEF documentation on the subject states: Without these files arbitrary Web components may display incorrectly.

Visual C++

For versions 65 and above you will need Visual C++ Redistributable Packages for Visual Studio 2015
