[XP11] X-Plane Aircraft requring C++ Redistributables
Many X-Plane aircraft and addons use Microsoft C ++ Redistributables, specifically, the 64 Bit versions. While these redistributables do belong to Windows, they are not always installed by default. They must be subsequently installed.
Download links to the most common C ++ 64bit Redistributables:
Once downloaded, please ensure you install each redistributable one by one.
Even if a redistributable appears installed, we recommend attempting to
install it again and sometimes libraries may be broken or corrupted. The
installer will automatically repair any of these issues
All other C ++ redistributables can be found here: https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/help/2977003/the-latest-supported-visual-c-downloads. We generally find C ++ 64bit for 2017 is important.
In addition to C ++ redistributables, we find .NET version 3.5 and 4.6 or higher are sometimes required for some addons.
