RuntimePack Description
It often might happen that you want to install an application on your computer, but an error is triggered, either during or before setup or upon launch. While reinstalling the software should solve this unpleasant issue, there are other ways to take care of the problem.
You can start by reading about the application’s requirements. This endeavor should fix the issue, but it might take a long time to look for all the pre-requisites online, download and install them one by one.
If you discover that the faulty installation is due to the absence of the Microsoft Visual C++ Redistributable Package or another missing library or component, you have two choices.
First, you can look for the Visual C++ runtime in the Microsoft Download Center (or on softpedia.com) and grab it from there. Nevertheless, you have to make sure you install the right version, the one your original application requires.
Secondly, you can opt for the RuntimePack, an easy-to-manage suite of components that includes all the versions of the Microsoft Visual C++ Redistributable Package from 2005 to 2015, both for x86 and x64 architectures, alongside other libraries (DLL and OCX files) that might be missing or not registered and thus, cause different Windows errors.
The latter option saves you a significant amount of time, as you just have to download a single package, not many individual ones, and go through a single setup process that requires a one-time confirmation. Furthermore, it automatically registers multiple system DLL or OCX files, whose absence might be the cause of the annoying errors you are experiencing.
To put it another way, RuntimePack adds extra runtime libraries in Windows. It includes most of the libraries and components that are recommended for installation in Windows, if not all. The advantage is that its deployment takes less time, and it is far simpler than installing individual components.
