  • There is a C++ project on github I'd like to compile. The project's README says it was designed for Visual Studio 2015 and it requires Microsoft Visual C++ Redistributable for Visual Studio 2015. I checked my installed programs and saw I had "Microsoft Visual C++ 2015-2019 Redistributable", both x86 and x64 already installed so I moved on to the next step.

  • Visual Studio Uninstaller

  • Then I did a complete uninstall of the downloaded Visual Studio 2015 using this tool I found on reddit. Then I went to the ISO image once again and ran the installer, hoping this time, it would install the 2015 Redistributable now that the newer version was uninstalled.

  • WorkOS

    The modern identity platform for B2B SaaS. The APIs are flexible and easy-to-use, supporting authentication, user identity, and complex enterprise features like SSO and SCIM provisioning.
