    Hi @Rafał Domański, 

    Welcome to Microsoft Q&A! 

    Could you tell me how you install the Microsoft Visual C++ 2022 x86 Minimum Runtime – 14.36.32532

    Please re-download the latest supported Microsoft Visual C++ Redistributable x86 version from the page.

    Then, use the Program Install and Uninstall troubleshooter tool to install it again. 

    Sincerely,

    Anna

    I just fixed this problem myself! You have to repair the installation using an installer of the same version. Then you will be able to uninstall it!

    I found mine here: https://my.visualstudio.com/Downloads/ Searching "C++ Redistributable" brought up the options. It was a little tricky to find the right version because the version number listed and the version number when I opened the installer did not match, so it was a bit of trial and error finding the right one. But, I found it and was able to repair then uninstall!
