I attempted to install the Microsoft Visual C++ package on Windows Server Core 2019 using silent mode. The installation process completed successfully. However, when I tried to install another application that required on Microsoft Visual C++ (version 11.0), it couldn't detect that the necessary components were already installed on my machine. Is there an alternative method or solution for installing these Microsoft Visual C++ packages on Windows Server Core?

Might check with the application developer whether 32 or 64 bit version is required.

Hello, thank you for your support.
my windows server core 2019 is 64bit . and also that is the exacte application I downloaded and try to install it ( in fact, I downloaded all version tried them one by one ) but no result
Yes Server 2019 is in fact a 64 bit operating system but it is capable of running 32 bit applications, so I'd suggest checking with the application developer about support for Server 2019 and any prerequisites or requirements.
Actually the application has been installed successfully in Windows server 2019 and 2022 also (full desktop ) .
I have this issue of C++ Ms visual ( 11.0) are not detectable in Windows server core 2019 and 2022 too .
These forums support the windows operating system. The application developer will be your best resource to troubleshoot / debug the application installation.

yes actualy, I skipped the error of "C++ packages not existe in my machine" and installed the app , when trying to excute it siad that AVIFIL32.dll is missing !
I don't know if copying thoses missing dll from windows server (full desktop) to the core server is a good idea ?

Well it isn't really a supported operation. The application developer would be in the best position to know if installing on Server 2019 core is possible and how best to debug the installation.
