Installing Microsoft Visual C++ 2015-2022 Redistributable (x64) - 14.42.34438

Question

Hello,

I am using WiX v3 to install Microsoft Visual C++ 2015-2022 Redistributable (x64) if it is missing before my app. But I can't find the following data for the latest version 14.42.34438:

• DownloadUrl in a form of a forward link similar to the e.g. 'http://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?LinkId=615460'
• CertificatePublicKey
• CertificateThumbprint
• Hash

Hi ,

I'm sorry, I misunderstood that I extracted the keys that I needed from the file to put in the WIX bootstrap.

DownloadUrl https://aka.ms/vs/17/release/vc_redist.x64.exe

PublicKey: MIIBCgKCAQEAtCg32mOdDA6rBBnZSMwxwXegqiDEUFlvQH9Sxww07hY3w7L52tJxLg0mCZjcszQddI6W4NJYb5E9QM319kyyE0l8EvA/pgcxgljDP8E6XIlgVf6W40ms286Cr0azaA1f7vaJjjNhGsMqOSSSXTZDNnfKs5ENG0bkXeB2q5hrp0qLsm/TWO3oFjeROZVHN2tgETswHR3WKTm6QjnXgGNj+V6rSZJO/WkTq

Hi,

I think this is not an answer to my question. I am creating application installer using WiX which should install Microsoft Visual C++ 2015-2022 Redistributable (x64) - 14.42.34438 automatically on an user machine if it doesn't exists. In order to do so I need to feed some data into the installer and I can't find relevant data about:

• DownloadUrl in a form of a forward link
• CertificatePublicKey
• CertificateThumbprint
• Hash

Try uninstalling using Fix It
