Hello.
My Control Panel lists these programs related to Microsoft Visual C++:
Microsoft Visual C++ 2013 Redistributable (x86) - 12.0.30501
Microsoft Visual C++ 2013 Redistributable (x64) - 12.0.30501
Microsoft Visual Studio 2010 Tools for Office Runtime (x64)
Microsoft Visual C++ 2010 Redistributable (x86) - 10.0.40219
Microsoft Visual C++ 2010 Redistributable (x64) - 10.0.40219
Microsoft Visual C++ 2008 Redistributable (x86) - 9.0.21022
Microsoft Visual C++ 2008 Redistributable (x86) - 9.0.30729.6161
Microsoft Visual C++ 2005 Redistributable
Microsoft Visual C++ 2005 Redistributable (x64)
I know they have been installed by other programs, but I suspect that when I uninstall one of the latter it does not uninstall the corresponding redistributable. So how can I know what installed each of them and, the most important, which currently installed programs eventually depend on each of these Microsoft Visual C++ Redistributables?
(The Microsoft Visual Studio 2010 Tools for Office Runtime (x64) seems a special case, probably related to Microsoft Office itself, so here is a second question: Since I have already uninstalled both the whole Office 2016 preview and OneNote 2013, can I safely uninstall it, or should I check for something else still needing it?)
Thank you.
