Deploying Universal CRT DLLs

640 Views Asked by At

If I were to deploy an unmanaged application that was built using Visual Studio 2015 and that was linked dynamically to CRT, is it sufficient to just install the appropriate vcredist_.exe redistributables on the target PC? Reason I am asking is, starting VS 2015, we have been bestowed with Universal CRT and I am not sure if the aforementioned redistributable package already contains the UCRT DLLs too.

I have read the September 11, 2015 update to this blog post: https://blogs.msdn.microsoft.com/vcblog/2015/03/03/introducing-the-universal-crt/. It says app-local deployment is possible but what if we want to go the re-distributable way?

Can someone confirm?
