Microsoft Visual Studio 2013 C++ Redistributables allows people to run software that was compiled for Windows using the Microsoft 2013 C++ compiler. Depending on whether you are using 32-bit or 64-bit windows, you will need to download and install one of the 32-bit or 64-bit redistributables. This only has to happen once, when you first install WorkOrder on a computer. IF YOU EXPERIENCE AN ERROR ABOUT A MISSING FILE SUCH AS MSVCR120.DLL WHEN STARTING WORKORDER, THE MOST LIKELY CAUSE IS THE MICROSOFT REDISTRIBUTABLES ARE NOT INSTALLED. The redistributables are free for anyone to install, and may be download directly from Microsoft at this location: https://www.microsoft.com/en-ca/download/details.aspx?id=40784 https://support.microsoft.com/en-ca/help/2977003/the-latest-supported-visual-c-downloads The MD5 checksums for the VS 2013 32-bit and 64-bit redistributables are as follows: 96b61b8e069832e6b809f24ea74567ba vcredist_vs2013_x64.exe 0fc525b6b7b96a87523daa7a0013c69d vcredist_vs2013_x86.exe Download and install the redistributables directly from Microsoft (e.g., see the URL above), or from the cached version on the C Code Run web site.

The new versions of WO require the 2017 redistributables, not the 2013 version. The MD5 checksum for the VS 2017 64-bit redistributables is: 1bd671ce0deaaa901841ae87d92b3606 vcredist_vs2017_x64.exe Stéphane Charette 2018-May-28
