I feel a little stupid asking this question, but I hope that this might be helpful to others as well.
Background: We/I are developing some software with Visual Studio 2008 SP1 (VC9). We would like to provide the vcredist along the software on the cd.
Now, I am used to ask google "download vcredist 2008 sp1" and usually it leads me to the following (also bookmarked) web pages:
- https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=5582 (32 bit)
- https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=2092 (64 bit)
I think I have downloaded different versions (9.0.30729.01 and later 9.0.30729.17) from that same URL as they came available. Today, only the .17 is available on that page. Now, a customer complained and told me that there is a 9.0.30729.6161 available, but I can't find it. The closest I could get was 9.0.30729.5677:
- When I searched google for that specific version, it lead me to this page: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/2538243 which is saying, that a security update is available.
- The linked Security Bulletin https://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/security/bulletin/ms11-025 lists the vcredist 2008 sp1 as affected and as a new link to something that seems to be an updated version of the vcredist 2008 sp1, although it has a slightly different name, in that it also bears the "mfc" in it's name: https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=26368
- File names, file sizes and version numbers suggest these are updated versions of the vcredist 2008 sp1. This is the version 9.0.30729.5677
Is there ONE URL where I can always pull the newest version ?
Is there some kind of notification system (email list, rss-feed, ...) that informs me about a new vcredist ?
