install VC++ Debug Runtime Distributable

Question

Is there anyway to install or have VC++ Debug Runtime Distributable without installing Visual Studio ? Just to run a dll that has been compiled in debug mode using VS2013 on

Answer 1

OP was asking about 2013, but the title is general, so..

I just wanted to point out that in newer Visual Studio releases with the "select what you want" installer, for the debug runtime you need just "tools" or "build tools" (e.g. VC++ 2017 version 15.9 v14.16 latest v141 tools or MSVC v142 - VS 2019 C++ Build Tools, not to be confused with the toolset)

As for where you can find the libs, VS 2015 still has them basically in the same path outlined in Chuck's answer. From 2017, you should have something like:

\Microsoft Visual Studio\2017\Community\VC\Redist\MSVC\14.16.27012\debug_nonredist
