I will mention one scenario where it becomes annoying. In the corporate/enterprise world there are extra layers to think about. Essentially, the security behind the libraries. For example, a vulnerability scanner we use has detected that C++ Redistributable for 2010 (both x86 and x64) are no longer supported by Microsoft since 2020. So I can uninstall it, but there is a chance an application will stop working all together as the developer of the third-party application hasn't changed anything on their end. I won't necessarily know this as i see no way of seeing what installed apps reference what library. Great Video!

All of this is an unnecessary discussion. These Redistributales have an approximate package size of 20-25 MB. Even if you have installed 10 of these Redistributals that's approx. 250 MB in total. This is negligibly small compared to the size of today's hard drives in the TB range. Since it's difficult for laypeople to find out which package a special application is accessing, you should better keep your fingers from uninstalling Redistributales (this is quite time consuming even for a professional).

PSA: "Outdated" packages CAN and WILL affect your performance. I just came here after going crazy for a weekend, even considering buying a new power supply, ram, or having a computer sent back in for repair!!! I have this new computer, and it started lagging during loading scenes, scrolling, turning around etc. In the end what happened was that I installed an old game (AC 1) which came with an old redistributable. And this was buggy on my win11 computer and caused all this lag and stuttering. I deinstalled that package, restarted and everything was back to normal. As informative as this is, be aware that old packages can have a negative effect and I would have been saved a lot of sanity if I had known that before.

I'd just like to say--as a former Apple user--this multiplicity of chaos is a mark of unsound minds at Microsoft. Perhaps Billy should have finished college after all?

If there are no problems that result, then nothing. On the other hand if a program stops working because of this, then you'll need to reinstall that program.

@@myst4351 Varies based on the program. It usually means getting the original CD, DVD, or download and running the setup program again. To avoid passing your mom off even more though, a) come clean and tell her what happens. b) BACK UP before you do anything. You don't want to accidentally lose even more if something goes wrong.

If I have multiple of the same one, let's say three 2012's which are the same, do I need all of them?
@askleonotenboom3 жыл бұрын
You won't have multiples of the exact same one. There's SOMETHING different about them, and I'd leave them alone.

Nope. I mean, you can, but you'll likely break things as you do so. LEAVE THEM ALONE unless they're actually causing you a problem.
