What are the additional components?
The additional components include Microsoft Visual C++ Redistributable Packages and .NET Framework. These components come as small standalone installers or Windows Update packages and they are provided by Microsoft for free.
Do I need to install those components manually?
No. By default, our installer will install all the required components automatically. You may however need to install them manually in some situations, such as using the "unpack files" option in the installer, or if the automatic installation fails for some reason.
