Question about installing Network Visual C++ and NetFrame Updates
Jul 15, 2017 16:21:49 #
Macphun just made available as a Beta option, their Luminar Photo editing program for Windows. When I downloaded their Beta, the program wouldn't install. I sent a message to Macphun support and this was their response. Is there any validity to this and am going to be opening up a can of worms be downloading this stuff. It's all Greek to me. LOL. How about it? Thanks in advance for your responses.
Please try to fix the issue by installing Visual C++ and NET Framework updates.
Download NET Framework 4.6.1: https://www.microsoft.com/en-US/download/details.aspx?id=49982
Here's a link to Visual C++ 2015 https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=48145
It's better to have C++ 2013 installed as well: https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=40784
All links should lead to official Microsoft resources.
Let me know if any assistance is needed.
Cheers!

I can't answer your question but I would install the newer NET Framework. C++ and Visual C++ are programming languages. No idea why you would need them.

If their program was written using software from Microsoft you would need to down load them. The NET framework is needed by programs written by any of the current Microsoft programming package and the C++ and Visual C++ are also needed if the program was written with those languages. So the requirements is legit but there is possible conflict with version. I don't know exactly how but it's a pain to fix that.

C++ is a compiled language so I don't understand why you would need the language. Don't know about Visual C++.

Back in the old days compiled languages don't need anything. Today most of the languages require runtime library to run.

I guess that shows how old I am. Used to program in Fortran on a DEC PDP-8.

As others have said, some programs rely on an intermediate (middleware) layer to operate properly. Many applications do this. The genuine Microsoft links are a trusted source, so go ahead and do what they suggest.

(1) they got sloppy and forgot to include RTS as part of this build {more likely}
(2) they have low-priced license that doesn't allow them to include RTS {less likely}
Incidentally, at one time, as a software engineer at a company developing Windows-based software, I was backup "build engineer"; making something which automatically installs itself is more complicated than you might think.

Runtime probably wasn't included because the software is a beta, probably full of bugs and missing features. Installing c++ runtime won't hurt anything. I'd guess you already have several versions installed from other programs you installed. This was my C++ install list.
