vcruntime cookbook

Install Microsoft Visual C++ redistributables with vcruntime_install. Requires Chef Infra Client 16+ and Windows 10/11 or Windows Server 2016, 2019, 2022 or 2025 for the current runtime.

vcruntime_install 'current runtime'

The default installs the current v14 runtime, version 14.52.37029.0. It installs x64 and x86 bundles on a 64-bit host, or x86 on a 32-bit host. Microsoft's x64 bundle includes ARM64 binaries for ARM64 Windows. Older runtime families are explicit compatibility choices; they are no longer installed by default.

See the resource reference, migration guide and testing guide.
