1. Executive Summary Microsoft Visual C++ 2013 Redistributable Package (x64) is a system component required to run 64-bit applications developed with Microsoft Visual Studio 2013. It installs runtime libraries (DLLs) necessary for executing code compiled with this specific version of the Visual C++ compiler. Without this package, applications built with Visual C++ 2013 will fail to launch, typically displaying error messages like “The program can’t start because MSVCR120.dll is missing” .
