Issue #9262
closedVisual C++ text does not mention Windows
0%
Description
This is kind of a silly oops, but I think we should make a small change to the Visual C++ 2015 notice. Currently it says this:
The development versions require the 64-bit Visual C++ redistributable for Visual Studio 2015 to be installed.
But that doesn't mention that the 64-bit Visual C++ redistributable is only required for Windows builds to run. It seems silly to have that over a page with many operating systems. So to fix it we just make it windows specific. Since we have a new release coming, I removed the development builds limitation.
Windows systems require the 64-bit Visual C++ redistributable for Visual Studio 2015 to be installed.
Feel free to bikeshed the precise wording!

Sounds good to me. By the way. Will we be bundling the redist in the 5.0 installer?
