I am trying to install Mysql on Windows 10 and Microsoft Visual C++ 2013 is requested as a requirement. I have the latest version of Visual Studio installed and as a consequence were installed also Microsoft Visual C++ 2017 and also Microsoft Visual C++ 2010.

  1. It seems to be unavailable on the Microsoft site version 2013. I do the search but it does not appear. Does anyone know if it is really unavailable?
  2. With a larger version than 2013 of "Microsoft Visual C++" the installation of Mysql should not work either?

    Have you used the microsoft web Plataform installer?

  • Thanks Anderson, but this installer also does not appear the 2013 version in the list.

Has several links out of the air of that version, but I found the link below where you can download the Microsoft Visual C++ 2013 Redistributable (VC12) most up-to-date:

Have a version major newer is not enough. Mysql when compiled used this version which has some specific dependencies on that compiler version. I found in that forum some additional information.

This dependence is quite normal, with time codebase is updated to use a newer version. PHP for example, up to version 5.6 uses VC11 (Microsoft Visual C++ 2012 Redistributable), PHP 7.0 and 7.1 use VC14 (Microsoft Visual C++ 2015 Redistributable).

About the concern with updates, Mysql 8 will depend on the VC14, being a newer version will have greater chances it is already installed.

  • Thank you @gmsantos. You have installed the 2013 version perfectly and Mysql has also installed it without problems now. About item 2, it’s kind of a rough Mysql thing. After all, if you are dependent on Microsoft and it, in turn, does not have to be compatible with anyone, then Mysql should predict this, otherwise it will be impossible to install it at some point. For now we’ll play...
