Windowxs XP and ..\WinSxS\ subfolders

[Guest robbio]

Hi at all,

 

my problem concerns about the subfolders inside ...\WinSxS\ folder, in

particular the "x86_Microsoft.VC80.CRT_1fc8b3b9a1e18e3b*" folders.

These folders have the runtime libraries allowing to run programs,

developed with new development environment VS2005, under WindowsXP

(....VC90.. for VS2008).

When I install for the first time Windows XP, without any service pack, does

it contain these folders? that is ..\WinSxS\ and

"x86_Microsoft.VC80.CRT_1fc8b3b9a1e18e3b*" folders? (I installed a fresh

copy of WindowsXP with the Service Pack 3 inside it and after the

installation the ..\WinSxS\ folder has all subfolder I'm talking about)

If not so do these folders come with a Window Update or from a one of the

three service pack of WindowsXP?

If yes could you tell me where these information is on Microsoft site?

 

Thank you in advance

roberto

Those two are Visual C++ 2005 Redistributables and Visual C++ 2008

Redistributables. aka. Visual C++ Runtime libraries. I don't know if

they are part of Windows XP SP3 since I have not yet installed it. One

thing for sure though... They are not part of Windows XP SP2 since

AFAIK, Visual Studio 2005 doesn't exist yet at that time.
