Hello

In my programs and features, I have 18 versions of Microsoft Visual C++ Redistributable; I would like to know if I could remove some to free up space on my C drive and if so, which ones, because I don't know if the latest versions replace the data from the earlier ones by updating them; I am on Windows 10; attached is a screenshot of the list



Best regards

    Hello,

    Do not delete anything!

    Microsoft Visual C++ allows the execution of other programs and it is normal to have multiple versions.
    If you delete them, you will disrupt or make the execution of other programs impossible.

    Have a good day.
