April 28th, 2018

Instruction

An update to the Windows SDK for Windows 7 and .NET Framework 4 (Windows SDK 7.1) is now available. This update addresses the issue where Visual C++ Compilers and libraries that are installed with the Windows SDK are removed when Visual Studio 2010 Service Pack 1 is installed.

Our recommended install order is:

  1. Visual Studio 2010 en_visual_studio_2010_ultimate_x86_dvd_509116.iso

  2. Uinstall Microsoft Visual C++ 2010 x86 Redistributable Microsoft Visual C++ 2010 x64 Redistributable Why:

Visual C++ 2010 SP1 Compiler Update for the Windows SDK 7.1 You must have installed Windows SDK 7.1 in order to install the update. However, you do NOT have to have installed VS 2010 + SP1 – this update is also applicable to the standalone SDK.
