(why MS doesn't ship ALL their runtimes with eh OS is beyond me...) As it stands now, there are two options: 1) users need to install something else themselves: the runtime, that particular dll, the compiler... 2) every package maintainer that uses C++ needs to ship that dll with the binary wheels.
