Symptoms

When you use Microsoft Visual C++ 2013, you may encounter the following issues:

  • Heap corruption occurs because of a synchronization bug in SetLocale, and this triggers an access violation.

  • When you install an updated redistributable package, binaries for non-target architectures are removed. For example, after you install an update for an x86-based application, the x64 Visual C++ 2013 runtime libraries are missing. This fix makes sure that both versions of the Visual C++ redistributable are visible when you add or remove programs after installation of the update.

Resolution

This update for Microsoft Visual C++ 2013 Update 5 Redistributable Package is released as a download-only update and isn’t distributed through Windows Update. Redistribution of this update is allowed subject to the same license terms as granted by the Microsoft Visual Studio 2013 Update 5 release.
