Prerequisites to apply this security update

To install this security update, you must have Microsoft Visual Basic Scripting Edition (VBScript) 5.8 installed on the computer.

VBScript 5.8 is installed by the following:

  • Internet Explorer 8

  • Internet Explorer 9.0

  • Internet Explorer 10.0

  • Internet Explorer 11.0

  • Windows 7 (x86-based and x64-based)

  • Windows 8.1 (x86-based and x64-based)

  • Windows RT 8.1

  • Windows 2012 R2 (x64-based)

To determine the version of VBScript that is installed on the computer, follow these steps:

  1. Open Windows Explorer.

  2. Locate the following directory:

    %systemroot% \System32

  3. Right-click the Vbscript.dll file, and then click

    Properties.

  4. Click the Details tab to view the contents of the File Version field. For example, the file version may be 5.8.6001.18702.

If the file version starts with 5.8, as it does in the example, VBScript 5.8 is installed on the computer.
