Hi,

But there is a SP1 for Microsoft Visual C++ 2005 here; (x86)

Also a SP1 for Microsoft Visual C++ 2005 here; (X64)

The links used by WSUSOU are up to date!
They deliver version 8.0.50727.6195 (file date 2011-05-17).

The Visual C++ 2005 SP1 links are outdated, they deliver version 8.0.50727.762 (file date 2007-02-18).

The file properties of vcredist2005_x*.exe do not show the real version [6.0.2900.2180 (version of CAB Extractor)], you have to unpack the files to get the real version.

Thank you harry,

M$ are confusing, I can now clearly see that I have Three different files two of which the file properties match.

I have another program that needs a newer CPP 2005 than what is bundled in it's MSI and I need to install after.
I have the "SP1" stored with the MSI, so I started looking into what WSUS used and this lead to the confusion.
