How to Build an SCCM Package to Remove End-of-Life Visual C++ Redistributables

Question

I am seeking support on how to create a package for SCCM that can remove the end-of-life versions of Visual C++ Redistributables including 2005, 2008, 2010, 2012, 2013, 2015, 2017, and 2015-2019 using a single source installer.

The challenge arises because these packages are installed with different node versions. I would like assistance in developing a solution that can effectively remove all of the mentioned versions from end-user devices.

Currently, there are 1,000 affected devices with various versions of this software, and a unified packaging solution from Microsoft would be greatly appreciated.

Thank you for your support.

Hi, @Munandar, Aris

Thank you for posting in Microsoft Q&A forum.

You may need to create separate package for each version of End-of-Life Visual C++ Redistributables, then put them into a application group, and deploy the application group to the device collection:
