@ -454,16 +454,31 @@ NSIS. You can download it from http://nsis.sourceforge.net[].
Note that the 32-bit version of NSIS will work for both 32-bit and
64-bit versions of Wireshark. NSIS v3 is required.
Note: If you do not yet have a copy of vcredist_x86.exe or vcredist_x64.exe in _./wireshark-win**XX**-libs_ (where *_XX_* is 32 or 64) you will need to download the appropriate file and place it in _./wireshark-win**XX**-libs_ before starting this step.
Note: For Visual Studio 2015 and earlier, if you do not yet have a copy
of vcredist_x86.exe or vcredist_x64.exe in _./wireshark-win**XX**-libs_
(where *_XX_* is 32 or 64) you will need to download the appropriate
file and place it in _./wireshark-win**XX**-libs_ before starting this
step.
If building an x86 version using a Visual Studio “Express” edition or an x64 version with any edition, then you must have the appropriate vcredist file for your compiler in the support libraries directory (_vcredist_x86.exe_ in _wireshark-32-libs_ or _vcredist_x64.exe_ in _wireshark-win64-libs_).
If building an x86 version using a Visual Studio 2015 or earlier
“Express” edition or an x64 version with any edi of Visual Studio
2015 or earlier, then you must have the appropriate vcredist file for
your compiler in the support libraries directory (_vcredist_x86.exe_ in
_wireshark-32-libs_ or _vcredist_x64.exe_ in _wireshark-win64-libs_).
The files can be located in the Visual Studio install directory for
non-Express edition builds, or downloaded from Microsoft at
https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/help/2977003/the-latest-supported-visual-c-downloads
for Express edition builds.
Note you must use the correct version of vcredist for your compiler, unfortunately they all have the same name (_vcredist_x86.exe_ or _vcredist_x64.exe_). You can use Windows Explorer and examine the “Properties -> Details” tab for a vcredist file to determine which compiler version the file is for use with.

For Visual Studio 2017 and later, all editions include the
redistributables, so you do not need to download them.
If you've closed the Visual Studio Command Prompt <<ChSetupPrepareCommandCom,prepare>> it again.
