Windows 11
Hi
I want to install Virtual Box but Windows keeps telling me that I need to install Visual C++ Redistribution beforehand so Virtual Box will run properly.

I did as I was told and went off and fetched Visual C++ and installed it. I shut down the computer (went and had some dinner).

When I came back I again I tried to load VirtualBox and it keeps telling me I need to install Visual C++. No matter how many times I try, the same screen pops up telling me the same thing over and over.

I never had this problem in 10.

Is there anything I can do to install Virtual Box on 11?

Thanks a lot.

You need to make a note which version VC++ you need and download the actual version.
You also need to get the right one as far as 32bit/64bit
I believe you need this >> visual c++ 2019 redistributable package.
