Installing Microsoft C and C++ (MSVC) runtime libraries
If you intend to use the embedded MariaDB as the data store, we recommend that you install the Microsoft C and C++ (MSVC) runtime libraries from Microsoft Visual C++ Redistributable 10.29.30133.0 or later. With older versions of these libraries, MariaDB will replace the library files during installation and you may need to restart any applications that are using these libraries.
