If it doesn't already, then the VC redist needs to have a baseline UCRT that it deploys if there isn't already a newer one provided by Windows Update.
That is how it is supposed to work. If you're seeing otherwise we're interested in a bug report / repro steps.

You can't have a redist that depends on something that isn't bundled with it or known to always already be present on the system. And some people disable updates, or they fail, or otherwise aren't installed in time. _______________________________________________ Unsubscribe & other changes: https://na01.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=http%3A%2F%2Flists.boost.org%2Fmailman%2Flistinfo.cgi%2Fboost&data=01%7C01%7Cbion%40microsoft.com%7C4c541cf462e64977551308d3f2ede3fc%7C72f988bf86f141af91ab2d7cd011db47%7C1&sdata=%2BVaYydKll2leOEeI%2Fy8ODMImTXyzgLaJlEWX6Rz67Rc%3D&reserved=0
