Final answer:

To check the Microsoft Visual C++ version, access the Control Panel, navigate to Programs and Features, and look for the Microsoft Visual C++ Redistributable package where the version number will be included in the package name.

Step-by-step explanation:

To check the Microsoft Visual C++ version installed on your system, you can follow these steps:

  1. Open the Control Panel on your Windows operating system.
  2. Go to Programs and Features or Add or Remove Programs, depending on your version of Windows.
  3. Scroll through the list of installed programs and look for Microsoft Visual C++ Redistributable packages.
  4. The version number is usually included in the name of the package, for example, Microsoft Visual C++ 2015 Redistributable (x64) - 14.0.24215.

You can also check the version by looking at the version number under the 'Version' column in the list of installed programs, which provides a more detailed version number.
