Steamworks Common Redistributables are a collection of software components that many games rely on to function correctly. These redistributables are automatically installed by Steam when a game that requires them is launched for the first time. This simplifies the installation process for players and ensures that games have the necessary dependencies.
Here's a breakdown of important aspects:
What they are: They consist of common libraries and runtimes like DirectX, Visual C++ Runtimes, and .NET Framework.
Why they're needed: Many games are built using these common libraries. Without them, the game might not launch or could experience crashes and other issues.
Steam's Role: Steam automatically detects which redistributables a game requires and installs them. This happens silently in the background during the first launch, avoiding manual downloads and installations for the user.
Troubleshooting: Sometimes, problems can still arise. If a game fails to launch or reports missing DLL files, manually reinstalling the Redistributables might be necessary. This can often be done by navigating to the game's installation folder and looking for a "_CommonRedist" or similar folder, where the installers for these components are typically located.
