If I develop my software in Visual Studio 2008 SP1, I believe my clients need Visual Studio 2008 SP1 redistributables to run it. My question is, is there a natural way they can get the redistributables by Windows update or Windows SP1/2/3 without installing the redistributables by themselves?

(assuming c++) they generally need the same or better installed, and I don't think you want to rely of your users getting the Windows Updates before installing you application. – crashmstr May 11 '12 at 19:34

Your clients actually doesn't need any redistributables - only CLR (.NET Framework) installed

They *do* if the app is not .net and there is no guarantee that they have them installed or updated. – crashmstr May 11 '12 at 19:31
