The IT-Services of our university insist in removing redistributables which are end of life / end of support from our computers for security reasons. This affects MS vcredist 2008 and 2010 which are required DLL's for Origins graphic export functionality (https://www.originlab.com/index.aspx?go=Support/DocumentationAndHelpCenter/Installation/Multi-userDeployment/MSIInstall#About%20Required%20Microsoft%20DLLs)
Is there any workaround to keep graphic export working without these DLL's or is there a chance that graphic export will be updated to work without these outdated DLL's? |

Thank you minimax,
that would make it easier for our users.
In between we found a workaround in copy and paste the graphic to a freeware like inkscape and export it there in required formats.

Hi jungb_Basel,
Thanks for the verification.
It seems that msvcr90.dll is essential to OS, while redist installs some other additional files.
Hopefully we can work out a solution so that Export Graph will work even without MS vcredist 2008 and 2010 in the next coming version (2022b).
But, we do not see workaround for the existing versions. |

Hello minimax,
yes they exist in
x86_microsoft.vc90.crt_1fc8b3b9a1e18e3b_9.0.30729.9625_none_508ef7e4bcbbe589
and in
amd64_microsoft.vc90.crt_1fc8b3b9a1e18e3b_9.0.30729.9625_none_08e1c10da83fbc83
on Windows 10 where VC++ 2008 Redist has been removed and even on our new installed Windows 10 clients which have never seen VC++ Redist 2008 before.
Sounds interesting.

Hi jungb_Basel,
Would you mind to help to check following as well?
Open Windows Explorer, go to folder
C:\Windows\WinSxS
search "msvcr90.dll" to see if it exists in any subfolder?

In general we just need any high quality/high resolution graphic which can be used on other operating systems like mac os or linux to be imported there for publications. I expect PNG or SVG would be best.

Hi jungb_Basel,
Aside from the MS vcredist 2008 and 2010 issue, what kinds of image format would you need in general?
like
EMF? PNG? PDF? SVG? or what else? |

Hi jungb_Basel,
We have removed VC redist 2010 but still require 64-bit VC redist 2008.
We are working on removing 2008.
