Win 10 Creators Edition event log error

I have uninstalled and re-installed Virtual CD and I am getting this error in the event log:

Activation context generation failed for "C:\Program Files (x86)\Virtual CD v10\API\examples\MFC\VcdAPITest\Debug\x64\VcdAPITest64.exe". Dependent Assembly Microsoft.VC90.DebugCRT,processorArchitecture="amd64",publicKeyToken="1fc8b3b9a1e18e3b",type="win32",version="9.0.21022.8" could not be found. Please use sxstrace.exe for detailed diagnosis.

Win10 Version 1703 Build 15063.13

VcdAPITest64.exe

This error can be ignored as VcdAPITest64.exe is only an example app for the Virtual CD API (in fact there is another bug which would prevent VcdAPITest64.exe to be executed anyway).

However you might be able to get rid of this error by installing the Microsoft Visual C++ 2008 SP1 Redistributable Package (x86) (and everntually additionally the Microsoft Visual C++ 2005 SP1 Redistributable Package (x86).
