win 2012 安装mysql 5.7.20 及报错 This application requires Visual Studio 2013 Redistributable. Please ins

安装过程其实挺简单，基本上下一步下一步，百度一大把

本文重点讲解安装过程中报错 This application requires Visual Studio 2013 Redistributable. Please install the Redistributable then run this installer again. 的解决办法，

错误信息大致如下：

1: Action 10:59:21: INSTALL.
1: 1: MySQL Server 5.7 2: {F08E9C75-A42E-4962-8760-4CBD9CF35D7A}

网上找答案，国内相关问题解答真是少的一笔，一堆链接全是国外站点，最终还是在程序员bug解决圣地 stackoverflow 找到解决方案。地址如下：

问题原因大体是mysql自动安装的Visual C++ Redistributable 路径不对或者即使是x64的mysql识别的也是x86的安装路径，所以解决方案是从微软手动下载 Visual C++ Redistributable安装 ，简体中文微软官方下载路径为：https://www.microsoft.com/zh-CN/download/details.aspx?id=40784 ，点击下载按钮并将vcredist_x64和vcredist_86都下载下来，先安装vcredist_x64后尝试重新安装mysql 5.7.20 ，假如依然报错，然后安装vcredist_x86后再次安装mysql 问题解决。
