Where to download specific SxS assembly versions

Hi,

I need to get hold of a specific version of the
Microsoft.VC80.DebugCRT assembly. Is there anywhere I can download it?

Hi dom!

No. Debug-DLLs are not redistributable.
You need to install VC2005 VC++ Express Edition.

I did, and it has installed the debug DLL's.

Trouble is, I am trying to run a third party debug exe which came with
a manifest file but no assemblies. The manifest is calling for a
different version of the DebugCRT.

I tried editing the manifest to point at the assembly version I have
installed, it runs up but crashes (ie it doesn't complain about not
finding the DLL anymore, it crashes later on). I have a very recent VC+
+, but the exe manifest is looking for something a few versions
earlier.

It could be something else I suppose, but I had this working before on
different kit (with VC++ pro). I suspect if I ahd the right assembly
it would work.

Strikes me you'll need to contact the third party to get a proper
release version. They can't legally redistribute the Debug CRT's so
it's their goof-up.
