I am not sure why you keep calling this library MagickImage.Net but the name is Magick.NET. Here is an answer to your questions:
- That sounds impossible, can you double check this? Maybe your machine already had the VC++ Redistributable installed?
- What is your question? If it is if you really need the VC++ Redistributable then the answer is: yes always.
- Correct, the VC++ redistributable (x86) needs to be installed when you use the 32 bit version of Magick.NET.
- You should not use the AnyCPU version of Magick.NET when your application targets x64. You only need the AnyCPU version of Magick.NET when your application targets AnyCPU. When you do this you need to install the x64 and the x86 version of the VC++ Redistributables because the AnyCPU version of Magick.NET will use the x86 or the x64 version depending on the platform of your application pool.
- I don't have an answer to this question. You will have to figure that out yourself. If you do please reply to this topic so other users of Magick.NET will also get the information.
