Obsolete Software: Microsoft Visual C++ 2010 Redistributable Package Detected

Hello, we have received the info from our security department. Obsolete Software: Microsoft Visual C++ 2010 Redistributable Package Detected.

How can I update the Business Objects package 4.2 with the latest version of MS Visual C++ without affecting functionality?

What version of MS Visual C++ is included in SAP BI 4.3? Is it already version 2015-22?

We are upgrading to BI 4.3, but until then BI 4.2 must still work and the problem with MS Visual C++ 2010 must be solved.

best thanks, Andreas

UPDATE:

still required also for BI 4.3.

MS VC++ 2010 (x86)/(x64) not required for 4.3 SP03 & above version
