MS doppleganger packages.

Hello ALL!

After removing non-useful software(s), I figured out the MS packages having same name but took different places at a time.

Some of them are sharing same date, version etc.


What's this ?

That's interesting - if I had to guess, probably double listing referring to the same items - try to uninstall one of them and see what happens - they can be acquired again if any program needs them - usually the concerned program will ask you to download this and this for it to work

That's what I do. Something like this can easily be reinstalled if needed.

You noticed, right, that there are 2 different versions: one 32 bits and one 64 bits.
The 32 bits one is 99% always required.
The 64 bits, maybe not so much, but come on, they take so little space, 20-30-50 Mb.
