Something strange happen, my pcsx2 build 2316 can run without  Visual C++ 2015 redist.
Is it because I have this Visual C++ 2013 redist installed for other program?
The 2017 redists are backwards compatible with 2015.

Don't make sense, but it's running fine with pcsx2.

Make sense. So you can delete all the old one and just use this vc++ 2017 ?
You should keep the old one, PC games still require a specific version of the redistributable that they install on their own.

I thought pc games that require vc++ will come together with it. I am not playing any pc game, I have beem playing pcsx2.
I have a question, why my pcsx2 able to run without vc++ 2015 and able to run with the old vc++ 2013 ?
PCSX2 doesn't use the 2013 redists. They use 2015, which is also included in 2017 now.
