Hi you guys,

I just wanted to update Visual C++ 2015 as requested on the Download-Main Page but the download isn't starting no matter what I do. Can someone help me?

After you press download, checkmark the x64 version, click next, and when it doesn't download immediately, click the "If your download does not start after 30 seconds, Click here" link, and then select the direct download link which will be under Download: Click Here.

...it's really dumb.

I had the same problem using Google Chrome to download another visual C++ redistribuable, simple fix : use another browser just to download the file (ie works fine, didn't test with firefox).

If you want to know why, it's because Chrome forbid mixing HTTPS and HTTP, and the downloading page is loaded through HTTPS but the file to download is loaded through HTTP. You can easily see that by opening the Chrome console (ctrl + shift + J on windows), you will see this :
Quote:Mixed Content: The page at 'https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/confirmation.aspx?id=48145' was loaded over HTTPS, but requested an insecure resource 'http://download.microsoft.com/download/9/3/F/93FCF1E7-E6A4-478B-96E7-D4B285925B00/vc_redist.x64.exe'. This request has been blocked; the content must be served over HTTPS.

EDIT : you can also directly use the link to the exe that you will find in the console to download the exe.
