    Hi Chris,

    I think the best guide is the original runtime include script (.sbi). For example, the "rt_vc2010redist_x86.sbi" for vcredist_x86 and the "rt_directx90.sbi" for DirectX. It comes with full scource codes.

    In other words, you can already redistribute vcredist_x64_2010 and DirectX_aug2009_redist from your install. You only have to download it from the Microsoft side and use it in your install.

    Is there a guide anywhere how to do this at all?

    Piotr,

    BTW, I think the latest DirectX 9 redistributable is "directx_Jun2010_redist.exe" (June 2010). If we decide to update the "rt_directx90.sbi" DirectX include script then we'll update it to this build.
