There are individual attributes within the attributes files for the URL, checksum, and package name of each Visual C++ runtime major and minor version.
If you wish to install anything except the latest packages, you may set one of
node['vcruntime']['vc6']['version']node['vcruntime']['vc9']['version']node['vcruntime']['vc10']['version']node['vcruntime']['vc11']['version']node['vcruntime']['vc12']['version']node['vcruntime']['vc14']['version']
to the appropriate version.
It will install 32 bit version alongside 64bit version on 64bit systems.
As of cookbook version 2.0.0, the version of packages match the version value in Details on the installer, to facilitate matching for Inspec tests.
Versions in the same recipe replace prior versions except for Microsoft Visual C++ 2008.
