Without the VC++ Runtime you get an error when trying to run the release:

Unable to load emulator DLL
([...erts folder]\bin\beam.smp.dll)

Someone ran into this before on the elixir forum but the help was not updated.

Note: I have asked in the Erlang forum what the minimum version of the runtime is.

@gilbertbw I asked a similar question a while back and got no answer. See post below, which contains a link to where they determine it in the source.
