For Master Data Management v11.5.0 and Master Data Management v11.6.0 installation on Windows, installation of Microsoft Visual C++ is a pre-requisite.

 

Issue

The below Exception will be noticed in <MDM_INSTALL_DIR>/logs/madconfig/Configure_MasterDataManagement_<TIMESTAMP>.log when Microsoft Visual C++ is not installed.
