2025-11-30T01:44:23Z Microsoft 1.0.0 Visual C++ build tools workload for Visual Studio 2026 Build Tools ### Overview This package adds the Visual C++ build tools workload to an existing installation of Visual Studio 2026 Build Tools. The list of components included in this workload is shown [here](https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/visualstudio/install/workload-component-id-vs-build-tools?view=vs-2026#visual-c-build-tools). Visual Studio 2026 Build Tools must be installed first, for example using the Chocolatey package [visualstudio2026buildtools](https://chocolatey.org/packages/visualstudio2026buildtools). ### Customizations The package passes all package parameters to the Visual Studio installer, enabling full customization of the installation. The possible parameters are [described here](https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/visualstudio/install/use-command-line-parameters-to-install-visual-studio?view=vs-2026). The package passes `--norestart --includeRecommended` by default, and `--quiet`, unless `--passive` is specified in the package parameters. By default, the package installs components required by and recommended for the workload. Package parameters can be used to adjust this behavior: - `--no-includeRecommended` - Does not include the recommended components. - `--includeOptional` - Includes the optional components. Example 1. Installing the workload, including recommended, but not optional components: choco install visualstudio2026-workload-vctools --package-parameters "--includeRecommended" Example 2. Installing the workload, including all recommended and optional components: choco install visualstudio2026-workload-vctools --package-parameters "--includeOptional" Example 3. Installing the workload, including only required components: choco install visualstudio2026-workload-vctools --package-parameters "--no-includeRecommended" [More package parameter examples](https://github.com/jberezanski/ChocolateyPackages/blob/master/chocolatey-visualstudio.extension/EXAMPLES.md) microsoft visual studio visualstudio vs vs18 2026 workload .net build tools c++ atl mfc admin https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/legal/intellectualproperty/permissions 2025-11-11T23:55:14.407 chocolatey-visualstudio.extension:1.13.0:|visualstudio-installer:2.0.7:|visualstudio2026buildtools:18.0.0:|vcredist140:14.44.35211: 0 23 https://community.chocolatey.org/packages/visualstudio2026-workload-vctools/1.0.0 https://community.chocolatey.org/package/ReportAbuse/visualstudio2026-workload-vctools/1.0.0 https://rawcdn.githack.com/jberezanski/ChocolateyPackages/0e962f3d7328af29a6382130db5f0b5239970a4d/icons/vs2026.png true true false 2025-11-11T23:55:14.407 https://visualstudio.microsoft.com/license-terms/ false nOr9Onu1ummcCjZn++T9QDaSDCVbdPnwpjWz3XkRILLj+wngquAxi82egZEMcn6YBT1TIVmdapsvRAdn6vG3RA== SHA512 4343 https://visualstudio.microsoft.com/ ##### Software [Visual Studio 2026 release notes](https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/visualstudio/releases/2026/release-notes) ##### Package 1.0.0: - Initial package release. https://github.com/jberezanski/ChocolateyPackages/tree/master/visualstudio2026-workload-vctools https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/visualstudio/ide/ https://developercommunity.visualstudio.com/ true Approved Waiting https://gist.github.com/choco-bot/9e57b2385520c1f3921ccd99f6775c1e Exempted 2025-11-21T18:38:34.137 Passing 2025-11-16T05:46:22.66 2025-11-30T01:44:20.843 2025-11-30T01:44:20.843 flcdrg false Checked 2025-11-30T02:46:02.4967184Z NotFlagged 2025-11-27T12:40:20.957 None
