Microsoft visual C++ 2015 redistribution (64) installation is slow what should I do?

Is it because MSVC is such a memory hog? It has so many add ons. You need a top of the range computer to run it. You could use the slimmed down version, Visual Studio Community. https://visualstudio.microsoft.com/vs/community/ Or even Visual Studio Code if you have a very slow computer. https://code.visualstudio.com/docs/languages/cpp
