Note: Each version of Visual Studio corresponded to a new .NET Framework release:

VS2002 - .NET 1.0
2003 - .NET 1.1
2005 - .NET 2.0
2008 - .NET 3.5
2010 - .NET 4.0
2012 - .NET 4.5

The ChilkatDotNet45.dll is for the .NET 4.5 Framework, and therefore needs the VC++ 2012 runtime to be present on the computer.

Likewise, the ChilkatDotNet4.dll is for the 4.0 Framework and needs the VC++ 2010 runtime. Trimble Tekla Structures 2020 build 56544 -x64-...

The ChilkatDotNet2.dll is for the 2.0/3.5 Frameworks and requires the VC++ 2005 runtime. (It is unlikely you'll find a computer that doesn't already have the VC++ 2005 runtime already installed.) This is a specific version of Trimble Tekla
