If the application requires the Visual C++ redistributable runtimes, generally having them in the same directory as the application's executable is sufficient. We do this with a number of our applications.
Otherwise, if a specific DLL needs to be registered, it gets a little bit more complicated. Can you provide further information, or a link to your application so we can look at it?
