Description

When I install Notepad Next v0.6.3 on a clean Windows 10 machine, I get the error:

![Screenshot_20230716_221750](https://github.com/dail8859/NotepadNext/assets/28017860/358a0349-2b2a-45fa-9d40-dbfb6a1b305c)

I guess it requires Microsoft Visual C++ Redistributable Packages for Visual Studio 2015? Ideally, the installer would either fetch the redistributable or throw an error to notify the user that this is a requirement (also, that seems like a pretty outdated dependency). Ideally, such shenanigans wouldn't even be needed (e.g. if you eliminate such dependencies and ship whatever is required with the installer).
