I'm not sure whether this could be a problem or not.

I have installed `psqlodbc_x64.msi` of `REL-17_00_0006`.
I have checked the dependencies (with [Dependencies](https://github.com/lucasg/Dependencies)) of installed DLLs for a certain reason.

Only `pgxalib.dll` has a link to `VCRUNTIME140_1.dll`, which is not bundled in the psqlodbc folder. (While `vcruntime140.dll` is present)

I almost use psqlodbc with a Visual Studio 2022-enabled environment, so this won't be a problem for me.

The workaround is to install the Latest supported redistributable version downloadable from the MSFT site: https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/cpp/windows/latest-supported-vc-redist?view=msvc-170#latest-supported-redistributable-version
