      Description

      Calling windeploy causes "Warning: Cannot find Visual Studio debug redistributable files". Windeployt tries to find files at X:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Visual Studio\2017\Community\VC\Redist, but inside there is only subfolders named MSVC\14.10.25008 and MSVC\14.10.25017. First contains vcredist_x64/32.exe and x64/x32 subfolders.

      Workaround: copy 

      X:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Visual Studio\2017\Community\VC\Redist\14.10.25008\*

      to 

      X:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Visual Studio\2017\Community\VC\Redist

      and windeploy will work fine.
