Where can I find a specific vertion of the Microsoft Visual studio redistributables package?

I need to package the VS redistributables as private assemblies (in a subdirectory of my application) by I do not have the right version of them (9.0.21022.8) in my Visual studio installation or my Windows/WinSxS folder.

On the MSDN website they only offer the latest update of the package, but the DLL I use depends on an older version.

Is there a place on the Microsoft website or somewhere else where I could download any version of the visual C++ redistributables package?

As of 2018, if you join the dev-essentials program you can get older versions. I've spent some hours looking for them too.

Microsoft download site actually keeps all the redistributables. However, finding specific version is not trivial. I recently had to look for this version of 2008 VC redistributables and here they are:

Please, don't forget that they contain a critical vulnerability and should be avoided whenever it's possible.
