You need to install the cppcheck program to be able to usethe cppcheck-vs-addin. The plugin needs cppcheck to be installed, otherwise it will not work correctly and visual will report the error you see.

Furthermore cppcheck depends on microsoft packages but its installer doesnt provide it. For instance The latest cppcheck (1.72) depends on Visual 2015 packages (msvcp140.dll, vcruntime140.dll, etc...).

What you need to do :

• Download visual 2015 redistributable packages
• Install cppcheck version 1.7x
