Description

The Uthguard Launcher has a dependency on .NET 4.6 and the Visual C++ 2015 redistributable. I think adding dependency check to the installer would add significant value as not everyone that plays Uthgard will be tech savvy. The process a new user goes through to get up and running should be made a simple as possible.

Adding this feature should also reduce the amount of time staff spend on common launcher related issues, freeing them up for other tasks.

Reproduction Steps

Expected Behavior:
1. A user with only .NET 3.5 installed (The Visual C++ 2015 Redis is not installed) downloads and runs the Uthgard Launcher Setup.
2. They are prompted that '{0} version of .NET Installed.' Then re-direct to download/install .NET 4.6.
3. The installer then recognizes the C++ redistributable is missing and prompts with a download/install.
