Monogame pipeline tool not working.

I’m running Windows 8.1 Visual Studio 2017 Monogme 3.6. I’ve got FreeImage.dll on my system. Here’s the error message:
location of file Importer 'TextureImporter' had unexpeted faliure! Sytem.DllNotFoundExpecion: Unable to load DLL 'FreeImage': The specified module could not be found. (Expectation from HRESULT: 0x8007007E)
And so on.

I found out that you have to install the C++ Res Packages 2012 and 2013

Yes, you need the VC++ 2012 Redist. Here’s the link to the official download for people running into this: https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=30679
