[Bug]: Missing requirement for VC_redist.x64.exe causes "RuntimeError: Torch is not able to use GPU"

What happened?

On a clean windows installation with a Nvidia GPU when I try to follow the installation requirements I find that I encounter the "RuntimeError: Torch is not able to use GPU" error despite meeting all the requirements. I have found that the solution is to install VC_redist.x64.exe, which is not installed by default (although many/most users will already have it installed).

Steps to reproduce the problem

Clean install windows
Install python3, git, nvidia drivers
Attempt either of the two install methods (manual or automatic)

You might also be able to reproduce this problem by uninstalling VC_redist.x64.exe and attempting to launch the web UI.

What should have happened?

I believe the Windows requirements should include Visual C++ Redistributable, https://download.visualstudio.microsoft.com/download/pr/9613cb5b-2786-49cd-8d90-73abd90aa50a/CEE28F29F904524B7F645BCEC3DFDFE38F8269B001144CD909F5D9232890D33B/VC_redist.x64.exe

What browsers do you use to access the UI ?

Sysinfo

Here is a sysinfo file from the web UI after installing VC_redist.x64.exe: sysinfo_working.json
