Versions of Visual Basic 6?

[ms]

Years ago, I downloaded VB6 from the Karen Kenworthy site, which I feel is
trustworthy.

I have a number of utilities that need VB6, no issues.

Recently, I tried a game, it said "your version of VB6 is old, it needs a
newer version." Same thing with another program a few days ago.

Is there versions of VB6, if so, a URL for the "current version"?.

You don't have (or want) Visual Basic. What you want are the Visual
Basic *runtime* files...files needed by programs written with Visual
Basic but which do not include those files.

Thanks, dadiOH. There are Service Packs, so there are indeed updates.
