Hi Eric,
Uninstall all of the version you have tried and use just SP 22 from here:
https://wiki.scn.sap.com/wiki/display/BOBJ/Crystal+Reports%2C+Developer+for+Visual+Studio+Downloads
READ and follow the info for SP 21, same is required for SP 22.
EXE is for the DEV PC with VS installed on it ONLY. Do not install the MSI's on your DEV PC.
MSI's are for redist ONLY.

Don, thank you for the response. The link you referred to is exactly where I found and downloaded "CRRuntime_64bit_13_0_22.msi". I ran this on the Client PC, not the Dev PC. I also ran the EXE file to update CR Developer on the Dev PC. So I think I already did everything you said. Do I need to open the RPT files and save them again now that the Dev PC has been updated?
Follow-up question: The Dev PC and the Client PC are both running Wind 10 64 bit, and therefore I used the 64 bit version of the installer. This is correct, right?
Thanks, Eric
Hi Erik,
Great, just make sure you uninstall everything first, don't mix versions.
CR for VS is for your app platform and not OS specific. So if you compile in x86 mode then distribute the 32 bit MSI, If you compile your app in 64 bit mode then distribute the 64 bit MSI.
Setting or leaving your project properties to AnyCPU relies on the OS to install the runtime and often generates and missing component error because your app is intended to be run in 32 mode.
It does not matter what OS you are using, it matter what your app is compiled in, default is 32 bit in VS.
Read all of the info on the WIKI page and it should be clearer
