Not really. For a long time Microsoft distributes the Visual C++
Redistributable for Visual Studio 2015-2019 which works for all
PHP 7 and 8 (so far).
Anyway, the sources of that manual page are at
<https://github.com/php/doc-en/blob/98f2a733bc07e1c6d8fddb1d865b09fd79bdbea2/install/windows/index.xml#L33>.

Description:
------------
the manual page: https://php.net/install.windows.requirements
mentions the requirements regarding 'Microsoft Visual C++ Redistributable' for php 5 and
php 7.
it misses this instructions for php8 (which requires a newer version then php 7.4).
would be great this could be added.
I tried finding the source for for this manual page on the github organisation, but wasn't able
to find it
