“The program can’t start because MSVCR100.dll is missing from your computer.” #192

Closed Masterstone closed 7 years ago

Masterstone commented 8 years ago

Some users may get this error when running this as administrator. “The program can’t start because MSVCR100.dll is missing from your computer.”

What hides behind this name is the Microsoft Visual C++ Redistributable which can easily be downloaded on the Microsoft website as x86 or x64 edition:

32 bit: http://www.microsoft.com/download/en/details.aspx?id=5555

64 bit: http://www.microsoft.com/download/en/details.aspx?id=14632

To fix this I had to download and install both 32/64 bit versions of this

REPLACE THIS WITH DWT.LOG

Thank you, this worked for me too, on a clean Windows 10 installation. Indeed, even if my Win10 is x64, one needs to setup both x86 and x64 of the MSVCR100.dll redistributable run-time package. Many thanks, mate.
