clean install on Win10 - msvcr100.dll was not found #50

Just ran the script to install on a fresh installation of Windows 10 Pro. Launching the Windows Emulation station shortcut on the desktop, I get ; emulatoinstation.exe - System Error The code execution cannot proceed because MSVCR200.dll was not found. Reinstalling the program may fix this problem." Basic googling for correcting this error suggests reinstalling visual C++2010 SP1 updates - which I did to no effect.

Hey mate,

Been busy with life - did you ever resolve the issue?

Any chance you were using Windows 10 Pro N or something odd like that?

I had the same issue on Windows 11. I installed and reinstalled many Visual C++ redistributable packages. Only after installing both x64 and x86 versions of VC++2010 SP1 i got it working.

I've added this troubleshooting step - thanks @rafalmaciejewski

That chocolatey package should install both of the required packages. I'm not adding it to the script as I recall I had problems with them in the past in certain circumstances.
