the code execution cannot proceed because VCRUNTIME140_1.dll was not found

[TinBuzan]

I ran into this error while trying to run the obs64.exe on Windows 10 x64:

• the code execution cannot proceed because VCRUNTIME140_1.dll was not found -

Solution:

Download VCRUNTIME140_1.dll here: https://www.dll-files.com/vcruntime140_1.dll.html#:~:text=The%20code%20execution%20cannot%20proceed,dll%20was%20not%20found.&text=dll%20is%20either%20not%20designed,the%20software%20vender%20for%20support.

After unzipping, take the .dll fill and drag it into the same directory as the obs64.exe file & run the .exe file again.

This can be done for any missing .dll files

...please don't download DLL files from random websites.

Since that file belongs to the Visual C++ redistributable, why not download it from the official source?

It would also make sure any VCRUNTIME files required not only by RPAN Studio, but also by other programs are all installed correctly.

As a certified PC technician, I second this.

This is still happening as of the latest release. I installed the Visual C++ redistributable from the microsoft link above, but get the same error.

Just to check, have you attempted to fully reinstall since this issue happened? (you should manually uninstall the old RPANStudio first, as I believe when reinstalling a new one it does not always fully uninstall it). This should have been fixed.

If you've tried this, have you tried using the instructions in the r/RPANStudio wiki?

It was a fresh install on a brand new computer, actually. The wiki link just says "Sorry, this is a moderator-only page." Is there a relevant section you can copy and paste?

Ah sorry, this link should work: https://www.reddit.com/r/RPANStudio/wiki/index#wiki_vcruntime140_1.dll_was_not_found

Ah, yeah I did find that in the quickstart guide, but that C++ runtime is already part of the things I tried reinstalling. According to the document, it shouldn't even be a problem in the latest release, either, so I'm confused about what could be going wrong.
