Fix “The program can’t start because MSVCR100.dll is missing from your computer.” error on Windows

Wednesday, April 18, 2012 posted by CSch

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

Usually the application that misses the dll indicates what version you need – if one does not work, simply install the other.

    istead of downloading vcredist_x86.exe file which is 4.8 MB
    it’s eavaliable to download the messing MSVCR100.dll file
    just download it
    http://mlfdll.com/en/msvcr100-dll/
    and put it inside
    C:\Windows\System32
