The program cannot start because MSVCR100.dll is missing

Asked By John A Benbow 20 points N/A Posted on - 01/20/2014

Hi,

I just installed Riff game on my laptop with Windows 7 and when I tried to open it this SystemError window appeared. I have uninstalled the game, rebooted the laptop and install it again, but I couldn’t get rid of this problem. I really want to make this game to work so is there anyone who can help me to run this game and tell me why have this error and how can I solve it in the future if I will have it with other games.

Thank you !

The program cannot start because MSVCR100.dll is missing

Hello my friend,

This is a very common error that occurs to those application that is built with Microsoft Visual C++ 2010. The program you’re trying to run requires the necessary runtime libraries to perform action and load.

Install Microsoft Visual C++ 2010 Redistributable. This will install the runtime files and components to run your program though you don’t have Microsoft Visual Studio 2010.

• Microsoft Visual C++ 2010 SP1 Redistributable x86
• Microsoft Visual C++ 2010 SP1 Redistributable x64

Cheers!
