doctapp Posted October 12, 2015 Posted October 12, 2015 Hi, I get the following crash since hotfix2 as soon as I double-click the DCS World OpenBeta icon: "The program can't start because MSVCP120.dll is missing from your computer" I tried updating and re-installing DCS, but always get this. Thanks

doctapp Posted October 13, 2015 Author Posted October 13, 2015 It seems the DCS/distr/vcredist_x64.exe is the wrong version. It was already installed also. The fix was to manually download and install the version from: http://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=40784 Please package the right redistributable version :)

jackadision Posted September 12, 2016 Posted September 12, 2016 I would never trust those dll download websites, the only official (I hesitate to say trustworthy...) source is obviously Microsoft in this case. Besides that, just copying it to the system32 directory doesn't work anymore for several reasons. First, since Windows Vista, Visual C++ runtime libs need to be in the appropriate WinSxS subdirectory and registered properly before windows tries to load any VC runtime lib. This allows proper version control and prevents overwriting with malicious versions. Secondly, on x64, system32 is the wrong place anyway, despite MS keeping the name, system32 houses your 64bit dlls, while 32bit applications run inside an abstraction layer called "Windows on Windows64", short WoW64, and Rift is 32 bit. Hence 32bit dlls need to go into the SysWoW64 directory anyway. For more you can visit: http://www.pcerror-fix.com/how-to-fix-msvcp120-dll-missing-error
