MSVCP140.dll Missing **SOLVED**
« on: July 18, 2017, 10:16:26 am »
Hi,

Recently I got rid of FSX from my computer which now only has P3D v3.4. I'm preparing to move to v4 however before I do I want to wait at least 1 or 2 updates. Now after I start P3D on the wait screen I get a message that MSVCP140.dll is missing and coult.exe can't run. I tried updating the win 7 but no luck. I also tried system file checker with no luck as well. Tried to reinstall both the addon manager and GSX but also no luck. Any suggestions on what I can do?

Best,
Omer

The file is part of the MS VC++ 2015 runtime redistributables. GSX installs it, using the official MS installer so, normally, this error shouldn't happen.

You can try downloading the installer manually, and restart Windows after the installation:

Download both the x86 and the x64 versions.
