[SOLVED] Launch error on Windows 7

[DeadlyDan]

I'm getting this message:

"The program can't start because MSVCR120.dll is missing from your computer. Try reinstalling the program to fix this problem."

I already installed the VC 2015 redist that comes with the game.

Have you tried verifying the game files? Haven't had the problem myself but it might work.

[DeadlyDan]

'verified game cache' found no errors.

I checked Windows System32 folder. I got a file called msvcr120_clr0400.dll but not MSVCR120.dll

strange...

I have these installed:
MS VC++ 2005
MS VC++ 2008
MS VC++ 2010
MS VC++ 2012
MS VC++ 2015

Microsoft Visual C++ 2013 was missing.

If you scroll down on that page you will see msvcr120.dll listed under 'File information'.

Maybe this redist should be included with the game?

I hit this also, the game includes the VC libs, but ver 2015, not 2013

Worked for me. Thank you
