dll Error

[AyeItsSebastian]

I have been having errors with my steam games where it keeps telling me I have missing dll's. I have tried everything and when I say everything, I literally mean everything. Yes, I have tried checking the integrity of the game files. Yes, I have tried installing visual studios distributor. Yes, I have tried a clean install of windows and wen't as far as whipping my entire PC. Yes, I have uninstalled and reinstalled my games, even going as far as trying it on both of my PC drives. Yes, I have tried disabling and enabling my anti-virus. Yes, I have downloaded dll's out of being desperate. (I am aware that you should not trust downloading single dll's from websites.)
There, are so many things that I have tried that I can't even remember most of them. All I know is that steam is going downhill, and I expect full, original priced, refunds, even on games I only paid half price on, if they don't fix this issue soon.

What exactly is your error message ?

I recently finiished a clean install on a new SSD. Windows and Steam just aren't playing nice at all together - nothing devestating, just annoying with the repetitive troubleshooting. Mostly minor ActtivX dll's when launching a game on Steam.

No, it is a major problem for me. Nothing I do fixes the problem and it has been over a month now.

Can you give us your system specs, and tell us what the actual error message says and what the dll is called.. there are thousands of them.. We cant help without proper specs and what the error actually says.

If nothing solves the issue, I'd suggest try reinstalling a new OS. I'd say there's definitely something wrong with your OS. Never had any error / crashing issues on this Windows 7 Ultimate.

the dll it says I am missing is dll 110. And it is just a "dll 110 missing." Also, I run windows ten not 7 and I cant degrade and wouldnt even if I could. Either way, if it was my OS, it would be happening to other non steam apps and games that I launch but it doesnt.

Tried installing this specifically? C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\Dying Light\_CommonRedist

Also latest net framework.

I've been playing on this Windows 7 Ultimate for several years now, two years Dying Light without any crashes or any other issues. Never had any issues in other games either.

Right now, I don't like Windows 8 or 10, and wouldn't upgrade even if I could, not even for free.

If not OS, it's your PC / laptop.

Try this if you haven't yet http://www.tomshardware.co.uk/faq/id-3091492/fix-missing-msvcp110-dll-error-windows.html

You may have faulty software, try a complete reinstall of it. Also run the game as an administrator. You may also try running it as Windows 7 compatibility.

It would be useful if you provide your specs.

I don't know then if nothing worked, only thing I can suggest is trying different OS.

Sorry your so reluctant to help us help you by adding the simple information we requested to do so. Until then, we cannot effectively help you.

I won't speak for others, but personally, I'm not inclined to continue a guessing game.

I was in the process of answering other questions so you can calm your tits. My system specs have nothing to do with why the dlls are missing. I dont need your help anymore anyways. I got my refunds at full price already. :^)
