Have you checked your root folder to make sure you have that DLL? I can send it as a dropbox link if you need it. You can also try verifying the game cache instead of reinstalling.

yes and its not there. apparently im missing 2 folders. mfc140u.dll and the vcruntime140.dll

if you could send those to me to try that would be great!

I don't have mfc140u.dll in my game files. Are you sure that's the name? And have you tried verifying the game cache? It should replace any missing files.

hmm thats weird. yes i verified but im doing it again just to make sure. it says "the code execution cannot proceed because mfc140u.dll and VCRUNTIME140.dll was not found. reinstalling the program may fix this problem (it didnt)
