    windows 10: 'MSVCR120.dll is either not designed to run on Windows or it contains an error.'

    Hi,

    Since you are getting same error "C:\WINDOWS\SYSTEM32\MSVCR120.dll is either not designed to run on Windows or it contains an error".

    We suggest that you refer to this
    thread
    as some customers are also having the same issue and try to check the suggested fix of Santosh_Rai.

    Let us know how it goes.

  3. MSVCP120.dll is either not designed to run on Windows or it contains an error. Please help to fix nothing has worked.

    Hi,

    It's really odd that half of your programs won't run because of the error message "MSVCP120.dll is either not designed to run on Windows or it contains an error". The
    .dll could be the culprit behind why the error message is showing up. However, let's try if these steps will make a difference:

    • We're going to test it first with one of your programs. Uninstall one of the programs that is experiencing the issue.
    • Manually replace the DLL once done uninstalling the program.
    • Remove MSVCR120.dll from c:\Windows\System32\MSVCR120.dll.
    • Download and install Visual C++ Redistributable Packages for Visual Studio 2013.
    • Restart your computer.
    Download C++ 2013 library on this link.

    3. Install the program again that you've uninstalled using an

    account or user profile that has Administrator rights and

    Administrator privileges. You may also need to right-

    click and Run the program As Administrator.

    4. Once done installing the program, run it and see if the

    issue persists.

    We're looking forward to your feedback.
