vcruntime140_1.dll

Hello,

My computer keeps saying "vcruntime140_1.dll is missing from your system" anytime I try to run some programs or install new ones. How can I safely download and install it?

Thanks.

Henry.

 

VCRUNTIME140_1.dll

Hello,

I got a game recently but when I launched it it said VCRUNTIME140_1.dll was not found or something along those lines. Maybe I have deleted something I shouldn't have when I was cleaning my PC before that. Any help would be appreciated.

 

VCRUNTIME140_1.dll Missing: where to get?

When trying to open app Creation Kit (for Bethesda's Skyrim SE computer game) ​I get error: "VCRUNTIME140_1.dll was not found. Reinstalling the program may fix this problem." Reinstalled app 3 times--but
VCRUNTIME140_1.dll is still not on my Win10 machine, as per searches with FileExplorer.

Went to Microsoft.com to download and install Microsoft Visual C++ 2015 Redistributable (which apparently contains VCRUNTIME140_1.dll as default); but MS blocked download, as I already have the newer 2017 version of program (which is
needed for Fallout 4 and FO4 CK, as well as other new games).

So I tried installing Microsoft Visual C++ 2015-2019 Redistributable, thinking it would provide
VCRUNTIME140_1.dll---but it does not.

How do I get VCRUNTIME140_1.dll? Using Google, there are internet ads from no less than FIVE 3rd party providers on the web offering to "help" with free downloads of this specific .dll--so it seems I'm not the only
app user experiencing this problem. Google it, or use Edge, and see for yourself.

But I'd prefer to get this file from Microsoft if at all possible, unless there is a specific 3rd party provider you can recommend. Can you help me?
