Windows 10: MSVCP140.dll not designed for windows.

So I have looked around, and found the solution lies in reinstalling Visual C++ 2015 redistributables. So I did that. Repeatedly. It does not fix the error. I uninstalled all VC++'s to no avail. I reinstalled the program asking for it (Origin). Repeatedly. Also, it complains "igoproxy64.dll" is bad as well. I suspect they are related. I know igoproxy64 is Origin-related. Any thoughts, anyone?

I have Win10x64, build 1909. This problem is relatively recent, but I cant pin it down to a single incident or circumstance that could have caused it. It has been happening since 1903. I did try "Run As Admin" on the vc 2015 installer. The installer immediately comes back as successful.

Hi,

This occurs when the program you are trying to run requires the MSVCP140.dll file to be present on your computer system. MSVCP140.dll is a Microsoft C Runtime Library file of size around 626 KB, located in the System32 folder, and is installed by Microsoft
Visual Studio. If any DLL file goes missing or gets corrupted, you can see such error messages on your screen.

With that in mind, we'd like to know:

• Does it only affect a specific program?
• Were you able to launch this program before?
• Have you tried reinstalling the program?

If you have reinstalled the app the issue still persists, download and install the Microsoft Visual C++ Redistributable for Visual Studio

here.

Let us know how it goes.
