Краткий ответ

The MSVCP140.dll error means the Visual C++ 2015-2022 redistributable is missing. Install Microsoft's official vc_redist packages (x64 and x86), restart, and the error is gone. Never download the DLL file itself — it's a malware risk.

Microsoft Visual C++ 2015-2022 (x64) resmî kurulumu

Kurulumdan sonra x86 paketini de kurun; ikisi birlikte çalışır.

01 — Пошаговое решение

Пошаговое решение

  1. STEP 01

    Download the official Visual C++ setup

    Get the x64 package from aka.ms/vs/17/release/vc_redist.x64.exe — Microsoft's official short link.

  2. STEP 02

    Install the x64 package

    Run the file, accept the license and click Install. If it says already installed, choose 'Repair'.

  3. STEP 03

    Install the x86 package too

    Also install the 32-bit package from aka.ms/vs/17/release/vc_redist.x86.exe. Many games use 32-bit components; both are needed.

    x64 and x86 don't replace each other — install both.

  4. STEP 04

    Restart the computer

    Reboot after installation and launch the game again. The error should be gone.

  5. STEP 05

    If it persists, verify game files

    In Steam: right-click the game > Properties > Installed Files > Verify integrity of game files.

Советы

  • If setup says 'another installation in progress', reboot and retry.
  • Verify success under Settings > Apps > 'Visual C++ 2015-2022 Redistributable'.

Часто задаваемые вопросы

Can I download MSVCP140.dll from DLL sites?

No. DLL sites host outdated or infected files. Install Microsoft's package instead — it places the DLL where the system expects it.

Is Visual C++ 2015-2022 enough for old games?

Yes, it covers all versions from 2015 to 2022. Older titles may additionally need the DirectX 9 runtime.

The error appears in an app, not a game?

Same fix — MSVCP140.dll is used by many Windows programs. Restart the app after installing.
