Title: Release 7 Missing DLL Error
Post by: BigAl3D on 2021-08-05, 16:42:15
Not sure if this is the right place to post this question, but here it is. I'm a Mac guy, so these errors stop me cold since the error is not specific. I installed r7 on my other Windows 10 renderbox with no issues. On this Windows 10 installation, I'm getting this VRCRUNTIME140.DLL error. My first question, is this telling me that reinstalling the Corona installer will fix this? I also got this error when unpacking the ZIP and running it from there, so I'm confused on how to fix this.

Any suggestions is much appreciated.

Your problem is a missing/broken Microsoft Visual C++ Redistributable installation, you should be able to fix this with installing this https://aka.ms/vs/16/release/vc_redist.x64.exe and then Corona V7 again.

Thanks for that tip. Well that sounded like a simple fix, but after installing C++ again and rebooting, I'm still getting that error.

Bummer.

Looks like a case for the support then.

Success! I also installed the 32-bit redistributable and now it worked. Thanks for pointing me in the right direction.

Ah, great to hear :)

I keep forgetting 32 bit still exists ;)

Since I have a 64-bit install, didn't think I needed that.
