This tutorial contains instructions to fix the following error in Windows 10 startup or when you try to run or install a program: “The program can’t start because VCRUNTIME140.dll is missing from your computer. Try reinstalling the program to fix this problem”.
The “VCRUNTIME140.dll” file is a part of Microsoft Visual C++ 2015 and is required by applications that are developed using Visual Studio 2015. If the “VCRUNTIME140.dll” file is missing or corrupted, then the system displays the “VCRUNTIME140.DLL is missing” error whenever the file “VCRUNTIME140.DLL” is required to run an application.
