How to download vcruntime140_1.dll from the official site

First of all, when this error appears, you should not download a separate VCruntime140_.dll file, try to put it in the C: \ Windows \ System32 or C: \ Windows \ SYSWOW64 folder - this is not the most working method.

The right solution is to download from the official site and install the distributed components of Visual C ++ 2019 on your computer. Important: If you have already installed these components, only one of the versions is downloaded to a 64-bit system (for example, x64 on 64-bit Windows), an error can be saved, since many programs need a 32-bit (x86) file even in x64 systems. Use the following steps to correct the error:

1. Go to the official website https://support.microsoft.com/ru-ru/help/2977003/the-tentest-supported-visual-c-downloads
2. In the Visual Studio 2015, 2017 and 2019 section for Windows 10, 8.1 and Windows 7 64-bit Download files vc_redist.x86.exe and vc_redist.x64.exe . For a 32-bit system - only the first file.

   

3. In turn, run both installers and go through the installation process. The file will be automatically copied to the desired locations on the computer and correctly registered in the system.

After that, it is advisable to restart the computer and check if the system error is saved "it is not possible to continue the execution of the code, since the system did not detect VCRUNTime140_1.dll," most likely the problem will be solved.

Additional ways to correct the error

For some programs, the method described may not give results, in which case try this option:

1. Go to the folder with the program (with the .exe executable file) and try to copy the VCRUNTIMEDLL file to it from the System32 folder.
2. If the previous paragraph does not help, then try to replace it with a file from SYSWOW64 (there are different instances of the file in these folders).
3. If there is a separate folder with libraries in the program folder (for example, the "bin" folder), you can copy VCRUNTIMEDLL to it.
