Library msvcp100.dll: what is it, and how to fix errors in its operation?

Surely many fans of modern computer games are well aware of the situation when, when trying to launch a multimedia application, the system suddenly issues a warning that the program can not be started (msvcp100.dll is not found or is missing). Let's see how to fix this situation.

Msvcp100.dll: what is this?

Before you begin to fix the problem itself, you need to understand what the functions of this component are. When you run a certain type of application, the system can issue a message that the msvcp100.dll component is missing. What is it, we now and understand.

In fact, as it is already clear from the file extension, msvcp100.dll is a standard dynamic library. It is present in the core package Microsoft Visual C ++ 2010, which provides interaction of the operating system with various multimedia applications written in C ++ for Windows. Most often these are games, although the errors associated with the component msvcp100.dll may occur in other programs that actively use the graphical capabilities of modern computers.

Sometimes, whether due to incorrect user actions, either because of the damage to the file itself, whether due to violations in the operation of the "operating system" itself, or because of the impact of viruses, a system message may appear about the impossibility of launching a program due to That the file itself is not found or is simply missing.

So it turns out that the favorite game does not start. What to do in this case? Do not despair! There are at least two ways to solve this problem.

Download the Microsoft Visual C ++ 2010 package

Consider one of the options for fixing the error in the example of Windows 7. Since the file msvcp100.dll for Windows 7 is not recognized by the system, the easiest solution would seem to be to load this component. Yes, in part it is (this will be discussed a little later). However, according to many experts, it seems much more logical to download the full package of Microsoft Visual C ++ 2010, especially since it is completely free. In addition, if you upload only one file, you can not guarantee that there will not be any other trouble (the same error, but already, for example, the msvcp110.dll library).

Actually, in this version, everything is simple. You need to go to the official site of Microsoft Corporation and from the Download Center to download the whole package, and then install it into the system. This is the simplest way, especially since absolutely all components will be installed automatically, and in the future, at least after the installation, the error will disappear completely.

Error "msvcp100.dll is missing ...": fix by downloading the original file

On the other hand, you can do otherwise. Continuing the theme "msvcp100.dll: what is this?", We'll look at a way to load and integrate a single file into the system. True, this method is only suitable if the user is firmly sure that only this component is really missing.

In general, the msvcp100.dll file itself can download all versions of Windows, including the same "seven", from a variety of Internet resources. The only thing that you should pay attention to is its mandatory checking by antivirus software after downloading to the computer.

Before downloading, you must select the version of the library, depending on the system capacity (you can see it in the properties of the computer). After downloading the file, you need to integrate it into the system, by placing other owls into the place where the system will look for it when the multimedia application is launched.

For 32-bit systems, this is the System32 folder in the Windows directory, for systems with 64-bit architecture, this is the SysWOW64 folder. As you already know, you need to download the file either for 32-bit or 64-bit systems. Typically, the sites that offer this file for download, there are two versions.

Registration in the system

Now you need to register a new component in the system. To do this, use either the command line or the "Run" menu (the quick call is Win + R), where regsvr32 MSVCP100.dll is written for the 32-bit system, and for the 64-bit system the first part of the command changes to regsvr64. In principle, it is possible to register and simply regsvr, but the system can issue a failure for execution (you never know what), so it's better to use commands that are certainly suitable to the bit depth of the "operating system".

If nothing helps

As you already know, the first option is much preferable. True, and its use, along with the usual load of the library, can not always give a positive result. What else can you do?

Well, first of all, any user has a universal tool - system recovery. You just need to specify the date or time when the failure occurred for the first time, and restore the system to its original state, which preceded the appearance of the problem. If the control point in the list is not displayed, you need to expand it by selecting the sub-point showing all available points.

However, the problem may be not only in the package Microsoft Visual C ++ 2010. It can be that the package DirectX requires patching or updating. Here the problem is solved similarly (downloading the distribution from the official resource of the Microsoft Download Center with the subsequent installation).

By the way, the same goes for the Microsoft NET package. Framework - it in all this situation plays not the last role.

Sometimes the problem can be the damage to the user profile (this also happens). In this case, you can create a new user profile with administrator rights and try to open the desired application from under it.

Conclusion

Well, actually, on the topic "msvcp100.dll: what is this?" And that's it. As you can see, it's better to use the simplest way to correct errors related to the lack of multimedia processing components (in particular, graphics). As an option, if such solutions do not help, you still have to reinstall additional software products, but, as practice shows, in most cases, the main option is enough. You can, of course, use utilities such as DLL Suite, but it's better to use official sources directly.
