Mass Effect msvcr100.dll Missing
Hello hello! I have been having the issue where when I try to launch Mass Effect, I get the msvcr100.dll is missing warning. This issue also appears to persist in ME2 and ME3, although the warnings I got when trying to launch those was slightly different (I forgot what they are, but I can try to launch again if it seems important).
I have read through the many threads on this forum supposedly solving the issue, but they are pretty dated (3+ years old), and I myself have not found any success. So far I have attempted to uninstall/reinstall the game itself, and I have also uninstalled and reinstalled the following C++ Redistributable Packages:
- Microsoft Visual C++ 2005 Redistributable version 8.0.61001
- Microsoft Visual C++ 2005 Redistributable version 8.0.56336
- Microsoft Visual C++ 2005 Redistributable (x64) version 8.0.59192
- Microsoft Visual C++ 2005 Redistributable (x64) version 8.0.61000
- Microsoft Visual C++ 2010 x64 Redistributable version 10.0.40219
- Microsoft Visual C++ 2013 Redistributable (x64) version 12.0.30501
- Microsoft Visual C++ 2013 Redistributable (x64) version 12.0.40664
- Microsoft Visual C++ 2013 Redistributable (x86) version 12.0.30501
- Microsoft Visual C++ 2015-2019 Redistributable (x64) version 14.29.30133
- Microsoft Visual C++ 2015-2019 Redistributable (x86) version 14.28.29913
None of these have worked. I am unsure where to go from here, so any help would be appreciated.
Ok, VC++ 2010 is fully installed.
- Go here.
- Download the "DirectX End-User Runtime Web Installer"
- Run the installer.
- Reboot after the installation finished.
- Test.
