Re: Need For Speed MSVCR100.DLL was not found

I installed Need for speed through the EA PC App on my Windows PC and got the same error messages you are facing when i tried to start the game.

The solution for me was:

1. Only uninstall the Microsoft Visual C++ 2010 x86 Redistributable, from the Control panel or Settings and then Apps.

2. Download and install the Microsoft Visual C++ 2010 x86 Redistributable (vcredist_x86.exe).

3. Download and install the Microsoft Visual C++ 2010 x64 Redistributable (vcredist_x64.exe) if you have an 64-bit Windows (i think most computers should have it in 2023).

The two programs (vcredist_x86.exe) and (vcredist_x64.exe) can be found on the following page under "Visual Studio 2010 (VC++ 10.0) SP1 (no longer supported)":
