Missing DLL: [msvcp120.dll] Error: 0xC1

Hello,

I keep getting this error when starting the game.

"Missing DLL: [msvcp120.dll] Error: 0xC1"

- I've tried to repair the game through origin
- I've uninstalled the game and reinstalled
- I've uninstalled Visual C++ Redistributable both x64 and x86
- I've uninstalled Origin and Reinstalled
- I've updated graphics driver
- I've updated Windows 7
- I've manually copied msvcp120.dll from Windows/SystemWOW and Windows/System32 into the Sims 4 folder
- I've restarted my computer

Never had this problem before with any other game, and I've been looking around for a solution for a while. I saw that it was a recurring problem with Battlefield 3/4, and could usually be fixed by changing the game settings in origin from 32bit to 64bit, but Sims 4 has no such options in Origin.

Help, please.

    After moving the whole game over to my laptop and running a repair on the origin on my laptop, the game apparently works on both laptop and stationary if I use the files that were repaired on the laptop.

    So I guess problem solved?
