OOTP Developments Forums - View Single Post - Help. Just bought and installed. Getting an error on start.

Hi

I just bought and downloaded the game. When I click the OOTP22 icon to launch the game, I get a OOTP22_X64.EXE - SYSTEM ERROR pop up.

It says:
The program can't start because VCRUNTIME140_1.dll is missing from your computer. Try reinstalling the program to fix this problem.

I just downloaded it right from the link on my purchase receipt. How can something be missing?

Can someone help me to find this missing file and put it in the right place? I previously have OOTP21 and OOTP20 on the same computer and they work fine.

(I have downloaded and installed the 1.4G ootp22_windows_single_folder_setup AND the 1.7G ootp22_windows_single_folder_setup. Neither worked). Is that file somewhere in my OOTP21 or OOTP20 files that I could just copy and paste? Where would I find it and where would i paste it?)

Thanks!
