Error message MSVCP100.DLL

Programmes need certain files to function correctly. The Dynamic Link Library is one of these files. If the DLL file is not present, errors often occur when starting the programmes. As annoying as the display of the error message "msvcp100.dll is missing" is, the problem is quickly solved with the installation of Visual C++.

Quick guide:

Follow this link https://www.microsoft.com/de-DE/download/ and then click on "Download".
Select all files and click on "Next" at the bottom right.
Finally, click on "Install". Select the option "Reset Microsoft Visual C++ 2010 x86 Redistributable to its original state" if Visual C++ is already installed on your computer and then click "Next" to complete the installation.
Fix error message - MSVCP100.DLL

1st step:

Click on the link to the Mircosoft download centre. Then go to "Download".

2nd step:

Place a tick next to the file you want. If you do not know exactly which file you need, you can also select all available files. Then click on "Next" at the bottom right.

Step 3:

Finally, click on "Install" and wait until the installation has been carried out. If Visual C++ is already installed on your computer, you will see the window shown above. Select the option "Reset Microsoft Visual C++ 2010 x86 Redistributable to original status" and then go to "Next". This completes the installation of the file.

Note: The trick seems to work for some users only with the installation of the 32-bit version. If the error message still appears after installing the 64-bit version, try "vcredist_x86.exe".
