I'm going to be crazy: MSVCP120.dll - no way to fix it...

agoguz · Mar 3, 2020

Hi to all,
I'm trying to install a program requiring the VC++ 2013 package (I think).
My PC: Win10 (latest version + driver)

The point is: it refuses to install; after some debug with the dev of this app, using a tool for dependencies check, we are at the point to understand:

I tryied already to:

1) repair each previous installation without success

2) to uninstall + reboot and reinstall the latest VC++ 2013 both 32 & 64bit (directly downloaded from MS) without success
3) SFC /SCANNOW in adm cmd + reboot , all OK -> no news
4) DISM /Online /Cleanup-Image /RestoreHealth , all OK + reboot -> no news

NOTE: aways as Admin, if I try to regsvr32.exe C:\WINDOWS\system32\msvcp120.dll no problem
but if I try to regsvr32.exe C:\WINDOWS\SysWOW64\msvcp120.dll I got this error (sorry it's in Italian)

I should be "The module "C:\..." it was not loaded, but the entry point DllRegisterServer was not found. Be sure "C:\Wind..." is a valid OCX or DLL, then retry.."

5) so I also checked and downloaded the latest 64bit version dll from internet + MD5 + virustotal -> no changes...

Someone have an idea different then burn this PC?

The paths are different. Copy the msvcp120.dll to the SysWOW64 folder and try the command again. (If I'm understanding you correctly)

It's already there:

The fact that the file exists in a location does not guarantee (though I'll admit that in 99+% of situations it implies) that the DLL file is registered.

See: register missing dll at DuckDuckGo
then try re-registering it to see if that works.

If not, then I'd suggest Doing a Windows 10 Repair Install or Feature Update Using the Windows 10 ISO file

Try all of the above in safe mode.

Le differenze sono nel 2012, nel 2013 e nel 2015-2019 (non hai installato la versione x86); il 2017 non ce l'ho.
(Differences are in 2012, in 2013 and in 2015-2019 (you didn't install x86 version); I don't have 2017.)
