Full Version: Having trouble opening dolphin

Every time I try to open dolphin, it prompts me with an error message reading "The code execution cannot proceed because VCRUNTIME140.dll was not found. Reinstalling the program may help." The message appears 4 times in 4 different windows. I'm really confused about this because I've tried installing VCRUNTIME140.dll to system32 and such, but the error still appears. I've tried reinstalling dolphin too, but the same thing happens. I've tried doing a bit of research on the matter but nobody seems to have been in the same situation as me. Super confusing, would really like some help on this  Sad
Please do not put any files into system32 whatsoever! If you've put anything in there, you should restore system32 back to how it was!

The right way to solve this issue is to install the 64-bit Visual C++ redistributable, which you can find a link to at the top of https://dolphin-emu.org/download/ (in the red box)

I've downloaded the 32 bit and 64 bit files. What do I do with them now? Do I just leave them as is?
You need to run the 64-bit installer.
