Premiere Pro won't start, MFPlat.dll not found

I installed Premiere Pro. But the application will not start and I get a error - The code execution cannot proceed because MFPlat.dll not found. Reinstalling the program may fix this problem. 

 

I have tried uninstall/reinstall several times. I also tried Premiere Rush 1.5 and I get the same error. I need to edit a video urgently. Please help.

Hello, Downloading DLL from unknown sources can be harful to your PC, some of them contains viruses, I found pcpatchedup.com to be quite trustworthy as previously i downloaded a dll from the same and it was virus free as i even scanned it with my antivirus, So you too can get MFPlat.dll from the same,

Hope that helps,

Emma

I had to copy the mfplat.dll file from windows directory to the adobe program-folder, see details here:

For those who haven't figured it out yet, here's what worked for me.

 

1. Download appropriate media feature pack. Find the proper version here: https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/help/3145500/media-feature-pack-list-for-windows-n-editions

2. Run command prompt as admin. Enter this command:

    dism /online /enable-feature /featurename:MediaPlayback

 3. Restart pc. Pr and Ae should run by now.

Not good!

A lot of viruses and regedit entries were found by mbam and adwcleaner just after scanning whithout repair.

Better not to use this one...
