The Code Execution cannot proceed because MSVCR110.dll was not found. HELP!!!!!!

[kayleegk]

I was literally JUST using After Effects CC 2021. I closed it, then felt like re-openning it and this starts popping up. 

I tried doing the Command Prompt (said it fixed my corrupt files, but still has it popping up) 

I tried reinstalling After Effects

I tried seeing if I have the MSVCR110.dll in my folders and it says I have 3?

I tried reinstalling 2015 Windows C++ again (I still have all the older versions)

I tried a full scan virus scan with McAfee (found no virus)

My computer is a x64 BASED PC

Can anyone help me? Where did this come from? Why is this happening?

There is a previous post about this on the Premiere forum. It looks like the solution is to reinstall a Microsoft´s software pack. Check it out.

I already have tried that. Nothing is working. I reinstalled the 2015-2019 Visual C++.

Wait I think I have figured it out! It ONLY worked when I re-installed the 2013 Visual C++ even though I have 2021 AE.

From Adobe Support. This fixes the problem, with Goddess as my witness.

Please check with the below steps.

Search Control panel in the search box.
>Programs
>Programs and feature
>There will be 7 Microsoft C++ files with the computer icon in the list.
>You have to repair the files individually.
>Right click on the first file and click on Uninstall

Please follow the steps for all the 7 files with the Computer Icon at the front.

Once the steps are performed please restart you PC and relaunch the application and check once.
